[Bug 1269883] Re: Bad performance of Ethernet on USB3 port, dmesg flooded with errors
Hello Christopher,
> 1) Could you please plug your ASIX device in, execute the following in a terminal and post it to this report:
> usb-devices
Please see attached file
usb-devices_output_with_0b95_1790_ASIX_Electronics_Corp_USB2_port.txt
Currently, other than the device, only a mouse is physically plugged to
an external USB port. Oher hardware listed (card reader, wifi, hubs,
webcam) is permanently part of the laptop.
In case it matters, I haven't rebooted since last post, so still running
Linux n55sf-l 3.12.0-031200rc7-generic #201310271935 SMP Sun Oct 27 23:37:06 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
> 2) Are you using a default install drivers (i.e. provided by supported
> Ubuntu repositories), the following PPA driver
> https://launchpad.net/~qji/+archive/ax88179 , something else?
I haven't done anything about the device at any time : no PPA, no manual driver install, no user-space tool install, no nothing.
Just plug the device (and an Ethernet cable).
Only kernel-side maneuver was to install bumblebee (from regular package
else machine draws a lot of power, heats and makes a loud fan noise, all
cleanly fixed by bumblebee).
Regards,

Title:
Bad performance of Ethernet on USB3 port, dmesg flooded with errors
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Plugging USB-to-ethernet device ID 0b95:1790 ASIX Electronics Corp. in
USB3 port yields slow performance, dmesg flooded with errors. Plugging
on USB2 port, exact same situation otherwise, works well. This is
reproducible 3 out of 4 attempts. Machine has 2 USB3 ports on the
left, 2 USB2 ports on the right.
### When working (USB2 port)
* ethernet auto-negociation is fast
* mii-tool is fast (typical 0.05s)
* few lines in dmesg
* good performance
### When failing :
* ethernet auto-negociation fails, then sometimes eventually works
* mii-tool is slow (10s of seconds instead of 0.05s)
time sudo mii-tool
eth0: no link
eth1: 10 Mbit, half duplex, no link
real 0m40.014s
user 0m0.013s
sys 0m0.006s
time sudo mii-tool
eth0: no link
eth1: 10 Mbit, half duplex, no link
real 0m50.015s
user 0m0.011s
sys 0m0.011s
time sudo mii-tool
eth0: no link
eth1: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok
real 0m10.051s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.012s
But on some attempts mii-tool is fast...
time sudo mii-tool
eth0: no link
eth1: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok
real 0m0.057s
user 0m0.011s
sys 0m0.012s
* DHCP eventually completes (after about 30 seconds) then ethernet works.
* whole system behaviour feels a little sluggish (not very clear, though)
* mii-tool still slow (10s of seconds instead of 0.05s)
## dmesg when failing
Full dmesg attached.
Specific lines with occurrence count at random point (obtained with
"dmesg | sed 's/^................//' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n" ).
