Title:
ixgbe driver fails while loading in kernel for NIC 8086 :10fb (rev 01)
subsystem 103c:17d0
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network
Connection (rev 0)
PCIID: 8086:10fb subsystem 103c:17d0
I have tried to install Ubuntu 16.04 with default kernel v4.4 and backported
kernel from 18.04 v4.15. PXE boot process works well till the moment when the
installer tries to load the ixgbe driver for NIC. The driver fails to
initialize NIC with the following error messages in the syslog:
ixgbe: Intel(r) 10 Gigabit PCI Express Network Driver - version 5.1.0-k
ixgne: Copyright (c) 1999-20016 Intel Corporation
ixgbe: probe of 0000:03:00.0 failed with error -5
ixgbe: probe of 0000:03:00.1 failed with error -5
I have used the most recent initrd and kernel from
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial-updates/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hwe-netboot/ubuntu-installer/amd64/
file linux initrd.gz
linux: Linux/x86 Kernel, Setup Version 0x20d, bzImage, Version 4.15.0,
Version 4.15.0-45, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0x7, Normal VGA
initrd.gz: gzip compressed data, was "initrd", from Unix, last modified: Wed

============================
Also I'd like to say that
* the same issue with ixgbe 4.2.1-k if I use the installer of Ubuntu 16.04
with kernel v4.4
* ixgbe v4.2.1-k from SLES12SP2 works correctly.
#this is SLES12 host with more info about ixgbe from SLES12.
