Public bug reported:
I want to have some especial configuration done on eth0 when it is
brought up (setting MTU, configuring what speed to run, etc.), so I have
added those commands to the "eth0" stanza in /etc/network/interfaces.
However, upon upgrading to 13.04, this now causes the system to pause
during boot "waiting for network configuration" (NOTE: The network is
physically connected and ready to operate). Disabling the "eth0" stanza
will allow boot to continue normally.
In other words, this hangs the boot for over a minute:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
up ethtool -K eth0 gso on
up ethtool -s eth0 advertise 0x3f
up ethtool -s eth0 wol a
mtu 6000
Removing that from /etc/network/interfaces allows the boot to continue.
This is a new behavior in 13.04 - 12.10 worked just fine.
Steps to reproduce:
Insure the system has a working wired network connection that will be available
at boot.
Add the following to /etc/network/interfaces
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
reboot.
Expected results:
eth0 brought up during boot with no significant delay
Actual results:
Boot delayed over 60 seconds.
