Description
Add xcvrd/sff_mgr support for enabling high power class if module's power class is greater or equal to 5 (Refer to SFF-8636 spec 6.2.6 Control Functions (Page 00h, Bytes 86-99) for byte 93 definition)
Change
enable_sff_mgr
flag toenable_sff_mgr_controlled_tx
, so that sff_mgr will always get spawned by default, and all platforms/vendors by default can get the benefit of high power class enabling/etc. Only sff_mgr's controlling on module Tx is platform based (enable_sff_mgr_controlled_tx
)Motivation and Context
Without enabling high power class for those modules, the module won't operate properly with power output and link won't come up.
How Has This Been Tested?
Verified the module operate with proper power output.
