Hello bugproxy, or anyone else affected,

Accepted linux-firmware into trusty-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-
firmware/1.127.13 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Title:
  ISST-KVM:R3-0:quenv:Ubuntu 14.04.03 installation using Netboot fails
  on PowerNV machine

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux-firmware source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  [Impact]
  Users of the 3.19 kernel in Trusty will be unable to netboot if using bnx2x drivers that utilize 7.10.51.0 firmware.

  [Test Case]
  Try netboot installing on a machine that has a bnx2x driver that uses 7.10.51.0 firmware

  [Fix]
  Adding 7.10.51.0 firmware to the linux-firmware udeb

  ------------------------------------------

    DEFECT : Distros

  Description:  I tried to install ubuntu build 14.04.03 on powernv
  machine, quenv.isst.aus.stglabs.ibm.com  via netboot it is failing
  with network configuration error.

  > I have tried with 'configure network manually' option , that also
  fails.

  > Tried ubuntu 14.04 installation as well, it also fails with network
  configuration.

  > Tried ubuntu 15.10 and it installed successfully.

  Error seen is

  The network interface is using the bnx2x driver:

  Since Ubuntu 15.10  is working, but 14.04.3 is not, can someone check
  to see if there are some driver fixes that need to be backported?

  == Comment: #2 - David Heller <hellerda@xxxxxxxxxx> - 2015-06-25 19:18:01 ==
  You are probably correct: there may be some patches that need to be backported.  But it's not clear whether it's a bnx2x driver issue just yet.  I say that because of recent bug 122410 and bug 122009 which found some things lacking in the "linux-firmware" package.  Can you please check your logs to see if you have the same error messages seen there, regarding cannot load firmware?

  At the point the install fails you should be able to "go back" and
  then "execute a shell", and then you can tail your /var/log/syslog and
  see if you see those messages, or whatever the issue is you should see
  some evidence there.  You also should be able to run "lsmod", "modinfo
  bnx2x" and "ip link" from the installer shell so please collect that
  as well.

  If you can get the system booted into 14.04,3, perhaps by installing
  over a different NIC, you could check these things and the linux-
  firmware package level also.  When I logged into your node it was
  already booted into 15.10, so I went ahead and collected the info
  there.  If you could do the same for 14.04,3 we can compare.  With
  that, and the install log information, we should be able to see what
  the problem is.  Thx.
