Perhaps, but then you would still have to explain how you would encode fraction in "12.5" MBytes/s into the the unsigned ints that are used in all places. In any case, even if the ethtool structures awkwardly specified the use of "bytes", the user-visible part should be in "bits", and this patch was to give an impetus. _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
