This patchset adds support for Wake-on-Lan flexible filters to ethtool and to e1000e. Since this hardware feature is required for certification on Another Operating System(TM), it's likely that most current hardware supports it in one form or another.
To set a filter: $ ethtool -F ethx <filter num> <filter spec> where <filter spec> is a string of hex digits (or xx for ignore) describing bytes from the beginning of the expected packet. For example: $ ethtool -F eth0 0 00a055667788xxxx449976xx32 To show a filter: $ ethtool -f ethx <filter num> This feature gives more wakeup flexibility for people who need it.
