Mellanox ConnectX-2 Ethernet adapter stops working

Hi all,

Seem to have an issue with my Sophos XG home firewall thats become worse following the latest update (SFOS 18.5.2 MR-2-Build380)

Its running on a HP SFF desktop PC with 6GB ram, and a 4th gen i7.

Using the standard Intel onboard NIC for my WAN interface (connecting with PPPoE) and a dual port Mellanox ConnectX-2 10 Gb adapter as the local interface (used for VLANs)

I've noticed that the local interface seems to stop working randomly out of the blue, rebooting the machine entirely resolves it (no unplugging or plugging SFPs/Fibre helps)

I've noticed around the time that I last had this problem, the following was logged:

Jan 1 01:02:28 (none) user.err kernel: [ 8.087233] ip_local_port_range: prefer different parity for start/end values.

Any idea what could be causing this? Happy to get more logs as needed
