David,
The attached patch does two things. One it adds a bit more to the dmesg output
for the driver when the interface is brought up via ifconfig. You should seem
some messages about MSIXBM(x) in there. Also there is a workaround included to
bring the link up without need for the link status change interrupt, but it
will only work on initial driver load if the interface is already connected.
My main concern at this point is that the interrupts don't seem to be making it
from the adapter to the system. This could either be due to a misrouting or
dropping of the interrupt. If you could try the attached patch and let me know
how it works I would appreciate it. Basically the two things I would be
looking for would be the dmesg output after you configure the IP address of the
interface, and a dump of /proc/interrupts after trying to pass some traffic.
Thanks,
Alex
