 Hi Eli,

 rdma_port_link_layer() to rdma_port_get_link_layer().  This seems to
 match rdma_node_get_transport() better.
 
 In any case as I add patches to my branch, you can stop worrying about
 them, which should make keeping this series updated easier.
 

Hi Roland,

I am glad to hear this and will be happy to help.

[ewg] [PATCHv8 01/11] ib core: Add link layer property to ports

[Eli Cohen]

This patch adds the infrastructure for querying the link layer of a port, which
can be either IB_LINK_LAYER_INFINIBAND or IB_LINK_LAYER_ETHERNET. This is
required for adding IBoE support to Infiniband drivers so that branching
decisions can be made according to the value of this property. For devices that
do not provide an implementation for querying the link layer property of a
port, the returned value depends on the node transport such that
RMA_TRANSPORT_IB nodes will return IB_LINK_LAYER_INFINIBAND and
RDMA_TRANSPORT_IWARP nodes will return IB_LINK_LAYER_ETHERNET.
