Hi,

I have seen this issue happen on older kernels like 2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64
while it works with no issues on a recent kernel like 3.10.x.

Further, I found this issue was happening due to
/sys/bus/pci/devices/<virtio_nic_dev>/msi_irqs dir not being enumerated in
older kernels resulting in
hw->use_msix=0. This causes VIRTIO_PCI_CONFIG() offset to change and hence
the Link status issue shows up.

Setting hw->use_msix=1 helped me get past this issue on
2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64

Thanks,
Vijay
