简介
mlxlink工具用于检查和调试连接状态及相关问题。该工具可以用于不同的链路和电缆（包括被动、电动、收发器和背板）。
属于mft工具套件的一个工具，固件工具 Firmware Tools (MFT):https://blog.csdn.net/bandaoyu/article/details/142427579
警告
为了确保mlxlink正常工作，请确保将固件版本更新到最新版本。
mlxlink是为具备适当技术背景的高级用户设计的。
请不要使用mlxlink通过（“--port_state dn”）标志来禁用主机与无管理交换机之间的端口连接。
mlxlink的错误、警告和说明将打印在标准错误控制台上。
为新设备（NVIDIA ConnectX-6及以上，NVIDIA Quantum交换机及以上）设置速率（50GbE、100GbE和200GbE），需要指定通道数量：mlxlink -d <dev> --speeds [50G_2X | 50G_1X | 100G_2X | 100G_4X | 200G_4X ]。

Margin Scan Tool
The margin scan tool is used for scanning PCIe or Network ports [EDR\25G or HDR\PAM4 speeds].
Warning
If the margin scan fails with this message (Eye scan not completed), perform a reboot and run the scan again.
To enable the margin scan with measure time 10 seconds:
mlxlink –d <device> --port_type PCIE –margin –measure_time 10
To enable the margin scan for Multi-host or Socket Direct systems through:
-
depth, pcie_index and node:
Mlxlink –d <device> --port_type PCIE –depth0–pcie_index1–node0–margin –measure_time30 -
The local port (it can be shown by the –show_links command):
Mlxlink –d <device> --port_type PCIE –port1–margin –measure_time10
RX Error Injection
Allows modifying the Eye Center capability by changing the mixer_offset0 (fine change) and mixer_offset1 (coarse change) flags for 28nm products to produce RX errors.
Flags Usage
-
To change the values of mixers:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt4117_pciconf0 --rx_error_injection --mixer_offset00x200--mixer_offset10x305Warning
Modifying mixer_offset0 and mixer_offset1 flags can change the Eye Center and might cause link degradation.
-
To query the mixers values:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt4117_pciconf0 --rx_erro r_injection --show_mixers_offset
Module PRBS Test Mode
The module PRBS test mode can be performed by using the new flags under the --cable command.
Note
-
This feature supports Active/Optical CMIS modules only
-
Either the media or host side can run with PRBS mode
-
To enable the PRBS test mode, the module should be plugged in and active
Enabling\Disabling The Module PRBS Test Mode
To enable the module PRBS test mode, the side of the module should be selected using --prbs_select flag after providing the --cable flag, it can be either the HOST or the MEDIA side, then the --prbs_mode <EN\DS> can be used to enable or disable the PRBS test mode process.
E.g: the following command will enable the PRBS test mode on the HOST side of the module:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt53104_pciconf0 --port 3 --cable --prbs_select HOST --prbs_mode EN
The command above will put the HOST side of the module in PRBS test mode with default Checker and Generator parameters.
The Checker and Generator parameters can be overridden while enabling the PRBS test mode according to their related flags in the help menu:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt53104_pciconf0 --port 3 --cable --prbs_select HOST --prbs_mode EN --checker_pattern PRBS13 --invert_checker --generator_pattern PRBS31 --swap_generator --lane_rate HDR
To disable the PRBS test mode, the following command can be executed:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt53104_pciconf0 --port 3 --cable --prbs_select HOST --prbs_mode DS
PRBS Diagnostic Counters Information
After performing the PRBS test mode, the module counters can be quired by using the following command:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt53104_pciconf0 --port 3 --cable --prbs_select HOST --show_diagnostic_info
The module PRBS test mode counters can be cleared by using the following command, which will clear the diagnostic counters on the HOST side only:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt53104_pciconf0 --port 3 --cable --prbs_select HOST --clear_diagnostic_info
Module Control Parameters
Some of the module parameters can be controlled by mlxlink after providing the --control_paramenter flag, which can be executed under --cable flag.
The possible parameters can be controlled as follows:
-
Reading and configuring Tx Equalization
-
Reading and configuring Rx Emphasis (PreCursor & PostCursor)
-
Reading and configuring Rx Amplitude
Note
-
To apply the changes, the link should be disabled first
-
After configuring a new parameter, the link should be raised again to allow the firmware to load the new configuration
-
Cable control parameters are valid for active\optical modules only
Query, Configure The Module Control Parameters
To query the currently configured module control parameters, the --control_parameters flag can be used under --cable flag as follows:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt53104_pciconf0 --cable --control_parameters ... Module Control Parameters ------------------------- TX Equalization : 1dB RX Emphasis (pre) : 2.5dB RX Post Emphasis : No Equalization RX Amplitude : 600-1200 mV (P-P)
To configure the module control parameters, the following command can be executed:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt53104_pciconf0 --cable --control_parameters --tx_equalization 2 --rx_amplitude 1
Tool Usage with NIC vs. Switch (-p Flag)
When using mlxlink tool with NIC, notice that the "label_port" flag -p should not be used. To address different ports please use different mst devices.
For example:
To address port 1 in ConnectX-4 use:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt4115_pciconf0
To address port 2 use:
mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt4115_pciconf0.1
Warning
-
Any mlxlink command for switch should include the "-p" flag to address the specific port in the switch.
-
When working with the NIC, if an MTUSB is used for communication with the NVIDIA NIC, to address port 2, use mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt4115_pciconf0 --gvmi_address<0xAddress>.
Tool Usage on NVIDIA Quantum HDR Switch Systems with Split Ports
Using mlxlink on NVIDIA Quantum HDR based switch systems split ports if the split port number is not provided by the ibdiagnet tool:
mlxlink -d lid-<LID> -p <formula>
Formula:
In case of 2X port:
-
1- port_num = round_down[(Iblinkinfo_port_num + 1)*0.5]
-
2- if (Iblinkinfo_port_num + 1) modulo 2 =1 then append ‘/2’ to port_num
In case of 4X port, use only item #1 above
Example:
43 23[ ] ==( 2X 53.125 Gbps Active/ LinkUp)==> mlxlink -d lid-43 -p 12 43 24[ ] ==( 2X 53.125 Gbps Active/ LinkUp)==> mlxlink -d lid-43 -p 12/2
Tool Usage on NVIDIA Quantum-2 NDR Switch Systems
In NVIDIA Quantum-2 NDR switch generation there are 32-OSFP cages (8x), where each one holds 2 (4x) ports instead of 1, and each port can be accessed by providing the cage number and the port in the cage “Cage/Port”.
mlxlink -d <mst deivce> -p <Cage>/<Port>
If the split profile is ready, then we can access the split ports by providing the number of split to the port flag, e.g.:
-
To access the main port of 15/2
mlxlink -d <mst deivce> -p15/2 -
To access the split port of 15/2
mlxlink -d <mst deivce> -p15/2/2
PCIe
Link Speed and Width
For PCIe link speed and width use the following flag: --port_type PCIE
PCIe Operational (Enabled) Info ------------------------------- Depth, pcie index, node : [Depth, pcie index, node] Link Speed Active (Enabled) : [Freq – Gen] Link Width Active (Enabled) : [Width]
PCIe Switch
For NVIDIA ConnectX-5 and newer devices, the PCIe interface can be configured for PCIe switch. When the PCIe switch is enabled, the Depth, pcie_index and node parameters are needed to specify the PCIe port where the requested information (such as counters or eye info) is gathered from.
| Parameters | Description |
| Depth | This defines the number of layers from the Root Complex to the specific port.
|
| Pcie_index | This defines the root complex ID or host index.
|
| Node | This defines the specific pcie port.
Note: For NVIDIA BlueField/BlueField-2 SmartNIC mode, the PCIe link information can only be gathered from the external host. The PCIe interface status cannot be retrieved from the Arm side. When retrieving the PCIe link information from the external host, there is no need to specify the depth, pcie_index and node. |
Example: NVIDIA BlueField JBoF Mode
# mlxlink -d /dev/mst/mt41682_pciconf0 --port_type pcie --depth 3 --pcie_index 0 --node 4 -c PCIe Operational (Enabled) Info ------------------------------- Depth, pcie index, node : 3, 0, 4 Link Speed Active (Enabled) : 8G-Gen 3 (16G-Gen 4) Link Width Active (Enabled) : 2X (2X) Management PCIe Timers Counters Info ------------------------------------ dl down : 0 Management PCIe Performance Counters Info ----------------------------------------- RX Errors : 0 TX Errors : 0 CRC Error dllp : 0 CRC Error tlp : 0

-
TX errors: indicate number of transitions to recovery due to EIEOS and TS errors.
-
CRC Error dllp: indicate CRC error in Data Link Layer Packets
-
