From 9671a42e4508db8a0196110b098fd8550304ab14 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russell King Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2014 00:22:39 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net: fec: fix ethtool set_pauseparam duplex bug Setting the pause parameters causes a running network interface to be restarted. However, the restart forces the FEC into half-duplex mode, whether or not the remote end is in half-duplex mode. Misconfigured duplex mode is a known source of problems on a link. Fix this by always preserving the duplex mode on configuration changes. Acked-by: Fugang Duan Signed-off-by: Russell King Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-format-patch failed
