The parameter is called 'forced-slave'. See the man page:
ethtool -s devname [speed N] [duplex half|full] [port tp|aui|bnc|mii]
[mdix auto|on|off] [autoneg on|off] [advertise N[/M] |
advertise mode on|off ...] [phyad N] [xcvr internal|external]
[wol N[/M] | wol p|u|m|b|a|g|s|f|d...]
[sopass xx:yy:zz:aa:bb:cc] [master-slave preferred-
master|preferred-slave|forced-master|forced-slave] [msglvl
N[/M] | msglvl type on|off ...]
sudo ethtool -s eth10 master-slave forced-master
netlink error: master/slave configuration not supported by device (offset 36)
netlink error: Operation not supported
