From ad1d9ef3f736485ba0f49325fa4c73cd1d963853 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yaniv Rosner Date: Wed, 1 Jan 2014 11:06:44 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] bnx2x: Fix incorrect link-up report Fix a problem where link is reported to be up when SFP+ module is plugged in without cable. This occurs with specific module types which may generate temporary TX_FAULT indication. Solution is to avoid changing any link parameters when checking TX_FAULT indication while physical link is down. Signed-off-by: Yaniv Rosner Signed-off-by: Ariel Elior Signed-off-by: David S.
