Some provider's driver has supported to send port link event to ofed, but this function is implemented separately by each manufacturer. This series provides a solution in ib core, and remove the relevant codes of some manufacturers, supports reporting port active time during device registration and sending port error events when device is deregistered. The key point is how to shield the port event of the backup port in the ib bonding scenario. Since the active-backup control is judged by the vendor driver, so the ops.query_port of vendor would determine the port role. And there is no relevant data structure in ib_core, so modify struct ib_port_cache to store this information.
