Subject: [PATCH 0/1] ixgbe: Correct BASE-BX10 compliance code
The current code in ixgbe_82599 checks the SFP Ethernet compliance code
against IXGBE_SFF_BASEBX10_CAPABLE to determine if an SFP module supports
1GB BASE-BX. According to SFF-8472 (section 5.4 Transceiver Compliance
Codes), the BASE-BX10 bit is defined as bit 6, which corresponds to a
value of 0x40 (binary 01000000).
However, the current value of IXGBE_SFF_BASEBX10_CAPABLE is 0x64 (binary
01100100), which incorrectly sets bits for 1000BASE-CX (bit 2) and
100BASE-FX (bit 5) in addition to BASE-BX10 (bit 6). This mix-up causes
the driver to incorrectly configure for BASE-BX when encountering
1000BASE-CX modules. Although 100BASE-FX does not pass the nominal
signaling rate check, this error could lead to future bugs if other
codes start to depend on the incorrect value of
IXGBE_SFF_BASEBX10_CAPABLE.
This patch corrects the value of IXGBE_SFF_BASEBX10_CAPABLE to 0x40.
