There are some physical link settings can be queried from Ethernet devices: link status, link speed, speed capabilities, duplex mode, etc. These setting do not make a lot of sense for representors due to missing physical link. The new kernel drivers dropped query for link settings for representors causing the ioctl call to fail. This patch adds some kind of emulation of link settings to PMD - representors inherit the link parameters from the master device. The actual link status (up/down) is retrieved from the representor device. Signed-off-by: Viacheslav Ovsiienko <viacheslavo@mellanox.com> Acked-by: Shahaf Shuler <shahafs@mellanox.com>
