    "content": "The documentation for the FEC API is currently incomplete and contains\ninaccuracies in its descriptions of function parameters. \nSpecifically, the semantics of the fec_capa parameter in rte_eth_fec_set()\nis not well-defined. It does not provide information on what should\nbe done if only AUTO bit is set or one of the specified FEC modes is \nnot supported. Additionally, the fec_capa parameter in rte_eth_fec_get()\nimplies that more than one FEC mode can be obtained, but it is \nwrong. Furthermore, the behaviour is undefined in \nrte_eth_fec_set() when the fec_capa parameter is zero.\n\nTo address these issues, a patch series has been created that updates\nthe FEC API documentation, renames one of the parameters to improve \nits clarity and adds a check for zero fec_capability.\n\nDenis Pryazhennikov (3):\n  ethdev: update documentation for API to set FEC\n  ethdev: check that at least one FEC mode is specified\n  ethdev: rename parameter in API to get FEC\n\n lib/ethdev/rte_ethdev.c | 13 +++++++++----\n lib/ethdev/rte_ethdev.h | 25 ++++++++++++++-----------\n 2 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-)"
