  Setting exact link speed makes sense if auto-negotiation is
disabled. Fixed flag is required to disable auto-negotiation.

Hi Andrew,

Fixed link speed is not supported by all PMDs and this change is breaking them
to set the speed in testpmd.

As long as device speed set correct, I believe the command doesn't really care
about if link mode is auto-negotiation or not.

I am for reverting this commit, is there any objection to revert it?

Not all. sfc definitely supports it.
It looks like bnxt, e1000, igb support it as well.

Sometimes it is really important to disable auto-negotiation.

May be I misunderstood the purpose of the command.
Typically if someone wants to set link speed, it is assumed that
auto-negotiation should be disabled since user specifies what he really 
wants.
Of course, it is still valid request to keep auto-negotiation enabled, but
limit set of advertised speeds (may be keep only one).

So, I'm not happy to revert it completely. There is an option to revert 
to old
behaviour and add optional argument to disable auto-negotiation, but I
can't say that I like it, since it would make sense if the command 
allows more
than one speed to be advertised (to be auto-negotiated). If it is only 
one speed,
the default should be autoneg disabled.

Anyway documentation of the command should be improved.

Andrew.

The ones we know for now as not supported are ixgbe and i40e.

If this is the case, we should cover this option in testpmd, but perhaps as an
extension to current command, like new parameter?

I think the purpose of the command is not clear, and what you said makes sense,
only it is breaking the some PMDs is problem I think.

Indeed I was suggesting same thing above, I didn't get the problem with this
approach, if the 'fixed' arg added it will work as you suggested, single fixed
speed value.
