Hi Vasant,

Thank you for your reminder. I have a question for your opinion:
Finally, there is a branch used by mowgli in ibm-op-release/op-build: release-mowgli,
Maybe I can refer to the previous approach https://github.com/ibm-op-release/op-build/blob/release-mowgli/openpower/configs/mihawk_defconfig#L3 ,
build a dedicated mowgli-patches, and add the modification of phb4_get_max_link_speed(), set max_link_speed to GEN3.
What do you think?



Hi Frederic,

Thanks for your advice,
I tried to make some modifications (attached files) and verified through EEH, the max-link-speed of this modification will not be lost,
Do you have any suggestions for this modification?

But as you mentioned, there is an easier way to achieve this.
I would like to ask how to set/add this property (ibm, max-link-speed) for PHB 0?

If there is any problem, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you very much.

Best regards,
Lulu Su

Lulu,

Can you guys fix this issue?
