So the two bits- > IsCommunicationManagementSupported and IsSM, should not be setttable? In terms of IB, PortInfo:CapabilityMask is RO from perspective of SM.

It is similar in terms of IsCommunicationManagementSupported bit where bit is set when CM module is loaded in kernel (in cm_add_one). -- Hal > Aishwarya > > <snip> > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
