Hi Ben - yeah I agree it is generally working great across versions - the
biggest pain IMHO would be subtle things - not an obvious Feature that breaks
works.
Instead an uncommon option that now has a different effect or a slight change
in the output. Both could seriously affect
@paelzer: New features in ethtool are certainly dependent on kernel
version, but it always used to stay backward compatible with (much)
older kernel versions. When I maintained it I would test on old versions
before every release.
It's possible that this backward compatibility is no longer
There are a few issues with very kernel dependent tools like ethtool but also
e.g. ip.
Some would want to get the newest version, especially to work better with HWE
Kernels.
But clearly that would be a huge regression risk due to e.g. changed output
breaking scripts.
There is no perfect
I'm also seeing this on 16.04 systems with linux-generic-hwe-16.04
packaged kernel running. Will there be a ethtool update for 16.04 also?

We had no Delta, the update is as said straight forward and works.
There are a few self-tests - all work on all architectures in the PPA build.
The message that was pointed out here can still show up if one really
has no access (no sudo for example), but that is fine as it is correct
in those
Ok, the merge was straight forward, no big issue of any kind.
It now looks like:
$ sudo ethtool -k ens3 | egrep
'udp-fragmentation-offload|generic-receive-offload'
udp-fragmentation-offload: off
generic-receive-offload: off
$ sudo ethtool -K ens3 gro on
$ sudo ethtool -k ens3 | egrep

Hi,
this is interesting.
Thanks for the ping.
Note: this needs no PPC or any other special arch, a VM guest is enough
to test it.
Up until very recently we were still on kernel 4.13 where this did not
occur.
With 4.13 - starting both off:
$ sudo ethtool -k ens3 | egrep
