VF learns of the current link state via its bulletin board, which might reflect either the physical link state or some user-configured logical state. Whenever the physical link changes or whnever such a configuration is explicitly made by user the PF driver would update the bulletin that the VF reads. But if neither has happened - i.e., PF still hasn't got a physical link up and no additional configuration was done the VF wouldn't have a valid link information available. Simply reflect the physical link state whenever the VF is initialized. The user could then affect it however he wants. Signed-off-by: Yuval Mintz <Yuval.Mintz@cavium.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
