From ab576389b733b458495529f81839f499b3fece78 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Duyck Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2009 06:35:23 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] igb: add code to retry a phy read in the event of failure on link check This patch adds a retry to phy reads in the event of failure. The original code broke out of the loop on failure and this is a mistake as we should be trying to do the read twice.
