Description Flavio Leitner 2008-07-23 16:58:19 UTC
Description of problem:

Even if a magic packet is sent to LAN card which uses igb driver after 
shutting down the system, the system does not boot.
This problem occurs on both i386 and x86_64 architecture.

Hardware info:
Machine : Express5800/140Rf-4
CPU     : Intel(R) Xeon 2.40GHz x 1
Memory  : 2GB

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL4.7 Beta
kernel-2.6.9-70.EL
kernel-smp-2.6.9-70.EL

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEL4.7 Beta, and reboot.
2. Shut down the server.
3. Send magic packet to the port of LAN card of the server which uses 
   igb driver.

Actual results:
System does not boot.

Expected results:
System boots.

Additional info:
- This problem occurs on RHEL4.6.
- The attached patch (igb-wol_rhel47.patch) fixes this problem and it is 
very close to the one proposed in bz#432364 for e1000e.

Updating PM score.

Comment 4 Jesse Brandeburg 2008-09-11 17:38:08 UTC
I agree this patch should fix the problem.  This is another bug introduced due to having to backport from kernel.org.

Comment 7 Vivek Goyal 2008-11-27 19:38:34 UTC
Committed in 78.20.EL . RPMS are available at http://people.redhat.com/vgoyal/rhel4/

Comment 10 Chris Ward 2009-05-05 13:57:08 UTC
Any updates here? Has this issue been resolved in the RHEL 4.8 Beta? later kernel?
