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- disco' to 'verification-done-disco'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-disco' to 'verification-failed-disco'.
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.

It makes sense to add i40evf especially for SR-IOV enabled clouds with Intel X710/XXV710/XL710. [Fix] Add i40evf to linux-modules package [Test] Extract linux-modules to check if i40evf is there [Regression Potential] Low ========= original bug description ========= For example with bionic, i40evf module is in linux-modules-extra-4.15*-generic. However, cloudimg doesn't have linux-modules-extra seeded: $ curl -s http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/bionic/release/ubuntu-18.04-server-cloudimg-amd64.manifest | grep linux- linux-base 4.5ubuntu1 linux-headers-4.15.0-65 4.15.0-65.74 linux-headers-4.15.0-65-generic 4.15.0-65.74 linux-headers-generic 4.15.0.65.67 linux-headers-virtual 4.15.0.65.67 linux-image-4.15.0-65-generic 4.15.0-65.74 linux-image-virtual 4.15.0.65.67 linux-modules-4.15.0-65-generic 4.15.0-65.74 linux-virtual 4.15.0.65.67 We don't need the whole linux-modules-extra because the size is not small, but we need some VF drivers in cloud guest image embedded for SR-IOV enabled cloud including OpenStack. Otherwise, the guest is unusable with no network device. $ apt show linux-modules-extra-4.15.0-58-generic |& grep Installed-Size Installed-Size: 171 MB $ du -h /lib/modules/4.15.0-58-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40evf.ko 148K /lib/modules/4.15.0-58-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40evf.ko ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: livecd-rootfs (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: User Name 4.15.0-58.64-generic 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-58-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.7 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu Oct 17 10:48:41 2019 ProcEnviron: TERM=screen-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=C.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: livecd-rootfs UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1848481/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
