Subject: [dpdk-dev] Q about testpmd and link speed settings
Date: Wed, 25 Nov 2020 15:55:11 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <F041DE53-0ABF-4A0A-974A-16167967ABD5@pensando.io> (raw)

Almost every PMD seems to do something like this (igb in this example):

	autoneg = (*speeds & ETH_LINK_SPEED_FIXED) == 0;

But testpmd’s parse_and_check_speed_duplex() doesn’t ever set the FIXED bit. It either sets AUTONEG (0) or the bit for one of the individual speeds.

Thus when I run a testpmd command like this:

	testpmd> port config all speed 100000 duplex full

The PMD gets a speed setting in eth_dev->data->dev_conf->link_speeds, but it doesn’t have the FIXED bit set.

The patch below corrects this behavior for me. For some reason it breaks the testpmd link_bonding_autotest though - does anyone with an understanding of the internals of the unit tests care to take a look at why?

	+ TestCase [51] : test_tlb_verify_promiscuous_enable_disable succeeded
	+ TestCase [52] : test_tlb_verify_slave_link_status_change_failover failed
	Port 8 must be stopped to allow configuration
	+ TestCase [53] : test_alb_change_mac_in_reply_sent failed
	Port 8 must be stopped to allow configuration
	+ TestCase [54] : test_alb_reply_from_client failed
	Port 8 must be stopped to allow configuration
	+ TestCase [55] : test_alb_receive_vlan_reply failed
	Port 8 must be stopped to allow configuration
	+ TestCase [56] : test_alb_ipv4_tx failed 

Does this sound reasonable or am I way off track?

Thank you,
Andrew
