I'm also a bit concerned about this for similar reasons to adrian@.
We need to distinguish between short link outages caused by (eg) a
switch admin reconfiguring the switch (which needs the lease to be
re-checked) and those caused by broken NICs which report link status
changes when they are touched. Maybe an alternative is to just ignore
link flaps when they occur within a few seconds of a script_go().
(And/or make the ignore timeout configurable).
Apart from fxp(4), does anyone know how many NICs are similarly
broken?
Does anyone know why this issue doesn't bite OpenBSD? Does it have
a work-around to avoid resetting the link, not report link status
changes or just no-one has noticed the issue?
BTW to jhb: Can you check your mailer's list configuration. You
appear to be adding <freebsd-current@freebsd.org> and leaving
<current@freebsd.org> in the Cc list.
