Subjecte1000e incorrectly reports a carrier until I plug in and unplug the cable
From
This is on a Lenovo x200s, and I have this bug on both 2.6.29 and
2.6.28.8. I haven't tried any other kernels on this machine.

When I boot the system without an ethernet cable plugged in, ip link
does not show NO-CARRIER until I've plugged in and unplugged my
ethernet cable. Oddly enough, ethtool shows the correct status the
whole time. This confuses me and NetworkManager.

dmesg says:

[ 2.338427] 0000:00:19.0: eth0: (PCI Express:2.5GB/s:Width x1)
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
[ 2.338489] 0000:00:19.0: eth0: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection
[ 2.338565] 0000:00:19.0: eth0: MAC: 6, PHY: 8, PBA No: 1008ff-0ff

...

[ 35.806117] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready

ip link says (incorrectly, I believe):

2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state
UNKNOWN qlen 1000
link/ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

ethtool eth0 says (at the end):

Link detected: no

Now I plug in an ethernet cable and unplug it again (with eth0 up and
NetworkManager stopped). dmesg says:

[ 763.091333] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
[ 766.224944] 0000:00:19.0: eth0: Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex,
Flow Control: RX/TX
[ 766.226690] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready
[ 769.436269] 0000:00:19.0: eth0: Link is Down
[ 776.672111] eth0: no IPv6 routers present

ip link says:

2: eth0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state DOWN qlen 1000
link/ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Setting eth0 down and back up again does not re-break it.
