Rethtool -- ethtool data for Ruby

A Ruby wrapper for the SIOCETHTOOL ioctl

This is a (partial) wrapper around the many and varied things that the SIOCETHTOOL ioctl can do for you. The bits that are implemented are the ones I’ve needed for projects I’ve been working on. Adding more isn’t hard, though (all the really hard bits are already done, thank $DEITY).

Full documentation is provided at rubydoc.info. The story of Rethtool’s beginnings might also be of interest.
