Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!

1 | SYSFS FILES | ||
2 | |||
3 | For each InfiniBand device, the InfiniBand drivers create the | ||
4 | following files under /sys/class/infiniband/<device name>: | ||
5 | |||
6 | node_type - Node type (CA, switch or router) | ||
7 | node_guid - Node GUID | ||
8 | sys_image_guid - System image GUID | ||
9 | |||
10 | In addition, there is a "ports" subdirectory, with one subdirectory | ||
11 | for each port. For example, if mthca0 is a 2-port HCA, there will | ||
12 | be two directories: | ||
13 | |||
14 | /sys/class/infiniband/mthca0/ports/1 | ||
15 | /sys/class/infiniband/mthca0/ports/2 | ||
16 | |||
17 | (A switch will only have a single "0" subdirectory for switch port | ||
18 | 0; no subdirectory is created for normal switch ports) | ||
19 | |||
20 | In each port subdirectory, the following files are created: | ||
21 | |||
22 | cap_mask - Port capability mask | ||
23 | lid - Port LID | ||
24 | lid_mask_count - Port LID mask count | ||
25 | rate - Port data rate (active width * active speed) | ||
26 | sm_lid - Subnet manager LID for port's subnet | ||
27 | sm_sl - Subnet manager SL for port's subnet | ||
28 | state - Port state (DOWN, INIT, ARMED, ACTIVE or ACTIVE_DEFER) | ||
29 | phys_state - Port physical state (Sleep, Polling, LinkUp, etc) | ||
30 | |||
31 | There is also a "counters" subdirectory, with files | ||
32 | |||
33 | VL15_dropped | ||
34 | excessive_buffer_overrun_errors | ||
35 | link_downed | ||
36 | link_error_recovery | ||
37 | local_link_integrity_errors | ||
38 | port_rcv_constraint_errors | ||
39 | port_rcv_data | ||
40 | port_rcv_errors | ||
41 | port_rcv_packets | ||
42 | port_rcv_remote_physical_errors | ||
43 | port_rcv_switch_relay_errors | ||
44 | port_xmit_constraint_errors | ||
45 | port_xmit_data | ||
46 | port_xmit_discards | ||
47 | port_xmit_packets | ||
48 | symbol_error | ||
49 | |||
50 | Each of these files contains the corresponding value from the port's | ||
51 | Performance Management PortCounters attribute, as described in | ||
52 | section 16.1.3.5 of the InfiniBand Architecture Specification. | ||
53 | |||
54 | The "pkeys" and "gids" subdirectories contain one file for each | ||
55 | entry in the port's P_Key or GID table respectively. For example, | ||
56 | ports/1/pkeys/10 contains the value at index 10 in port 1's P_Key | ||
57 | table. | ||
58 | |||
59 | MTHCA | ||
60 | |||
61 | The Mellanox HCA driver also creates the files: | ||
62 | |||
63 | hw_rev - Hardware revision number | ||
64 | fw_ver - Firmware version | ||
65 | hca_type - HCA type: "MT23108", "MT25208 (MT23108 compat mode)", | ||
66 | or "MT25208" | ||
