commit 1c6690a9b5eaedb4f8fd5bea3fda70bb5455b21a Author: Kevin Bowling <[email protected]> AuthorDate: 2026-08-10 15:09:56 +0000 Commit: Kevin Bowling <[email protected]> CommitDate: 2026-08-24 09:12:22 +0000 ixgbe: Compare flow control against requested mode The flow-control sysctl represents the configured policy, while current_mode is the mode negotiated with the link partner. Comparing a new request with current_mode can needlessly reprogram an unchanged policy or skip a requested policy change that happens to match the current negotiation result. Compare with requested_mode before deciding that no update is needed.
