From 9f0a433ce69d63ae2c45ef801b9b1d8967165350 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jacob Keller Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2013 05:09:19 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: show <2% for encoding loss on PCIe Gen3 This patch updates the ixgbe_check_minimum_link function to correctly show that there is some minor loss of encoding, even though we don't calculate it in the max GT/s equation. It is small enough to not bother, but is better to report it than not.
