[ofw] port_attr structure

[Fab Tillier]

Hi Yossi,

 

There's no issue including the full port info in the port_attr
structure.  Initially the structure was setup to return commonly used
information.  It was not intended to be identical to the IB spec port
info.  I would recommend embedding the port_info structure into the
port_attr, instead of copying the fields.

Hi

 

I want to add more info to the port_attr structure (like link width
enable, link width enable).

I notice that the port_attr include only specific fields from the port
info structure of the IB spec.

Is there any reason why the port_attr structure in IBAL is different
from the IB spec port info (or at least include all its fields)

 

Yossi
