i guess aspm (bios-setting) is not the reason because 18.4 works on same
laptop without changing this setting. i can look in bios if it is
enabled and disabling it, but this do not explain different behaviour in
18.4 vs. 20.4

i can do a git bisect if i know how to compile/install kernel in ubuntu
the save way (deb-packet) from mainline (git) source. i compile kernel
for arm (and know pkg-deb option for make) but i need to know if ubuntu
has any difference (registering in grub) before i destroy my working
system ;)

Title:
  ubuntu 20.4 - retransmitts with r8169

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  i run some network-tests (iperf3) and noticed massive retransmitts in
  ubuntu 20.4 with kernel 5.4.0-29. I'm using module r8169 for network-
  adapter

  RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 15)

  if i boot my ubuntu 18.4 and did same iperf-test (same hardware, same
  network configuration, other client is not rebooted) i have not these
  retransmitts.

  on the other side i see dropped packets, maybe flowcontrol-related?

  ethtool reports "Link partner advertised pause frame use: Symmetric"
  but maybe flowcontrol is not working...

  also driver reports flowcontrol is enabled...
