Hello, thank you for taking the time to open this bug report.

Unfortunately, we cannot update just a single driver in the source tree
for most of the drivers in the linux kernel.  There are a few of options
that may help though.

1) If you are running Jammy (22.04), it initially shipped with the 5.15
kernel as you note, but there is now a 6.8 based kernel available for
it.  So, you can upgrade the kernel in the 22.04 install to the 7.8
based kernel, and this will include a newer version of the ice driver.
Perhaps this driver will be more stable for you.

2) You can test out the newest release,  Noble (24.04) which has a 6.8
based kernel, and will be moving to a newer kernel once 24.10 is
released.  The 6.8 kernel is the same one that we backport and make
available on 22.04.

3) If the Intel provided packages driver packages work for you, they may
be sufficient to use.  I cannot comment on this though, because I have
not tried the packages, and we do not support them.  So, if there are
issues, and we need to look into it, the first thing that will be
recommended is to uninstall those drivers.


I will be closing this bug, but if you disagree with my comments, or have any 
additional information, please re-open it, and let me know.

Title:
  ice driver in ubuntu 20.04 & 22.04 kernel drops a lot of packages

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  We're using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and 22.04 LTS on Supermicro servers with
  AOC-S25GC-i2S network card (Intel E810-XXVAM2 Ethernet Controller). We
  observed that the preloaded ice driver with the kernel (5.4.0-xxx in
  Ubuntu 20.04 and 5.15.0-xxx in Ubuntu 22.04) working abnormally, that
  made a lot of drop packages in the network interface (we're using LACP
  linux bonding). Manually update the driver to lastest version
  (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19630/822519/intel-
  network-adapter-driver-for-e810-series-devices-under-linux.html) solve
  the problem. Please load the new ice driver version to the next kernel
  version.
