[Bug 1453404] Re: r8169 occasionally doesn't work after suspend

 

Boris Gjenero, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better. Could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from
the very top line at the top of the page (the release names are
irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily folder)
following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow
additional upstream developers to examine the issue.

If the test did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Where XY and Z are numbers corresponding to the kernel version.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

Thank you for your understanding.

  Occasionally the onboard gigabit Ethernet on this Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R
  rev 1.0 motherboard doesn't work after suspend. This happens less than
- one out of ten times. Over the last several Ubuntu releases, "sudo
- ifconfig eth0 down" followed by "sudo ifconfig eth0 up" has always been
- enough to re-establish connectivity. A long time ago, I sometimes had to
- unload and reload the r8169 module. This was the first time this bug
- happened in Ubuntu 15.04.
+ one out of ten times. This was the first time this bug happened in
+ Ubuntu 15.04.
  
- A similar bug already exists at
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/771857 . I am reporting this here
- because the last comment there asks for a report via "ubuntu-bug linux".
+ WORKAROUND: sudo ifconfig eth0 down && sudo ifconfig eth0 up
  
- Right now, as a workaround, I'm installing the r8168-dkms package, which
- includes the proprietary Realtek driver.
+ WORKAROUND: Unload and reload the r8169 module.
  
- Here is lspci -v output for this ethernet controller:
