[openib-general] OpenSM 1.8.0 Merge Status and Operational Issue

[Hal Rosenstock]

Hi,

It;s the good news... bad news...

I've got the merged 1.8.0 OpenSM up and running. I have a number of
questions (which I'll send separately) but the one main problem I have
now is the following:

I have a 4x HCA port (1x/4x LinkWidthEnable and Supported) connected via
a 1x analyzer connected to a switch (so is 1x LinkWidthActive).
OpenSM does not seem to want to bring this port up. It tries once and
gives up until the physical link is cycled (cable pull and reinsertion).
It does work running over a 4x link with 4x neighbor ports.

I see the following:
	SM side				HCA side
	Set PortInfo (NoStateChange) ->
			<- GetResp PortInfo (Init)
	Set PortInfo (Armed) ->
			<- GetResp PortInfo (Armed)
	Set PortInfo (Active) ->
			<- GetResp PortInfo (Init)

I didn't track the settings on the switch side neighbor port but assume
they mirror this. OpenSM just seems to never try to bring this port
active again without some external stimulus. That's the secondary issue.

Can you try this ?
