From b5902a4dfc709b62b704997ab64f31c9ef69a6db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Denis Du Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2018 17:26:06 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] netdev: carrier detect ok, don't turn off negotiation Sometimes when physical lines have a just good noise to make the protocol handshaking fail, but the carrier detect still good. Then after remove of the noise, nobody will trigger this protocol to be start again to cause the link to never come back. The fix is when the carrier is still on, not terminate the protocol handshaking.
