PCIid 0x0436

PCIid 0x0436

[Gooch, Stephen]

Hello,

Cave Creek has PCI id of 0x0436 for port0 and 0x0438 for port1.  However only 0x0438 is listed in rte_pci_dev_ids.h.   Why is 0x0436 not listed?

Best Regards

Hi Stephen

It seems it hasn't been supported by standard Linux driver. We just follow it.
And what 0436 stands for? I am not quite sure about what it is.

Regards,
Helin

I've checked the Intel Communications Chipset 89xx Series (Cave Creek) datasheet [http://www.intel.ie/content/www/ie/en/intelligent-systems/crystal-forest-server/intel-communications-chipset-89xx-series-datasheet.html], and 0x0436 is indeed one of the possible PCI IDs used by that product. However, the datasheet explicitly says that it does not need to be handled by the NIC drivers - compared to say, 0x0438, which does. Table 3-5 in the datasheet indicates what PCI IDs correspond to what connection types. The previous table, Table 3-4, was more confusing and seemed to indicate that the PCI ID was based on the Port number, but Table 3-5 clarifies things.

Thanks for the answer off line.   0x0436 is the DID not handled by the OS network driver.   I incorrectly read the Cave Creek document.
