Hi,
someone mentioned to me the i217-LM problems that were reported on misc
end of May. It is possible that the patch below helps.
For us, it fixed a problem on a laptop with i217-LM (pci id 8086:153a)
where the receiving of packets would stop until the battery of the laptop
was removed (or until linux or freebsd were booted, which also have this
workaround). A normal reboot or power-cycle without removing the battery
did not help. Interestingly, not even the Intel PXE BIOS has the
workaround.
The problem would happen if the LAN cable was plugged in after the card
had already been initialized. If the LAN cable was always plugged in when
the laptop was powered on, the problem would not appear.
The workaround is part of the e1000_lv_jumbo_workaround_ich8lan() function
in e1000_ich8lan.c in freebsd, but only the part that is used if jumbo
packets are *not* configured. Linux has the same fix as
b20a774495671f037e7160ea2ce87 and da1e2046e5f5ab268e55d30d6b74099ade0aeb6f
with some more info in the commit messages.
This probably has quite some potential to cause regressions with other
boards, so i am not sure if it should go in before 5.8 release.
Cheers,
Stefan
