results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
trusty' to 'verification-done-trusty'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will

Title:
  Backport igb fix to trusty (kernel 3.13)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Trusty:
  In Progress
Status in “linux” source package in Utopic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'd like to request that the following trivial patch be backported
  into the trusty kernel:

  https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb?id=e66c083aab32842f225bae2a2c30744bf96abaec

  Without this patch, it's extremely difficult to debug packet loss
  issues on igb interfaces because as soon as you've had one rx drop
  ethtool will report constant rx drops (because the counter is not
  reset).
