[PATCH 4/4] [ethtool] ethtool: implement support for Energy Detect Power Down

From: Alexandru Ardelean
Date: Tue Sep 03 2019 - 09:06:55 EST


This change adds control for enabling/disabling Energy Detect Power Down
mode, as well as configuring wake-up intervals for TX pulses, via the new
ETHTOOL_PHY_EDPD control added in PHY tunable, in the kernel.
