NAME

       IBPORTSTATE - handle port (physical) state and link speed of an InfiniBand port

SYNOPSIS

       ibportstate [options] <dest dr_path|lid|guid> <portnum> [<op>]

DESCRIPTION

       ibportstate  allows the port state and port physical state of an IB port to be queried (in
       addition to link width and speed being validated relative to the peer port when  the  port
       queried  is  a  switch  port), or a switch port to be disabled, enabled, or reset. It also
       allows the link speed/width enabled on any IB port to be adjusted.

OPTIONS

       <op>

              Supported ops: enable, disable, reset, speed, espeed, fdr10, width, query,
                     on, off, down, arm, active, vls, mtu,  lid,  smlid,  lmc,  mkey,  mkeylease,
                     mkeyprot (Default is query)

              enable,  disable, and reset are only allowed on switch ports (An error is indicated
              if attempted on CA or router ports)

              off change the port state to disable.

              on change the port state to enable(only when the current state is disable).

              speed and width are allowed on any port

              speed values are the  legal  values  for  PortInfo:LinkSpeedEnabled  (An  error  is
              indicated if PortInfo:LinkSpeedSupported does not support this setting)

              espeed is allowed on any port supporting extended link speeds

              fdr10  is  allowed  on  any  port supporting fdr10 (An error is indicated if port's
              capability  mask  indicates  extended  link  speeds  are  not   supported   or   if
              PortInfo:LinkSpeedExtSupported does not support this setting)

              width  values are legal values for PortInfo:LinkWidthEnabled (An error is indicated
              if PortInfo:LinkWidthSupported does not support  this  setting)  (NOTE:  Speed  and
              width changes are not effected until the port goes through link renegotiation)

              query  also  validates  port characteristics (link width, speed, espeed, and fdr10)
              based on the peer port. This checking is done when the port  queried  is  a  switch
              port  as  it relies on combined routing (an initial LID route with directed routing
              to the peer) which can only be done on a switch. This peer port validation  feature
              of query op requires LID routing to be functioning in the subnet.

              mkey,  mkeylease,  and  mkeyprot are only allowed on CAs, routers, or switch port 0
              (An error is generated if attempted on external  switch  ports).   Hexadecimal  and
              octal  mkeys may be specified by prepending the key with '0x' or '0', respectively.
              If a non-numeric value (like 'x') is specified for the mkey, then ibportstate  will
              prompt for a value.

   Addressing Flags
       -L, --Lid   The address specified is a LID

       -G, --Guid     The address specified is a Port GUID

       -D, --Direct     The address specified is a directed route

          Examples:
             [options] -D [options] "0"          # self port
             [options] -D [options] "0,1,2,1,4"  # out via port 1, then 2, ...

             (Note the second number in the path specified must match the port being
             used.  This can be specified using the port selection flag '-P' or the
             port found through the automatic selection process.)

       -s, --sm_port <smlid>     use 'smlid' as the target lid for SA queries.

   Port Selection flags
       -C, --Ca <ca_name>    use the specified ca_name.

       -P, --Port <ca_port>    use the specified ca_port.

   Local port Selection
       Multiple  port/Multiple CA support: when no IB device or port is specified (see the "local
       umad parameters" below), the libibumad library selects the port to use  by  the  following
       criteria:

          1. the first port that is ACTIVE.

          2. if not found, the first port that is UP (physical link up).

          If  a  port  and/or CA name is specified, the libibumad library attempts to fulfill the
          user request, and will fail if it is not possible.

          For example:

              ibaddr                 # use the first port (criteria #1 above)
              ibaddr -C mthca1       # pick the best port from "mthca1" only.
              ibaddr -P 2            # use the second (active/up) port from the first available IB device.
              ibaddr -C mthca0 -P 2  # use the specified port only.

   Configuration flags
       --config, -z  <config_file> Specify alternate config file.
          Default: /etc/infiniband-diags/ibdiag.conf

       -t, --timeout <timeout_ms> override the default timeout for the solicited mads.

       -y, --m_key <key>
              use the specified M_key for requests. If non-numeric value (like 'x') is  specified
              then a value will be prompted for.

   Debugging flags
       -h, --help      show the usage message

       -d     raise the IB debugging level.  May be used several times (-ddd or -d -d -d).

       -e     show send and receive errors (timeouts and others)

       -K, --show_keys
              show security keys (mkey, smkey, etc.) associated with the request.

       -v, --verbose
              increase  the application verbosity level.  May be used several times (-vv or -v -v
              -v)

       -V, --version     show the version info.
