patch 'net/ixgbe: fix link status delay on FreeBSD' has been queued to stable release 21.11.9

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 12/02/24. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/67314fb203bae34cbfd018d0782845c618c39067

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/ixgbe: fix link status delay on FreeBSD

[ upstream commit f775386d92d68e534600fcff3fc4bcaa30d3e68c ]

Forcing wait true prevents checking link status without delay, because
the function will wait more than 10 seconds for link status to be true,
even if the API caller requested no waiting.

Fixes: 0012111a3d87 ("net/ixgbe: fix link status synchronization on BSD")
