we're experiencing the same issue with 4.19 and I'd like to hotfix
it now before the issue is fixed in the kernel.. however I don't see
the flags in ethtool (even with latest 4.19 version..)

I'm using following cards:

d8:00.0 Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT27710 Family [ConnectX-4 Lx]

Am i doing something wrong, or is this different issue?

thanks a lot in advance

BR
