`GPORT`

Get a GPORT id

GPORT

Turn a port description into the numeric GPORT ID used by the SDK, and print it. This is handy for decoding GPORT values in logs. The only argument is Port=<spec>, where <spec> is a port name, a port number, or one of the <type>(<args>) forms listed in the built-in help, such as modport(0,1) or trunk(3). The shell prints `` gport is = <gport>(<type>)``, or `` Unable to Parse GPORT !!!`` if the description is invalid. Without an argument it prints the usage.

The built-in help also lists localcpu, but the shell does not accept it: gport port=localcpu is rejected with Invalid port "localcpu", as the second example shows. Use the port name cpu0 instead.

Read-only.

Hardware-validated — GPORT of module 0, port 1

drivshell> gport port=modport(0,1)
 gport is = 0x8000001(modport)

Hardware-validated — GPORT of the local CPU port

drivshell> gport port=localcpu
Invalid port "localcpu"
Examples: fe0 ge1 3 cpu0 any
GPORT: Error: Unknown option: port=localcpu
 Unable to Parse GPORT !!!

Failed to execute the diagnostic command. Error: Operation failed.

Hardware-validated — GPORT of the CPU port, by name

drivshell> gport port=cpu0
 gport is = 0x0
