For LPAR -> it's a valid test to verity max speed and actual speeds For z/VM -> the cards are virtualised on the host, thus any test of max & actual speeds is bogus For z/KVM -> the cards are virtualised on the host, thus any test of max & actual speeds is bogus Comparing z/VM and z/KVM with othe

Right, but the bug report is incomprehensible at the moment. And the device drivers involved here are different. What is happening is that systems are running at higher than advertised max. Where is the code for these checks? Can I clone and run them myself to debug what is happening? Regards, D

Validating the speed is a part of the network testing. Network tests don't run if the link speed is less than advertised max. E.g. if someone plugs a 10G card into a 1G network segment, the test will not run because it's pointless to test a 10G device at 1/10th the supported max speed. This is no

One can attempt to do: $ cat /sys/class/net/encc000/device/card_type in some modes it will tell you if the card is real or not, e.g.: "OSD_10GIG" is real card on an lpar. on KVM that file doesn't exist as device is a symlink to "virtio0". on z/VM it has: "Virt.NIC QDIO" Which is well, a fake vir

1) Note directories in /sys/class/net are actually symlinks to /sys/devices, and that you are looking at qeth kernel devices 2) On an LPAR, it's a real connection to a real card and I can see 1 connection 3) on z/KVM qeth is on virtio bus, thus it's all virtual. Only the host will know what
