Unless the issue only manifests on the 82599 chipset, = I'd say we could try something a little different on a two fold approach: #1 re= word the advisory and #2 update the man page with a caveat section. #1 - Reword of the advisory (patch provided): Because the patch affects the entire ixgbe(4) driver, to be in conformance = with what the man page says, I'd suggest the advisory to read: No workaround is available, but systems that do not have Intel(R) 82598= EB series 10Gb Ethernet Controllers are not affected.=20 The man page for ixgbe states the following: DESCRIPTION=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20= =20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20= =20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20 The ixgbe driver provides support for PCI 10Gb Ethernet adapters based= on the Intel 82598EB Intel(R) Network Connections. The driver supports= =20=20=20=20=20 Jumbo Frames, MSIX, TSO, and RSS.=20 #2 - Caveat section (patch provided): Since this option is now the default on ixgbe we could add that in a caveat section of the man page for the driver (following examples of others such as ral(4). --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
