From: Roland Dreier <rol...@purestorage.com> Commit e9319b0cb00d ("IB/core: Fix SDR rates in sysfs") changed our sysfs rate attribute to return EINVAL to userspace if the underlying device driver returns an invalid rate. Apparently some drivers do this when the link is down and some userspace pukes if it gets an error when reading this attribute, so avoid a regression by not return an error to match the old code.
Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rol...@purestorage.com> --- I think I'd rather just add this, to get back closer to the original behavior even for non-fixed drivers (but I'll still merge the mlx4 patch, since that makes sense too). drivers/infiniband/core/sysfs.c | 9 +++++---- 1 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/infiniband/core/sysfs.c b/drivers/infiniband/core/sysfs.c index 83b720e..246fdc1 100644 --- a/drivers/infiniband/core/sysfs.c +++ b/drivers/infiniband/core/sysfs.c @@ -179,7 +179,7 @@ static ssize_t rate_show(struct ib_port *p, struct port_attribute *unused, { struct ib_port_attr attr; char *speed = ""; - int rate = -1; /* in deci-Gb/sec */ + int rate; /* in deci-Gb/sec */ ssize_t ret; ret = ib_query_port(p->ibdev, p->port_num, &attr); @@ -187,9 +187,6 @@ static ssize_t rate_show(struct ib_port *p, struct port_attribute *unused, return ret; switch (attr.active_speed) { - case IB_SPEED_SDR: - rate = 25; - break; case IB_SPEED_DDR: speed = " DDR"; rate = 50; @@ -210,6 +207,10 @@ static ssize_t rate_show(struct ib_port *p, struct port_attribute *unused, speed = " EDR"; rate = 250; break; + case IB_SPEED_SDR: + default: /* default to SDR for invalid rates */ + rate = 25; + break; } rate *= ib_width_enum_to_int(attr.active_width); -- 1.7.9.1 -- 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
