  Since LSR interrupt is disabled by pmd drivers, link status in rte_eth_device is always down.
Bond slave_configure() enables LSR interrupt on devices to get notification if link status
changes. However, the LSC interrupt at device start time is still lost.

In this fix, call link_update to read link status from hardware
register at device start time.

If LSC interrupt is disabled by default, it will poll the link status during the initialization
or in dev_start, and then the link status should he correct. If I am not wrong.

Before enabling interrupt for LSC, the link status should be polled. So after the port
startup, the link status should be there.

Could you help to explain this code changes a bit more? Why we need it?

My answer to Helin¹s comments:

This patch is needed for bond slave devices or other devices, when LSC
interrupt is enabled.
 1. slave_configure()  -> slave_eth_dev->Š.lsc = 1

 2. rte_eth_link_get() reads dev_link from eth_dev, when lsc interrupt is
enabled. However, the dev_link on eth_dev has not be initialized and
showed link down state. This patch initializes the device¹s dev_link at
rte_eth_dev_start time.

Please let me know if you have further questions/comments.

Thanks,
Jia

So the link update is for bond only? But your code changes is in rte_ethdev, it will
be used for all PMDs. For hardware NIC (e.g. 82599), this link update is not needed
at all. It just need to wait the link status change event. So can those code changes
be put in librte_pmd_bond, but not in librte_ether?

Helin,

Thanks for comment. Any device that enabled LSC needs this fix, otherwise
they all need to call link_update separately. We cannot assume that only
Bond enables LSC interrupt.

The fix will not be used for all PMDs, as it explicitly checks if
(dev->data->dev_conf.intr_conf.lsc != 0). Therefore, for hardware NIC
(e.g. 82599) that disabled lsc by default, the link_update callback will
not be executed. Please let me know if you have other concerns.

Thanks,
Jia

I understood. I mean if (lsc == 1), for 82599, it can report lsc event correctly after startup.
But if a manually link update is executed, no link change can be found when a lsc
event is received in application.
Your fix is to solve the problem in bond only, am I correct? My comment is that can we
avoid doing that for 82599, Fortville, etc? As some of DPDK customers may not want it if
lsc is enabled.
