Hm, I don't understand why ixgbe would support getting the address of the MII PHY in use, but not to fetch the IMM_BMSR "basic mode status register" from it. Is this supposed to happen? Have you tried discussing this with the upstream driver developers? _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
