I have a card inter-82583v with 4 port, and do some storm-testing in bridge mode: br0 8000.080027f6c278 no eth6 eth7 eth8 eth9 After a while, i found that there're two port up/down continuous after a message:"NETDEV_WATCHDOG:....". please see the attatched file for detail. thanks.
I'm seeing a similar problem. We have a pair of very busy Squid servers (peak ~15000 TCP connections, ~100Mb/sec) using identical Asus server motherboards. The networking on one box intermittently fails - sometimes after a few hours sometimes after as much as 7 days. Here's the relevant info and an extract from syslog / dmesg # uname -r 2.6.31.12 # cat /sys/class/net/eth0/device/vendor 0x14e4 # cat /sys/class/net/eth0/device/device 0x1659 {{{ http://www.pcidatabase.com/vendor_details.php?id=767 0x1659 Chip Number: BCM5721 Chip Description: NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express }}} # ethtool -i eth0 driver: tg3 version: 3.99 firmware-version: 5721-v3.65 bus-info: 0000:03:00.0 #cat /var/log/syslog Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988504] ------------[ cut here ]------------ Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988511] WARNING: at net/sched/sch_generic.c:246 dev_watchdog+0x1be/0x1d0() Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988514] Hardware name: System Product Name Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988516] NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (tg3): transmit queue 0 timed out Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988518] Modules linked in: ip_gre e1000 via_rhine tg3 libphy r8169 pcnet32 e100 8139too mii w83627ehf vt8231 via686a hwm on_vid coretemp asus_atk0110 hwmon Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988533] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.31.12 #2 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988535] Call Trace: Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988540] [<c012864e>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x6e/0xb0 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988543] [<c034e4fe>] ? dev_watchdog+0x1be/0x1d0 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988546] [<c01286db>] ? warn_slowpath_fmt+0x2b/0x30 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988549] [<c034e4fe>] ? dev_watchdog+0x1be/0x1d0 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988553] [<c011f842>] ? __wake_up+0x42/0x60 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988557] [<c01376f2>] ? insert_work+0x42/0x50 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988560] [<c034e340>] ? dev_watchdog+0x0/0x1d0 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988564] [<c0131149>] ? run_timer_softirq+0xf9/0x1c0 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988567] [<c012d2c0>] ? __do_softirq+0x80/0x100 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988570] [<c012d36d>] ? do_softirq+0x2d/0x40 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988574] [<c0114d94>] ? smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x54/0x90 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988577] [<c0103676>] ? apic_timer_interrupt+0x2a/0x30 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988581] [<c03f00d8>] ? klist_add_before+0x18/0x50 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988585] [<c0109dc2>] ? mwait_idle+0x42/0x60 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988587] [<c0101d55>] ? cpu_idle+0x35/0x60 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988590] ---[ end trace 346a74434bf31555 ]--- Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988592] tg3: eth0: transmit timed out, resetting Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988596] tg3: DEBUG: MAC_TX_STATUS[0000000f] MAC_RX_STATUS[00000008] Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623449.988601] tg3: DEBUG: RDMAC_STATUS[00000000] WDMAC_STATUS[00000000] Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623450.089694] tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=1400 enable_bit=2 Apr 22 23:49:35 kernel: [623450.248154] tg3: eth0: Link is down.
Closing as obsolete, if this is still seen with modern kernels please re-open and update
(In reply to Alan from comment #2) > Closing as obsolete, if this is still seen with modern kernels please > re-open and update Please excuse me if I am incorrectly updating this bug report. The symptoms I am seeing are very similar to those shown in Comment 1, but for a via-rhine card and with a relatively new kernel. The problem happens after I try and make eth1 use the xen-pciback driver and then create a VM to make use of this NIC. (I have two servers connected via DRBD link, the VM runs just fine on my yet to be upgraded "squeeze" server). The firmware on the "wheezy" server has been upgraded to the latest version (Intel S3200SHV motherboard). # xm dmesg (XEN) Xen version 4.1.4 (Debian 4.1.4-3+deb7u1) (carnil@debian.org) (gcc version 4.7.2 (Debian 4.7.2-5) ) Sun May 5 14:44:49 UTC 2013 (XEN) Bootloader: GRUB 1.99-27+deb7u2 (XEN) Command line: placeholder dom0_mem=2G,max:2G dom0_max_vcpus=1 dom0_vcpus_pin pcie_aspm=off . . . # uname -r 3.2.0-4-amd64 # cat /sys/class/net/eth0/device/vendor 0x1106 # cat /sys/class/net/eth0/device/device 0x3106 http://www.pcidatabase.com/vendor_details.php?id=648 0x3106 Chip Number: VT6105M/LOM Chip Description: Rhine III PCI Fast Ethernet Controller # ethtool -i eth0 version: 1.5.0 firmware-version: bus-info: 0000:03:00.0 supports-statistics: no supports-test: no supports-eeprom-access: no supports-register-dump: no supports-priv-flags: no # lspci -k . . . 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
