Description Robert de Rooy 2016-10-11 20:05:00 UTC
Description of problem:
After upgrading to F25 Beta, the logs on my ThinkPad X1 Yoga are getting flooded with the message: "cdc_ether 2-4.1.3:2.0 eth0: kevent 11 may have been dropped"

The first error is for kevent 12, subsequent errors are all kevent 11.

The only recourse is to unload the module, and blacklist it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
$ uname -a
Linux x1yoga 4.8.1-1.fc25.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Oct 7 14:38:22 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

How reproducible:
Did not happen with F24, new issue with F25 Beta

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot F25 on ThinkPad X1 Yogo
2.
3.

Actual results:

Comment 1 audunroe 2016-11-14 10:12:15 UTC
Started seeing what I assume to be the same issue from cdc_ether on F24 after updating to the 4.8.4 and 4.8.6 kernel. No such issues when booting with 4.7.9. Did not notice this for a while because network was still working, it's just dmesg getting flooded.
This on a Lenovo X1 Carbon 3rd gen using a OneLink Pro dock (Ethernet over USB). 

My current workaround is blacklisting cdc_ether in /etc/modprobe.d, which causes r8152 to be used instead. I had been doing it the other way around for some time (i.e. blacklisting r8152) due to losing connectivity when redocking, if both modules were loaded. Don't recall the details anymore, but some issue with "link is not ready".

Can confirm this for F25 using Lenovo X1 Carbon 4th gen & Onelink+ dock.

According to what I've read this should be posted to the linux-usb vger.kernel list however I can't search that list as gmane seems to be still recovering from it's recent bork and I don't use NNTP for anything so frankly don't want to install stuff just to post this.  Could the kernel maintainer upstream this to the correct location as it's not just a Lenovo issue.

Comment 8 NMueller 2016-12-19 22:57:10 UTC
For me, this problem seems fixed after updating to kernel 4.8.14-300.fc25.x86_64.

Comment 9 Robert de Rooy 2016-12-22 16:18:35 UTC
I don't see the kevent 11 messages any longer with 4.8.14-300, but do still get the occasional kevent 12. Here is my log since last booting on the 19th;

[robert@x1yoga ~]$ journalctl -b|grep kevent

I suspect these may have been the times I attached the Yoga to the Dock.

Comment 10 Laura Abbott 2017-01-17 01:15:37 UTC
*********** MASS BUG UPDATE **************
We apologize for the inconvenience.  There is a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale.  Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 25 kernel bugs.
 
Fedora 25 has now been rebased to 4.9.3-200.fc25.  Please test this kernel update (or newer) and let us know if you issue has been resolved or if it is still present with the newer kernel.
 
If you have moved on to Fedora 26, and are still experiencing this issue, please change the version to Fedora 26.
 
If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.

Comment 11 Robert de Rooy 2017-01-20 07:18:14 UTC
Closing this bug report as I no longer get the flood of kevent 11 messages.
