o "min_tx_rate" option has been added for minimum Tx rate. Hence, for consistent naming, "max_tx_rate" option has been introduced for maximum Tx rate. o Change in v2: "rate" can be used along with "max_tx_rate". When both are specified, "max_tx_rate" should override. o Change in v3: * IFLA_VF_RATE: When IFLA_VF_RATE is used, and user has given only one of min_tx_rate or max_tx_rate, reading of previous rate limits is done in userspace instead of in kernel space before ndo_set_vf_rate. * IFLA_VF_TX_RATE: When IFLA_VF_TX_RATE is used, min_tx_rate is always read in kernel space. This takes care of below scenarios: (1) when old tool sends "rate" but kernel is new (expects min and max) (2) when new tool sends only "rate" but kernel is old (expects only "rate") o Change in v4 as suggested by Stephen Hemminger: * As per iproute policy, input and output formats should match. Changing display of max_tx_rate and min_tx_rate options accordingly. ./ip/ip link show p3p1 8: p3p1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 00:0e:1e:16:ce:40 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vf 0 MAC 2a:18:8f:4d:3d:d4, tx rate 700 (Mbps), max_tx_rate 700Mbps, min_tx_rate 200Mbps vf 1 MAC 72:dc:ba:f9:df:fd Signed-off-by:
