Hi all,
	I have questions about rte_eth_link_speed_to_str API.
	The API converts link speed to string for display, But it only
supports the following speeds, like that:
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_NONE: return "None";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_10M:  return "10 Mbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_100M: return "100 Mbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_1G:   return "1 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_2_5G: return "2.5 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_5G:   return "5 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_10G:  return "10 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_20G:  return "20 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_25G:  return "25 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_40G:  return "40 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_50G:  return "50 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_56G:  return "56 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_100G: return "100 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_200G: return "200 Gbps";
	case ETH_SPEED_NUM_UNKNOWN: return "Unknown";
	default: return "Invalid";

	In some cases, like bonding, for example, three slaves which
	link speed are 10Gbps, so link speed of bonding port will be
	30Gbps, but it shows "Invalid".

	Is this reasonable? any comments will be welcome.

		Best wishes

Is it meaningful to print combined slaves speed?
If yes, we can do better then this fixed switch/case logic,
it shouldn't be too hard given it is a standard uint32_t value.

Thanks Thomas,
	I am not sure if we need to  print combined slaves speed.
	How about others' opinion ? @all

	BTW, If yes, one possible option may be like that:
+const char *
+rte_eth_link_speed_to_str(uint32_t link_speed)
+{
+	char name[16];
+
+	if (link_speed == ETH_SPEED_NUM_NONE)
+		return "None";
+	if (link_speed == ETH_SPEED_NUM_NONE)
+		return "Unknown";
+	if (link_speed < ETH_SPEED_NUM_1G) {
+		snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "%u Mbps", link_speed);
+	} else {
+		snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "%u Mbps",
+			link_speed / ETH_SPEED_NUM_1G);
+	}
+
+	return name;
+}

But the float value is difficult to handle, like 2.5 Gbps for show. Any 
advices?

Since all the values are encoded numerically do some math.
This is what iproute2 has evolved to doing..


int print_color_rate(bool use_iec, enum output_type type, enum color_attr color,
                     const char *key, const char *fmt, unsigned long long rate)
{
        unsigned long kilo = use_iec ? 1024 : 1000;
        const char *str = use_iec ? "i" : "";
        static char *units[5] = {"", "K", "M", "G", "T"};
        char *buf;
        int rc;
        int i;

        if (_IS_JSON_CONTEXT(type))
                return print_color_lluint(type, color, key, "%llu", rate);

        rate <<= 3; /* bytes/sec -> bits/sec */

        for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(units) - 1; i++)  {
                if (rate < kilo)
                        break;
                if (((rate % kilo) != 0) && rate < 1000*kilo)
                        break;
                rate /= kilo;
        }

        rc = asprintf(&buf, "%.0f%s%sbit", (double)rate, units[i],
                      i > 0 ? str : "");
        if (rc < 0)
                return -1;

        rc = print_color_string(type, color, key, fmt, buf);
        free(buf);
}

Thanks Stephen,
While I think this option is more clear and simple:
+const char *
+rte_eth_link_speed_to_str(uint32_t link_speed)
+{
+#define SPEED_STRING_LEN 16
+	static char name[SPEED_STRING_LEN];
+
+	if (link_speed == ETH_SPEED_NUM_NONE)
+		return "None";
+	if (link_speed == ETH_SPEED_NUM_UNKNOWN)
+		return "Unknown";
+	if (link_speed < ETH_SPEED_NUM_1G) {
+		snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "%u Mbps", link_speed);
+	} else if (link_speed % ETH_SPEED_NUM_1G != 0){
+		snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "%.1f Gbps",
+		(double)link_speed / ETH_SPEED_NUM_1G);
+	} else {
+		snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "%u Gbps",
+		link_speed / ETH_SPEED_NUM_1G);
+	}
+
+	return (const char *)name;
+}

How about any others' opinions, thanks.

Currently, link speed to string only supports specific speeds, like 10M,
100M, 1G etc.

This patch expands support for any link speed which is over 1M and one
decimal place will kept for display at most.

NACK

Nothing good will happen if you try to use the function to
print two different link speeds in one log message.

You are right.
And use malloc for "name" will result in memory leakage, which is also
not a good option.

BTW, do you think if we need to modify the function 
"rte_eth_link_speed_to_str"?

IMHO it would be more pain than gain in this case.

If ETH_SPEED_NUM_xyz values was an enum instead of #define, the default case could be removed from this switch, and the compiler would emit a warning if a new ETH_SPEED_NUM_xyz was introduced without adding a case for it in this function.

But, according to some coding standard, default case should be added in
"switch case" syntax.

It can be option to update the API as following in next ABI break release:

const char *
rte_eth_link_speed_to_str(uint32_t link_speed, char *buf, size_t buf_size);

For this a deprecation notice needs to be sent and approved, not sure
though if it worth.


Meanwhile, what do you think to update string 'Invalid' to something
like 'Irregular' or 'Erratic', does this help to convey the right message?

API versioning is possible here.

Agree, ABI versioning can be used here.

@Connor, what do you think?

Updating patch status as rejected, if you still pursue the feature
please send a separate patch that updates the API via ABI versioning.

Thanks,
