Description Wolfgang Rosenauer 2014-04-06 13:12:45 UTC
This bug was initially reported at
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=864375
but it was suggested to report it here after it was possible to point to the main cause.

I've got an Intel DH87RL board with BIOS revision 0324 and builtin Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection I217-V (rev 04) running with e1000e driver.

As long as WoL is turned on in the bios I cannot shutdown the system from software (hw turnoff works though). shutdown -P now turns the system off for one or two seconds but afterwards it's booting up again.

This happens for me with kernel 3.11.10 and also 3.14.
Only turning off WoL in the bios can workaround the issue (obviously letting me without that feature).
