The netlink version of set_wol checks for not supported wolopts and avoids
setting wol when the correct wolopt is already set. If we do the same with
the ioctl version then we can remove these checks from the driver layer.

Hi Justin,

Are you planning follow-up patches for the driver layer?


I was planning to for the Broadcom drivers since those I can test. But I could do it across the board if that is preferred.

Are there cases where (in-tree) drivers provide set_wol byt not get_wol?
If so, does this break their set_wol support?


My original thought was to match netlink set wol behavior. So drivers that do that won't work with netlink set_wol right now. I'll skim around to see if any drivers do this. But I would reckon this should be a driver fix.

Thanks,
Justin


I see a driver at drivers/net/phy/microchip.c. But this is a phy driver set_wol hook.
