For Linux at least, the standard driver includes a load-time option to

to your module config and it works just fine.


For anyone who may be going down this road, if you have a two-port Intel NIC, I discovered you have to pass "allow_unsupported_sfp=1,1" or it will
only apply to the first port. Hope that helps someone.
Also it wont work with X710, you need to do NVRAM hack for it, SFP are checked in firmware.
