Hello
My Dell PowerEdge R815 doesn't have IPMI anymore when I boot a 4.8
kernel, the BMC doesn't even ping anymore. Its Ethernet devices are 4 of
those:
01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5709 Gigabit
Ethernet (rev 20)
DeviceName: Embedded NIC 1
Subsystem: Dell NetXtreme II BCM5709 Gigabit Ethernet
Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr-
Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx+
Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort-
<MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-
Latency: 0, Cache Line Size: 64 bytes
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 42
Region 0: Memory at e6000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=32M]
Capabilities: <access denied>
Kernel driver in use: bnx2
Kernel modules: bnx2
The only change in bnx2 between 4.7 and 4.8 appears to be this one:
commit 3e1be7ad2d38c6bd6aeef96df9bd0a7822f4e51c
Author: Baoquan He <[email protected]>
Date: Fri Sep 9 22:43:12 2016 +0800
bnx2: Reset device during driver initialization
Could you patch actually break the BMC? What do I need to further debug
this issue?
Thanks
Brice
