Fwd: [Bug 1367851] Re: BL460Gen9 gets IP Address only on NIC port2 with Ubuntu 14.04/14.04.1

[Narinder Gupta]

Hi All,
There is a issue reported by HP where NIC1 of gen9 blade can not be enabled
if broadcom controller is used. After consultation with broadcom it was
found that patch
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/358990/ fixes the issue. As i can observe
that this patch is there in 3.16 stable kernel upstream
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnx2x/bnx2x_link.c?id=refs/tags/v3.16.3

This requested is to backport this patch to trusty SRU kenrel as this is
blocking issue for  BL460c Gen9 certification in 1P mode.

Being criticality of the feature can we take this in Oct SRU cycle starting
next week?

Thanks and Regards,

Title:
  BL460Gen9 gets IP Address only on NIC port2 with Ubuntu 14.04/14.04.1

Status in HP Ubuntu collaboration.:
  New

Bug description:
  BL460Gen9  does not get IP addresses on both the NIC ports with Ubuntu
  14.04/14.04.1

  The NIC card in the blade is "Broadcom Corporation BCM57840 NetXtreme
  II 10/20-Gigabit Ethernet".

  The NIC port 1 does not get an IP address both during install and
  after install.

  I have attached the dmesg and lspci logs captured from the installer.
