I've been working with the Intel E1000 development team in trying to find the cause of a hardware hang in my kern.log. They suggested contacting the Debian User list for extra help, whom suggested that I ask the Kernel list to see if I could get any insight.
This is the error in my kern.log: Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204500] e1000e 0000:02:00.0: eth1: Detected Hardware Unit Hang: Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204503] TDH <8c> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204504] TDT <8f> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204505] next_to_use <8f> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204506] next_to_clean <8c> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204508] buffer_info[next_to_clean]: Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204509] time_stamp <10c029ca3> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204510] next_to_watch <8c> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204511] jiffies <10c029dc2> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204512] next_to_watch.status <0> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204513] MAC Status <80383> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204514] PHY Status <792d> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204516] PHY 1000BASE-T Status <3800> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204517] PHY Extended Status <3000> Jul 24 02:49:45 gaia kernel: [806292.204518] PCI Status <10> One of the steps to find the cause of this is to enable extended error reporting by using ethtool: sudo ethtool -s eth1 msglvl 0x2c01 This will tell the driver to dump extended debugging (a PCIe Ring Dump) info to the kernel log with another error is detected. However, after enabling this extended logging, the next time an error occurs, I still don't get the debug dump in the kern.log. I get basically the same info as above. Is there anything Debian specific that would cause this to not get logged? I've tried searching all of the log files in /var/log for the dump information in case it gets logged somewhere else, but could not find anything. I have checked to make sure that the debug message level is set correctly: Settings for eth1: Supported ports: [ TP ] Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Full Supports auto-negotiation: Yes Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Full Advertised pause frame use: No Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes Speed: 1000Mb/s Duplex: Full Port: Twisted Pair PHYAD: 1 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: on MDI-X: off Supports Wake-on: pumbag Wake-on: g Current message level: 0x00002c01 (11265) Link detected: yes Any help would be appreciated.
