Hello, Some of the FCoE capable adapters e.g. BCM57810 network interfaces has DCBX/LLDP client on-chip, and kernel documentation recommends to keep software based DCBX/LLDP clients (e.g. lldpad) disabled. https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/scsi/bnx2fc.txt It was found that, if lldpad is disabled while using above interfaces, then fcoemon shows following errors every 10 seconds: fcoemon: error 111 Connection refused fcoemon: Failed to connect to lldpad Below patch checks each interface configuration in /etc/fcoe/cfg-ethX file to verify if there is at least 1 interface with DCB_REQUIRED flag set to yes and will try to initialize dcbd only if there is at least 1 interface with DCB_REQUIRED="yes", else fcoemon will not try to initialize dcbd or connect to lldpad, thus eliminating above errors: Signed-off-by: Milan P.
