From a626e8478b18de4fdee0e6d13975cea2b23efea5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Don Skidmore Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2010 04:13:49 +0000 Subject: ixgbe: Fix - Do not allow Rx FC on 82598 at 1G due to errata 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. Signed-off-by: Don Skidmore Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher Signed-off-by: David S.
