Can you please shed more light on what user interface is being used to program and manage those ACLs, i see it is ethtool from the code but the cover letter and commit messages do not provide any information about that. Also could you please explain what ethtool interfaces/commands are being implemented, in the commit messages or cover letter, either is fine. Thanks!
