Subject: Re: [PATCH] Carrier detect ok, don't turn off negotiation



Ok, I submit it  again.


In drivers/net/wan/hdlc_ppp.c, some noise on physical line can cause the carrier detect still ok, but the protocol will fail. So if carrier detect ok, don't turn off protocol negotiation

This patch is against the kernel version Linux 4.15-rc8
