As you know, link speed is a qualification of two devices speed capability. Both speed and width parameters get negotiated by two devices during TS1 and TS2 ordered set exchange. You need to see what your link partner can support in available function() vs. what this device can do in bandwidth() function. -- Sinan Kaya Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies, Inc. as an affiliate of Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
