Hi Matt, I guess the changes between those two kernels are moderately limited: linux-stable$ git lg --no-merges v3.9.5..v3.11.4 drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/ |wc -l 51 In the vanilla tree there are some fixes on that driver although nothing is catching my eye atm: linux$ git lg --no-merges v3.11..HEAD drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/ * 0fb88d6 - (2013-10-18 16:32:31 -0400) be2net: pass if_id for v1 and V2 versions of TX_CREATE cmd <Vasundhara Volam> * a60b3a1 - (2013-09-27 17:11:49 -0400) be2net: Fix to display the VLAN priority for a VF <Ajit Khaparde> * b9fc0e53 - (2013-09-27 17:11:49 -0400) be2net: Fix to configure VLAN priority for a VF interface. <Ajit Khaparde> * 45c4597 - (2013-09-27 17:11:49 -0400) be2net: Fix to allow VLAN configuration on VF interfaces. <Ajit Khaparde> * 1aa9673 - (2013-09-27 17:11:49 -0400) be2net: Fix number of VLANs supported in UMC mode for BE3-R. <Ajit Khaparde> * d9d604f - (2013-09-27 17:11:49 -0400) be2net: Fix VLAN promiscuous mode programming <Ajit Khaparde> * d44517fd - (2013-09-27 17:11:49 -0400) be2net: Fix the size of be_nic_res_desc structure <Ajit Khaparde> * b54881f - (2013-09-27 17:11:48 -0400) be2net: Fix to prevent Tx stall on SH-R when packet size < 32 <Ajit Khaparde> * 922bbe8 - (2013-09-13 20:08:06 -0400) be2net: missing variable initialization <Antonio Alecrim Jr> * a77dcb8 - (2013-09-03 22:20:18 -0400) be2net: set and query VEB/VEPA mode of the PF interface <Ajit Khaparde> * ede23fa - (2013-08-29 21:55:23 -0400) drivers:net: Convert dma_alloc_coherent(...__GFP_ZERO) to dma_zalloc_coherent <Joe Perches> * 68d7bdc - (2013-08-27 15:57:05 -0400) be2net: implement ethtool set/get_channel hooks <Sathya Perla> * 7707133 - (2013-08-27 15:57:05 -0400) be2net: refactor be_setup() to consolidate queue creation routines <Sathya Perla> * bea5098 - (2013-08-27 15:57:05 -0400) be2net: Fix be_cmd_if_create() to use MBOX if MCCQ is not created <Sathya Perla> * 92bf14a - (2013-08-27 15:57:04 -0400) be2net: refactor be_get_resources() code <Sathya Perla> * 150d58c - (2013-08-27 15:57:04 -0400) be2net: Fixup profile management routines <Vasundhara Volam> * f2f781a - (2013-08-27 15:57:04 -0400) be2net: use EQ_CREATEv2 for SH-R <Sathya Perla> * 5721f94 - (2013-08-07 10:39:10 -0700) be2net: update driver version <Sathya Perla> * 117affe - (2013-08-07 10:39:09 -0700) be2net: Initialize "status" in be_cmd_get_die_temperature() <Vasundhara Volam> * 05ccaa2 - (2013-08-07 10:39:08 -0700) be2net: fixup log msgs for async events <Vasundhara Volam> * 68cb7e4 - (2013-08-07 10:39:06 -0700) be2net: Fix displaying supported speeds for BE2 <Vasundhara Volam> * fd8c7be - (2013-08-07 10:39:06 -0700) be2net: don't limit max MAC and VLAN counts <Vasundhara Volam> * d696b5e - (2013-08-07 10:39:05 -0700) be2net: Do not call get_die_temperature cmd for VF <Vasundhara Volam> * b971f84 - (2013-08-07 10:39:04 -0700) be2net: Adding more speeds reported by get_settings <Vasundhara Volam> * 4188e7d - (2013-08-05 11:05:23 -0700) be2net: Staticize local functions <Jingoo Han> * 4ce1fd6 - (2013-07-30 00:00:20 -0700) be2net: don't use dev_err when AER enabling fails <Ivan Vecera> * 2d17f40 - (2013-07-24 15:41:53 -0700) be2net: delete primary MAC address while unloading <Sathya Perla> * 3175d8c - (2013-07-24 15:41:52 -0700) be2net: use SET/GET_MAC_LIST for SH-R <Sathya Perla> * 95046b9 - (2013-07-24 15:41:52 -0700) be2net: refactor MAC-addr setup code <Sathya Perla> * b5bb977 - (2013-07-24 15:41:52 -0700) be2net: fix pmac_id for BE3 VFs <Sathya Perla> * 04a0602 - (2013-07-24 15:41:52 -0700) be2net: allow VFs to program MAC and VLAN filters <Sathya Perla> * 5a712c1 - (2013-07-24 15:41:52 -0700) be2net: fix MAC address modification for VF <Sathya Perla> The only issue I can think of is mentioned in the following commit in the net tree: e9e2a904ef0a4f46ee5c845f3ae04e62b917bb6d be2net: Warn users of possible broken functionality on BE2 cards with very old FW versions with latest driver On very old FW versions < 4.0, the mailbox command to set interrupts on the card succeeds even though it is not supported and should have failed, leading to a scenario where interrupts do not work. Hence warn users to upgrade to a suitable FW version to avoid seeing broken functionality. Signed-off-by: Somnath Kotur <somnath.kotur> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem> Matt, I'd try updating the firmware as I see it is 2.102.517.7 and the above commit suggests that at least 4.xyz is needed (at least in the future we will get a warning). Can you let me know how it goes? hth, Michele Hi Matt, have you been able to try a later firmware version? (3.13 kernels will warn against old firwmare now): + if (BE2_chip(adapter) && fw_major_num(adapter->fw_ver) < 4) { + dev_err(dev, "Firmware on card is old(%s), IRQs may not work.", + adapter->fw_ver); + dev_err(dev, "Please upgrade firmware to version >= 4.0\n"); + } regards, Michele *********** MASS BUG UPDATE ************** This bug has been in a needinfo state for more than 1 month and is being closed with insufficient data due to inactivity.
