Wouldn't this lead to rather unexpected and inconsistent behaviour when the wakeup is disabled? As you don't touch the set_wol handler, I assume it will still allow setting enabled modes as usual so that you get e.g.
ethtool -s eth0 wol g # no error or warning, returns 0 ethtool eth0 # reports no modes enabled
The first command would set the enabled wol modes but that would be hidden from user and even the netlink notification would claim something different. Another exampe (with kernel and ethtool >= 5.6):
ethtool -s eth0 wol g ethtool -s eth0 wol +m
resulting in "mg" if device wakeup is enabled but "m" when it's disabled (but the latter would be hidden from user and only revealed when you enable the device wakeup).
This is a general problem discussed recently for EEE and pause autonegotiation: if setting A can be effectively used only when B is enabled, should we hide actual setting of A from userspace when B is disabled or even reset the value of A whenever B gets toggled or rather allow setting A and B independently? AFAICS the consensus seemed to be that A should be allowed to be set and queried independently of the value of B.

I've tested ethtool v5.6 on top of kernel v5.7-rc6, it looks like the scenario you described will not happen as it will not allow the user to enable the wol options with device wakeup disabled, not sure if I missed something:
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.6/power# echo disabled > wakeup
ethtool -s eno1 wol g netlink error: cannot enable unsupported WoL mode (offset 36) netlink error: Invalid argument
I've not digged into the code too much, but according to ethhl_set_wol(), it will first get the current wol options via dev->ethtool_ops->get_wol(), and both the wolopts and wol.supported are 0 when device wake up are disabled. Then ethnl_update_bitset32 might manipulate on wolopts and make it non-zero each is controdict with the precondition that no opts should be enabled due to 0 wol.supported.

But then there would be an inconsistence between A and B. I was thinking if there's a way to align them in kernel space and maintain the difference in user space?

You are right, I didn't realize that you report 0 even for supported WoL modes. However, this feels even more wrong from my point of view as then even the list of supported WoL modes would be hidden from user when the sysfs switch is off.
Also, AFAICS "ethtool -s <dev> wol d" would be still allowed but the behaviour would differ between ioctl and netlink code path: netlink would identify the operation as no-op and do nothing. But ioctl does not check new value against old one so that it would call your set_wol() handler which would set the (hidden) set of enabled WoL modes to empty which would mean WoL would stay disabled even after enabling the wakeup via sysctl. In other words, you would allow disabling all WoL modes (via ioctl) but not setting them to anything else.

I'm not sure what exactly you mean by maintaining the difference in userspace but there are many situations like this and we usually do not block the ability to query or set A when the "main switch" is off. For example, you can add IPv4/6 addresses to an interface when it is down, even if you cannot receive or transmit packets with these addresses. Or you can set up netlilter rules in FORWARDING chain independently of the global ip_forward sysctl which can block all IPv4 forwarding.
Moreover, if we really wanted to report no supported and enabled WoL modes when device wakeup is disabled, it should be done for all network devices, not only in one driver.

I see, the WOL modes should be exposed anyway no matter what wake up setting it is, as it is read-only.
Also, AFAICS "ethtool -s <dev> wol d" would be still allowed but the behaviour would differ between ioctl and netlink code path: netlink would identify the operation as no-op and do nothing. But ioctl does not check new value against old one so that it would call your set_wol() handler which would set the (hidden) set of enabled WoL modes to empty which would mean WoL would stay disabled even after enabling the wakeup via sysctl. In other words, you would allow disabling all WoL modes (via ioctl) but not setting them to anything else.
I see, then there would be inconsistence between netlink and ioctl mode as a sequence.

This is a good point.
Moreover, if we really wanted to report no supported and enabled WoL modes when device wakeup is disabled, it should be done for all network devices, not only in one driver.
I think the examples have persuaded me that we should leave the ethtool code as it is now that, it is okay to let ethtool be unaware of device wake up ability. Besides, it would be overkilled if we try to 'fix' it for all device drivers.
