This time, I tried "Intel(R) Gigabit ET Dual port server adapter" with igb driver. But this adapter also has problem reading some kind of NVM. I'm not sure the errors have any relation to previous X520 adapter errors.

Lastly, I tried "Intel Gigabit CT Desktop adapter" with e1000e driver. Surprisingly, the adapter and the driver works like a charm. Please give me some clue what is the difference between the CT adapter and the rest. > -----Original Message----- > From: mhban [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2013 4:09 PM > To: '[email protected]' > Cc: '[email protected]'; '[email protected]' > Subject: Intel 10GbE NIC eeprom read error > > Dear maintainer, > > Im developing device which is based on ARM processor and the processor > supports PCI Express root-port. > Im trying to install Intel X520-SR2 adapter on this device(Linux) but > there is problem when ixgbe driver probe device. > Here is brief system configuration. > > Processor : ARM SoC (Cortex-A15, ARMv7) > Adapter : Intel® ETHERNET SERVER ADAPTER X520-SR2 > (/w Intel DUAL RATE 1G/10G SFP+ SR : AFBR-703SDZ-IN2) > OS : Linux Kernel 3.9.0-rc4 > > I attached console log.
