Subject: Occasional link flap on Intel 82599 on boot in XAUI mode
Date: Fri, 25 Feb 2011 10:11:42 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201102251011.42400.bcook@breakingpoint.com> (raw)
We have a custom system with dual 82599's in XAUI mode. One has its pair of ports connected to a 10G switch, the other has its pair of ports connected to an FPGA.
Occasionally, on any of the interfaces, we will see the links flapping up and down when the system initially boots. This happens maybe one in 20 boots.

Feb 23 14:58:12 mfg kernel: [ 596.230039] ixgbe: eth1 NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX

Feb 23 14:58:16 mfg kernel: [ 600.228096] ixgbe: eth1 NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX
Feb 23 14:58:16 mfg kernel: [ 600.240135] ixgbe: eth1 NIC Link is Down
Feb 23 14:58:18 mfg kernel: [ 602.227047] ixgbe: eth1 NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX
Simply forcing a down/up on the interface seems to correct the problem:
ip link set eth1 down
ip link set eth1 up
Is anyone else using XAUI mode and has seen this? Here is the kernel information that we are using currently:
