From b8a2ca19bc1479745952967ec998fd92de92ec85 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Emil Tantilov Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2014 05:52:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ixgbevf: introduce delay for checking VFLINKS on 82599 VFLINKS.LINKUP bit tends to flap when a DA or SFP+ cable is disconnected. It can take up to 500 usecs for the LINKUP bit to be correct. This patch resolves the issue by introducing a delay for 82599 VFs of at least 500 usecs to make sure the VFLINKS value is correct.
