[Bug 961239] Re: 14e4:1648 Broadcom NIC (tg3) not working with DMA errors

 

I'm having the exact same behavior. Dell T300 server running Ubuntu
13.10. ( 3.11.0-15-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Mon Dec 9 18:17:04 UTC 2013
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)

eth0 fails, eth1 works flawlessly.

/var/log/kern.log:Jan 15 20:40:15 kernel: [   78.704013] tg3 0000:01:00.0: vpd r/w failed.  This is likely a firmware bug on this device.  Contact the card vendor for a firmware update.

ethtool -i eth0

Title:
  14e4:1648 Broadcom NIC (tg3) not working with DMA errors

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  All information should be included in the attached debug information - short summary:
  While setting the network interface "up" after boot (ip link set up dev eth0), I get some DMA errors and dumps from tg3. After that the interface is "up", but I'm unable to pass any traffic over that network interface.
