Hello guys,

We are having constant network issues in production in that the link goes
down, waits *exactly* 7-8 seconds, and goes up again.
This can happen zero to a few times a day on all our servers; they are not
in the same location and are connected to different network devices.

Each server runs as a KVM virtual machine with 60 CPUs (Pinning) and 224Gi
(Huge pages) - overall performance is excellent.
The NIC is PCI passed through to the KVM machine AS IS.
OS Rocky Linux 8.5, kernel 4.18.0-348.23.1.el8_5.x86_64 with Intel ice
1.9.11 built and installed using rpm.
We have a traffic generator between two servers (our app: client+server)
that is reaching 94Gb and can replicate this issue.

The dmesg once the issue occur:
Nov 28 16:01:27 SERVER kernel: ice 0000:00:06.0 eth0: NIC Link is Down
Nov 28 16:01:35 SERVER kernel: ice 0000:00:06.0 eth0: NIC Link is up 100
Gbps Full Duplex, Requested FEC: RS-FEC, Negotiated FEC: RS-FEC, Autoneg
Advertised: Off, Autoneg Negotiated: False, Flow Control: None


Thanks,
Assaf
