Hi,
The 'speed_capa' will be reported in rte_eth_dev_info_get API. How
should users use the field?
1) The driver reports only the capabilities supported by the NIC, and
users only obtain the capabilities.
Maybe, there is a case that a rate bit in 'speed_capa' is not supported
by the current transmission medium,
such as, copper cable optical modules and optical interface modules.
2) The field is used only to inform users of the speed_capa supported by
the current transmission medium.
And users set the fixed speed or auto-negotiation by using 'link_speeds'
according to the field.
According to the existing implementations of all drivers, it seems that
both of the above behaviors exist.
How should we report and use it?
Thanks
