>From man 1 ethtool:
-a --show-pause
Queries the specified Ethernet device for pause parameter
information.
-A --pause
Changes the pause parameters of the specified Ethernet device.
autoneg on|off
Specifies whether pause autonegotiation should be enabled.
rx on|off
Specifies whether RX pause should be enabled.
tx on|off
Specifies whether TX pause should be enabled.
You need to check the driver to see if it actually implements this
ethtool call, but that is how it should be configured.
