Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 606104
sky2 causes broadcast storm after being shutdown
Last modified: 2011-06-04 13:00:35 EDT
Description of problem: After I shutdown my machine the network link stays on. When another device on my switched network does a DHCP request (i.e. broadcast) the sky2 adapter will start to cause a broadcast storm over-flooding the gigabit switch rendering the network completely useless. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.33.5-124.fc13.x86_64 How reproducible: Allways Steps to Reproduce: 1. Shutdown F13 2. (re) start another device on the network 3. Actual results: sky2 causes network storm after receiving a network broadcast/dhcp request Expected results: sky2 does not cause network storm after receiving the broadcast network packets. Additional info: Any device (both wireless and wired) will cause my shutdown machine to start broadcasting. When I manually shutdown the network connected to the sky2 adapter before shutting down my machine the network link goes down and the adapter no longer causes the problems. Sequence used: - disable NetworkManager (service NetworkManager stop) - bring down eth0 (ifdown eth) - shutdown machine I've just upgraded to F13 x86_64 when noticing this problem. Before F13 I was running F11 x86_64 (fully updated) which did not have this problem.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
I no longer have this problem with the latest kernels on F14 and F15.
