knet_manager: do not try to set state for non-existing links#478
Conversation
Since OF-DPA brings all links up at boot, there is a chance that the is a link state change before we received the port table and created the ports. If this happens, then we get a change modification for speed/link, but there is no link to modify. This is harmless since we will set the link to down once we do create the port interface, but triggers a warning from knet on startup: kernel: linux-bcm-knet (1197): Warning: unknown network interface: 'port1' kernel: linux-bcm-knet (1197): Warning: unknown network interface: 'port2' ... kernel: linux-bcm-knet (1197): Warning: unknown network interface: 'port54' So check if the link is created before trying to update its state. Fixes: 40f68c8 ("add knet manager for using knet based interfaces") Signed-off-by: Jonas Gorski <jonas.gorski@bisdn.de>
