Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64 Version: 2.6.26-5 Severity: normal Hi,
I tried upgrading my lenny box from 2.6.25 to 2.6.26 and it doesn't work really well, especially from the network pov. The box uses the r8169 module: 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02) When booting the 2.6.26, I have: [ 2.270265] r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.2LK-NAPI loaded [ 2.270387] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16 [ 2.270516] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:01:00.0 to 64 [ 2.270536] r8169 0000:01:00.0: unknown MAC (27a00000) [ 2.271261] eth0: RTL8169 at 0xffffc200004de000, 00:1c:c0:47:d9:f8, XID 24a00000 IRQ 1276 […] [ 17.253398] r8169: eth0: link up [ 18.543748] IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling driver [ 18.543748] sit0: Disabled Privacy Extensions [ 18.896123] ip_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team [ 27.491415] eth0: no IPv6 routers present [ 41.362012] NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out [ 41.362081] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 41.362130] WARNING: at net/sched/sch_generic.c:222 dev_watchdog+0xa6/0xfb() [ 41.362187] Modules linked in: iptable_filter ip_tables x_tables sit tunnel4 ipv6 smsc47m1 smsc47m192 hwmon_vid loop psmouse iTCO_wdt i2c_i801 i2c_core serio_raw rng_core pcspkr button usbhid hid ff_memless usblp snd_hda_intel intel_agp snd_pcm snd_timer snd soundcore snd_page_alloc evdev ext3 jbd mbcache dm_mirror dm_log dm_snapshot dm_mod raid1 md_mod sd_mod piix ide_pci_generic ide_core ata_piix ata_generic libata scsi_mod dock ehci_hcd uhci_hcd r8169 thermal processor fan thermal_sys [ 41.365702] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.26-1-amd64 #1 [ 41.365702] [ 41.365702] Call Trace: [ 41.365702] <IRQ> [<ffffffff80234878>] warn_on_slowpath+0x51/0x7a [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff803cbd6a>] dev_watchdog+0x0/0xfb [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff802352cd>] printk+0x4e/0x56 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8021256b>] read_tsc+0x9/0x20 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8023cda1>] lock_timer_base+0x26/0x4b [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8023cf30>] __mod_timer+0xbd/0xcc [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff802436c3>] queue_delayed_work_on+0xb8/0xc8 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff803cbd6a>] dev_watchdog+0x0/0xfb [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff803cbe10>] dev_watchdog+0xa6/0xfb [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff803cbd6a>] dev_watchdog+0x0/0xfb [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8023c861>] run_timer_softirq+0x16a/0x1e2 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8023922f>] __do_softirq+0x5c/0xd1 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8020d29c>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x28 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8020f37c>] do_softirq+0x3c/0x81 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8023918f>] irq_exit+0x3f/0x83 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8021a9eb>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x8c/0xa4 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff80212bbb>] mwait_idle+0x0/0x4d [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8020ccc2>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x72/0x80 [ 41.365702] <EOI> [<ffffffff8021a797>] lapic_next_event+0x0/0x13 [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff80212bfc>] mwait_idle+0x41/0x4d [ 41.365702] [<ffffffff8020ac79>] cpu_idle+0x89/0xb3 [ 41.365702] [ 41.365702] ---[ end trace 6058d4309049ae83 ]--- Then, during all the session, I get: [ 96.170038] NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out [ 96.985210] r8169: eth0: link up [ 126.813323] NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out [ 127.666630] r8169: eth0: link up and eth0 never transmit anything. Rebooting under 2.6.25 works fine. I'm using the latest 2.6.26 in Lenny (2.6.26-5). As it's a production server I can't easily test and do bisect test on this.
