One option could be to add support for Ethtool message levels in addition to the vnic_debug controlled messages. The Ethtool support would make this driver conform to ethtool similar to other Ethernet drivers and the vnic_debug messages will help in debugging the Infiniband related errors. Is ethtool support mandatory for a merge to 2.6.27 or can we consider it as a future enhancement while we first focus on moving this driver to use CONFIGFS ?
