That's not good, "eth%d"? Just a reminder that ixgbevf 2.8.7 is not the driver version that's in the kernel tree, so it's easy to spend time on mainline issue that have been fixed in the out-of-tree versions, or vice versa. Per Don, the latest ixgbevf driver is here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/ixgbevf%20stable/ Bjorn -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
