Description of problem:

The 10G NIC chipset is Boardcom 57710

Rhel 5.2 include the bnx2x module as the chipset 57710 driver module

It works well on the kernel 2.6.18-92-el5,the two netwrok ports works at the 
speed 10G 
bits/s, the data stream transmission is normally.

but when the kernel is 2.6.18-92-el5xen (OS run on XEN mode ),the 10G network 
ports link status is always keep the state of "no-linked"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

OS Rhel5.2 64bits 

kernel  2.6.18-92.el5Xen

bnx2x ver :1.40.22

CPU : Intel Xeon 5405
 
chipset:  Intel 5000P

NIC Chipset : Boardcom 57710(on board) 

How reproducible:

Are you sure netpbm is a correct component to file this bug against? It looks more like a kernel/userspace problem to me.

Comment 2 huaweisns 2008-08-04 03:51:36 UTC
OK ,add this problem  to  kernel bug is more appropriate,thank you

Comment 3 Andy Gospodarek 2008-11-10 21:58:16 UTC
This was a kernel bug, but should be fixed with the latest 5.3 kernel.  Closing out.
