FYI(For Your Information) This is Naoto MATSUMOTO, Senior Researcher, SAKURA Internet. We tried ethtool 3.5 on 40GbE NIC(Mellanox), it's result here. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- # ./ethtool --version ethtool version 3.5 # ./ethtool eth1 Settings for eth1: Supported ports: [ TP ] Supported link modes: 10000baseT/Full Supported pause frame use: No Supports auto-negotiation: No Advertised link modes: 10000baseT/Full Advertised pause frame use: No Advertised auto-negotiation: No Speed: 40000Mb/s Duplex: Full Port: Twisted Pair PHYAD: 0 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: off MDI-X: Unknown Supports Wake-on: d Wake-on: d Current message level: 0x00000014 (20) link ifdown Link detected: yes Our 40GbE NIC Firmware/Dirver status are here. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Mellanox ConnectX HCA Ethernet driver v1.5.8.3 (June 2012) Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT27500 Family [ConnectX-3] Firmware Version: 2.10.800 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- And We were testing 10GbE(Intel) NIC and your 40GbE NIC in our lab using ethtool with added some debug code. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- # ./ethtool-p eth5 (10GbE NIC by Intel) Settings for eth5: Supported ports: [ FIBRE ] Supported link modes: 10000baseT/Full mask == 5120 <--- ep->support number # ./ethtool-p eth1 (40GbE NIC by Mellanox) Settings for eth1: Supported ports: [ TP ] Supported link modes: 10000baseT/Full mask == 4224 <--- ep->support number ----------------------------------------------------------------------- It's firmware problem I thinks.
