Thanks.
I thought about embedding the structure to the port attr but it will
require changing all ULPs.
I will see what is the effort of the change.

	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
