Subject: [PATCH 14/14] ethtool: Support for FEC encoding control
As FEC settings and different FEC modes are mandatory
and configurable across various interfaces of 25G/50G/100G/40G,
the lack of FEC encoding control and reporting today is a source
for interoperability issues for many vendors
set-fec/show-fec option(s) are designed to provide control and report
the FEC encoding on the link.
$ethtool --set-fec swp1 encoding [off | RS | BaseR | auto]
Encoding: Types of encoding
Off : Turning off FEC
RS : Force RS-FEC encoding
BaseR : Force BaseR encoding
Auto : Default FEC settings for drivers, and would represent
asking the hardware to essentially go into a best effort mode.
Here are a few examples of what we would expect if encoding=auto:
- if autoneg is on, we are expecting FEC to be negotiated as on or off
as long as protocol supports it
- if the hardware is capable of detecting the FEC encoding on it's
receiver it will reconfigure its encoder to match
- in absence of the above, the configuration would be set to IEEE
defaults.
>From our understanding, this is essentially what most hardware/driver
combinations are doing today in the absence of a way for users to
control the behavior.
