Subject: [net-2.6 PATCH 1/2] ixgbe: Fix - Do not allow Rx FC on 82598 at 1G due to errata
Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2010 06:13:49 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100211141319.25672.3041.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

From: Don Skidmore <donald.c.skidmore@intel.com>

The 82598 has an erratum that receipt of pause frames at 1G
could lead to a Tx Hang.  To avoid this this patch disables
Rx FC while at 1G speed for all 82598 parts.
