[PATCH net-next v2 3/5] tools: ynl: ethtool: add --dbg-small-recv option
From: Hangbin Liu
Date: Wed Apr 08 2026 - 03:10:10 EST
Add a --dbg-small-recv debug option to control the recv() buffer size
used by YNL, matching the same option already present in cli.py. This
is useful if user need to get large netlink message.
