This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- cosmic' to 'verification-done-cosmic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-cosmic' to 'verification-failed- cosmic'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

Both of them are in 5.0. commit 8e29d23e28ee7fb995a00c1ca7e1a4caf5070b12 Author: David Chen david.ch...@dell.com Date: Sat Feb 16 17:16:42 2019 +0800 r8152: Add support for MAC address pass through on RTL8153-BD commit c286909fe5458f69e533c845b757fd2c35064d26 Author: David Chen david.ch...@dell.com Date: Wed Feb 20 13:47:19 2019 +0800 r8152: Fix an error on RTL8153-BD MAC Address Passthrough support * Testcase: BIOS settings must be properly set before verifying. 1.[Settings][POST Behavior][MAC Address Pass-Through]: Passthrough MAC Address 2. There should be two MAC addresses in BIOS settings, ex: [Settings][General][System Information] Attach the dongle and see if MAC passthrough works. * Risk of Regression: Clean cherry-pick from mainline, and only add specific hardware to the whitelist. Risk is low.
