The patch has been reworked so that the fields used are no longer reserved.
The QLogic PMA has a vendor specific capability. We are using the top 2 bits of the CapabilityMask2 to indicate the behavior is available. By not setting the bit 2 in the CapabilityMask, we are indicating that other PMA clients should ignore CapabilityMask2. As such no other tools should be confused by our setting of the 2 bits (because they should not look in CapabilityMask2 anyway). We purposely do not set the PortXmitWait CapabilityMask bit, this driver does not implement that capability. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
