Can you file a bug directly through your factory rep? I think this is beyond
what we're going to answer via email.

Subject: [E1000-devel] ixgbe for 10 GbE SFP+ without CS4227 phy
Can the ixgbe driver be used without a CS4227 PHY between the NIC (X552 in this
case) and the SFP+? Do you have to configure anything (driver settings, EEPROM
firmware) to support that?
I do see a CS4227 error message from the driver, but it's not clear if that is
fatal:
Jun 17 21:36:26 localhost kernel: ixgbe 0000:04:00.0: eth10: CS4227 reset
failed: -18 Jun 17 21:36:26 localhost kernel: ixgbe 0000:04:00.0: registered
PHC device on eth10 Jun 17 21:36:26 localhost kernel: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP):
eth10: link is not ready Jun 17 21:36:26 localhost kernel: ixgbe 0000:04:00.0:
eth10: detected SFP+: 5
However, I am not seeing link (NO-CARRIER).
Here is 'ethtool -m', so it's talking to the SFP+ okay.
