With the release 2.6.33 the kernel can't bring up my ethernet.
I have found the commit which broke it:

commit ac1aa47b131416a6ff37eb1005a0a1d2541aad6c
Author: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>

    PCI: determine CLS more intelligently
    
    Till now, CLS has been determined either by arch code or as
    L1_CACHE_BYTES.  Only x86 and ia64 set CLS explicitly and x86 doesn't
    always get it right.  On most configurations, the chance is that
    firmware configures the correct value during boot.
    
    This patch makes pci_init() determine CLS by looking at what firmware
    has configured.  It scans all devices and if all non-zero values
    agree, the value is used.  If none is configured or there is a
    disagreement, pci_dfl_cache_line_size is used.  arch can set the dfl
    value (via PCI_CACHE_LINE_BYTES or pci_dfl_cache_line_size) or
    override the actual one.
    
    ia64, x86 and sparc64 updated to set the default cls instead of the
    actual one.                                                                                                                                                                               
                                                                                                                                                                                              
    While at it, declare pci_cache_line_size and pci_dfl_cache_line_size                                                                                                                      
    in pci.h and drop private declarations from arch code.

Thanks for doing the bisection - it really helps.

Guys, this is a 2.6.32 -> 2.6.33 regression.

Comment 2 Francois Romieu 2010-03-18 22:57:55 UTC
Matteo, does it get fixed by (post-2.6.33) commit 76b1a87b217927f905f4b01c586452b2a1d33913 ?

If it does not, please send a lspci -vv with and without the culprit as
well as a working dmesg.

Ok, I'll make MWI non-mandatory.

Can you send an hexadecimal dump of the config space of the 8169 when it
previously failed ?

I'd like to check that it failed because of a bad cache line setting.
