I'm hoping we can get ibstat.c to be the same in Windows and Linux and
constrain the changes to umad.cpp/libibumad. In Linux, the rate file
is not written when the link width is not valid but I've never seen
that happen. Does that occur in Windows or is this to handle it if it
were to occur ?

Anyhow, here's what I would propose:

1. Just add Gbps to Rate display (without the N/A for 0 case) in ibstat.c:

<change:>
printf("%sRate: %d\n", pre, port->rate);
<to>
printf("%sRate: %d Gbps\n", pre, port->rate);

2. changing umad.cpp as you originally proposed setting the port->rate
to 0 for unknown link widths (yes, I flip flopped on this after
looking at it again...)

Thanks.
