I'm looking to extend the work of Mitch Williams to support flexible filters. (http://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg60332.html} Looking at the problem, would it be a good idea to reflect WOL characteristics in the /sys filesystem (instead of requiring ethtool to set them)? Seems straightforward and easy enough. I know the VIA Rhinefet and Intel e1000 support filters -- and some freescale seems to have some front end that support filters...and we've also implemented filters in software... What I'm thinking of is a hierarchy in /sys/classes/net/<device>/wol/ wol/ /flex-filters /0 data -- hex data to match mask -- string of 1 and 0 -- if 1, the data is valid in the bit position ... /n data mask /wake_up_packet /traditional --r/w (0/1) /magic_packet /arp /unicast /multicast /broadcast /phy marty _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
