Ok. I see. Actually the problem is that in do_portinfo() received PortInfo is not copied to target port's PortInfo (as I thought) and update is done for only selected fields. Wouldn't it be better to rework it in the way where we will not need to store useless (for simulator) PortInfo values as separate port structure fields? So incoming PortInfo buffer will be just copied (of course with caring about special fields - states, RO, etc..).
