For this to work, you are going to have to modify the quanta on both ends of the link, otherwise increasing the quanta is actually going to shorten the pause time. > +What: /sys/class/net/<iface>/tx_pause_frame_holdoff > +Date: Oct 2020 > +KernelVersion: 5.11 > +Contact: Xu Yilun <yilun.xu@xxxxxxxxx> > +Description: > + Read-Write.

This is the wrong API for this. Please extend the ethtool -A|--pause API. Now that it is netlink, adding extra attributes should be simple. Andrew
