--- Begin Message ---Package: acpi-support Version: 0.140-5 Severity: normal We recently received new servers with Asus P9D-I mainboards. These mainboards have two Intel I210 NICs onboard: root@debian:~# lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Haswell DRAM Controller (rev 06) 00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation Lynx Point USB xHCI Host Controller (rev 05) 00:1a.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation Lynx Point USB Enhanced Host Controller #2 (rev 05) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Lynx Point PCI Express Root Port #1 (rev d5) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Lynx Point PCI Express Root Port #2 (rev d5) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Lynx Point PCI Express Root Port #3 (rev d5) 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation Lynx Point USB Enhanced Host Controller #1 (rev 05) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation Lynx Point LPC Controller (rev 05) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation Lynx Point 6-port SATA Controller 1 [AHCI mode] (rev 05) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation Lynx Point SMBus Controller (rev 05) 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 03) 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 03) 03:00.0 PCI bridge: ASPEED Technology, Inc. AST1150 PCI-to-PCI Bridge (rev 02) 04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ASPEED Technology, Inc. ASPEED Graphics Family (rev 21) Both NICs are connected to a switch. Unfortunately, these NICs had weird issues whenever we installed our Debian-based system (essentially Debian wheezy, but with a lot of packages preinstalled). Sometimes both NICs were affected, sometimes only one (usually eth1). They would show up in ifconfig: root@debian:~# ifconfig -a eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr ac:22:0b:8b:30:a7 inet addr:10.255.236.255 Bcast:10.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: fe80::ae22:bff:fe8b:30a7/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1492 Metric:1 RX packets:1324 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:168 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:107124 (104.6 KiB) TX bytes:25199 (24.6 KiB) Memory:dfe00000-dfe80000 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr ac:22:0b:8b:30:a8 BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) Memory:dfd00000-dfd80000 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) But enabling the affected NIC or accessing it with ethtool would fail: root@debian:~# ifconfig eth1 up SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device root@debian:~# dhclient eth1 RTNETLINK answers: No such device root@debian:~# ethtool eth1 Settings for eth1: Cannot get device settings: No such device Cannot get wake-on-lan settings: No such device Cannot get message level: No such device Cannot get link status: No such device No data available After we noticed that a clean Wheezy installation was not affected, we looked for differences between the clean installation and our system, and we tracked the issue down to acpi-support. The following command from the init script: root@debian:~# grep -m1 on_ac_power /etc/init.d/acpi-support on_ac_power || /etc/acpi/power.sh true behaves unexpectedly because on_ac_power returns 255 on these servers: root@debian:~# on_ac_power ; echo $? 255 It therefore believes that the server is on battery power, and enables power saving. This in turn modifies the NICs - I believe the relevant section from /var/log/pm-powersave.log is this one: Running hook /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/pci_devices true: Setting Host Bridge 0000:00:00.0 to auto Setting Ethernet device 0000:01:00.0 to auto Setting Ethernet device 0000:02:00.0 to auto This seems to be the cause for our issue. We will resolve the issue by replacing acpi-support with acpi-support-base in our system dependencies, but I filed this bug anyway because this issue was very hard to track down and the information could be useful for others. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.10-0.bpo.3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages acpi-support depends on: ii acpi-fakekey 0.140-5 ii acpi-support-base 0.140-5 ii acpid 1:2.0.16-1+deb7u1 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian8+deb7u1 ii pm-utils 1.4.1-9 ii x11-xserver-utils 7.7~3 Versions of packages acpi-support recommends: ii dbus 1.6.8-1+deb7u1 ii radeontool 1.6.2-1.1 ii vbetool 1.1-2 ii xscreensaver 5.15-3 Versions of packages acpi-support suggests: pn rfkill <none> pn xinput <none> -- no debconf information
