3.2.3. Modifying HSSI PHY Transceiver PMA Settings

You can retrieve the current set of HSSI PHY transceiver analog PMA settings and modify individual settings per transceiver lane using the equalizer_tune sysfs file.

The following command dumps the current settings to stdout: 

$ cat /sys/class/fpga/intel-fpga-dev.<i>/intel-fpga-fme.<j>/intel-pac-hssi.<m>.auto/hssi_mgmt/\
equalizer_tune

See The equalizer_tune sysfs for details on the format of this sysfs file’s contents.

To modify an analog PMA setting for a transceiver lane, write a single field at a time to the equalizer_tune sysfs file. For example, to set the transmitter pre-emphasis second pre-tap magnitude to 4 for transceiver lane 2, write the following string value: 

"2:6=4"

Here is an example of doing this from a shell terminal window:

$ sudo sh -c "echo 2:6=4 > \
/sys/class/fpga/intel-fpga-dev.<i>/intel-fpga-fme.<j>/intel-pac-hssi.<m>.auto/hssi_mgmt/equalizer_tune"

Do this separately for each lane or PMA setting value you want to modify.
