Subject: [PATCH net 1/2] bnx2x: Fix intermittent long KR2 link up time
Date: Fri, 8 Mar 2013 01:27:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1362698854-6786-2-git-send-email-yanivr@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1362698854-6786-1-git-send-email-yanivr@broadcom.com>
When a KR2 device is connected to a KR link-partner, sometimes it requires
disabling KR2 for the link to come up. To get a KR2 link up later, in case no
base pages are seen, the KR2 is restored. The problem was that some link
partners cleared their advertised BP/NP after around two seconds, causing the
driver to disable/enable KR2 link all the time.
The fix was to wait at least 5 seconds before checking KR2 recovery.
