Introduce the userspace entry point for PHY MSE diagnostics via
ethtool netlink. This exposes the core API added previously and
returns both capability information and one or more snapshots.
Userspace sends ETHTOOL_MSG_MSE_GET. The reply carries:
- ETHTOOL_A_MSE_CAPABILITIES: scale limits and timing information
- ETHTOOL_A_MSE_CHANNEL_* nests: one or more snapshots (per-channel
if available, otherwise WORST, otherwise LINK)
Link down returns -ENETDOWN.
Changes:
- YAML: add attribute sets (mse, mse-capabilities, mse-snapshot)
and the mse-get operation
- UAPI (generated): add ETHTOOL_A_MSE_* enums and message IDs,
ETHTOOL_MSG_MSE_GET/REPLY
- ethtool core: add net/ethtool/mse.c implementing the request,
register genl op, and hook into ethnl dispatch
- docs: document MSE_GET in ethtool-netlink.rst
The include/uapi/linux/ethtool_netlink_generated.h is generated
from Documentation/netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
