[dpdk-users] [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 00/29] ixgbe/base: update base driver

[Klaus Degner]

Hi Beilei,

I have an Supermicro Xeon-D system ( 5018D-FN8T ) with 2x 10G Intel X552
SFP+ connectors and compatible SFP+ DAC cables.
The link status is always down and I cannot bring it up. I have tried
the latest stable release and the current master.
I have also used your latest update base driver patch from below, but
also without success.

Checking link statuses...
Port 0 Link Down
Port 1 Link Down
Done

It works fine with other chipsets like 82599.

Should this work with your patchset or is the SFP+ mode still in
development ?
Is there any way how we can help and speed up the development ?

Thanks and best regards,
Klaus
