Hello,

After upgrading from kernel 2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.x86_64 onto 2.6.32-131.0.15.el6.x86_64, the console and kernel fill up with following messages:

[bnx2x_extract_max_cfg:1079(eth11)]Illegal configuration detected for Max BW - using 100 instead
[bnx2x_extract_max_cfg:1079(eth10)]Illegal configuration detected for Max BW - using 100 instead
[bnx2x_extract_max_cfg:1079(eth9)]Illegal configuration detected for Max BW - using 100 instead
[bnx2x_extract_max_cfg:1079(eth12)]Illegal configuration detected for Max BW - using 100 instead

Today upgraded onto kernel 2.6.32-131.2.1.el6.x86_64, but to no avail.

RHEL6.1 installed on a HP-Blade bl460c-g6 with VirtualConnect, so the server has 8 virtual networking devices from which 2 are active. I've teamed all 8 devices into one bonding device.

network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-eth8
DEVICE="eth8"
BOOTPROTO="static"
NM_CONTROLLED="yes"
ONBOOT="yes"
SLAVE=yes
MASTER=bond0

These messages only show up for the 6 devices which are not active, and the servers network conenctivity seems to be ok. Should I change this setup, or use a special module parameter on loading bnx2x, or a regression bug maybe?

Cheers,
Andre
