Bug#748609: linux-image-3.14-0.bpo.1-amd64: Hyper-V netvsc no networking
Package: src:linux
Version: 3.14.4-1~bpo70+1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
Dear Maintainers,
I've kept running some systems on wheezy as guests on Windows Server 2008 R2
Hyper-V hosts (german if it matters) to check out upstream changes and see
if regressions are happening.
I've been running both base 3.2 and the previous 3.13 backport kernel for
wheezy without issues. However booting into this next (as of writing current) version
makes the wheezy guest boot with error messages and the guest ends up without paravirtualized
network interfaces. The other paravirtualized drivers like storage or graphics seem to be OK.
Here is the messages that I was able to catch during boot phase:
[ <timestamp> ] tsc: Fast TSC calibration failed
[ <timestamp> ] hv_netvsc vmbus_0_9 (unregistered net_device):
Unable to complete receive buffer initialization with NetVsp - status 2
[ <timestamp> ] hv_netvsc vmbus_0_9 (unregistered net_device): unable to connect to NetVSP - -22)
[ <timestamp> ] hv_netvsc vmbus_0_9 (unregistered net_device): unable to add netwvsc device (red -22)
[ <timestamp> ] hv_vmbus: probe failed for device vmbus_0_9 (-22)
I'm currently uncertain whether this is a regression in upstream with host systems
running this release of this Hypervisor. I could make a comparison on a 2012 R2 in the coming
days which is the latest version I have access to.
Should I notify upstream authors?
