Public bug reported: [Impact] After hot-plug the Ethernet cable, the status of Ethernet is always down.
[Fix] Because ASPM is enabled on RTL8106E, the link change interrupt can't be fired immediately. Need to wait a long time to get the link change interrupt. Introduce a polling method to watch the link status and disable the link change interrupt for RTL8106E. Due to schedule, SRU this patch first and will upstream later. [Test] Verified on machines with Realtek Ethernet device, the Ethernet works well after hotplug 30 times. [Regression Potential] High, may have some cases missed in link change polling method and will fix them in the future. ** Affects: hwe-next Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Assignee: koba (kobako) Status: In Progress ** Tags: oem-priority originate-from-1921898 somerville ** Also affects: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu Focal) Assignee: (unassigned) => koba (kobako) ** Changed in: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu Focal) Status: New => In Progress ** Tags added: oem-priority originate-from-1921898 somerville -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1930645 Title: Fix Ethernet not working by hotplug - RTL8106E Status in HWE Next: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux-oem-5.10 package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux source package in Focal: New Status in linux-oem-5.10 source package in Focal: In Progress Bug description: [Impact] After hot-plug the Ethernet cable, the status of Ethernet is always down.
