Error description

  • On an FCoE virtual fabric, LINK_DOWN and LINK_UP events may be
    dropped by the FCoE adapter driver.  The FCoE virtual link may
    in fact have recovered but the driver believes the link is
    still down.

Problem summary

  • On an FCoE virtual fabric, LINK_DOWN and LINK_UP events may be
    dropped by the FCoE adapter driver.  The FCoE virtual link may
    in fact have recovered but the driver believes the link is
    still down.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Process additional async event notifications from the adapter
    and map them to either LINK_UP or LINK_DOWN async status to
    the FCoE protocol driver.
