I found e.g. this on upstream work on that topic: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/e515b840-c6f1-bc07-9369-c95e35257...@solarflare.com/T/ but I must confess I have not dug into upstream kernel sources to find out if this has been accepted in the kernel, and if so from what version. > > I don't think that spending time on that is a valuable thing, there > are more important tasks like testing or adding functionality. I really don't want to argue any political arguments on the merits of removing master/slave, blacklist/whitelist, black hat/white hat here, but I think "it is some effort" or "it concerns only few people" is not the strongest argument. *If* one considers it the right thing to do, then some minor effort in comparable with other minor changes is not out of line. /ralph
