Bug#494360: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686: dl2k fails to work since 2.6.24-6
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
Version: 2.6.26-1
Severity: normal
I've got dl2k based nic please look at lspci output:
00:03.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc DL2000-based Gigabit Ethernet (rev 0c)
The first 2.6.24-1 linux kernel introduced the bug with this nic. After bringing
the interface up no packet gets into the wire without any error messages.
There are some difference in kernel initialization messages:
from 2.6.24-6 dmesg:
DL2000/TC902x-based linux driver v1.19 2007/08/12
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:03.0[A] -> GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
eth0: D-Link DGE-550T Gigabit Ethernet Adapter, 00:11:95:f4:b7:df, IRQ 16
tx_coalesce:^I16 packets
rx_coalesce:^I10 packets
rx_timeout: ^I128000 ns
from 2.6.26-1 dmesg:
[ 10.747031] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:03.0[A] -> GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 20
[ 10.747031] 0000:00:03.0: D-Link NIC
[ 10.791499] Ethernet device registered as: eth1
The 2.6.24-5 kernel fixed the problem with this log:
Add stable release 2.6.24.3:
- Fix dl2k constants
But since then in all 2.6.25 and 2.6.26 series of linux kernel the problem persist.
Thank you in advance,
Kulagin D.I.
