When management firmware declares that the device is WoL-capable, the default driver behavior would be to allow the management firmware to take the decision of whether it's actually needed or not. Problem is ethtool interface doesn't have a 'default' kind of option, and user would see the interface WoL as disabled, which doesn't accurately reflect the actual configuration. More-so, if the user actually wants to explicitly disable WoL he'd have to first enable it [otherwise ethtool would block the command]. Instead of allowing management to make the decision, enable WoL by default on all devices capable of it. Signed-off-by: Yuval Mintz <Yuval.Mintz@cavium.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
