| |
Hi all,
You receive this mail because I raised a bug report against the bnxt_en driver in the Linux kernel on launchpad.net: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1931106 I was advised there to get in touch with you here.
We received a bunch of new servers with a Supermicro H12SSL-NT mainboard that has an embedded Broadcom BCM57416 NIC.
On all those servers we observe crashes of the NIC driver (bnxt_en) from time to time. We're not able to manually reproduce this issue, it just occurs at some point. Also our monitoring does not show any irregularities(high traffic flow or sth. like this).
All servers are running with up-to-date packages: $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS Release: 20.04
We tested the kernel versions 5.4.0-73 back to -66, the current HWE kernel 5.8.0-55 as well as the latest mainline kernel 5.13.0-051300rc5. On those 20 servers the crash occurs like ~1-2 times a week. Just with the 5.13.0 kernel the driver crashed on all 5 servers running that version within 1-2 hours after installing that kernel version.
Syslog 5.4.0-73 kernel: https://pastebin.com/yDAyjHvF Syslog 5.13-rc5 kernel: https://pastebin.com/GWqtVaA3 Apport file: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1931106/+attachment/5502930/+files/apport.linux-image-5.8.0-55-generic.cime34c6.apport

Thanks in advance. ~ Roman
