Hi, I notice a regression report on Bugzilla [1]. Quoting from it: > 6e98b09da931a00bf4e0477d0fa52748bf28fcce > OS slackware64-current fully upto date, on an AMD 990fx motherboard with a > Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 09). > Linux-rt-devel-rc2-rt1 and linux-rt-devel-6.4-rc3-rt2 had same issue, previous linux-rt-devel-6.3.3-rt15 worked with no issue. > > Hello I suspect this series of commits is causing the full system lock im having when using the r8169 driver with linux-rt-devel-6.4-rc3-rt2. With the driver enabled my system locks up with a few mins of booting and logging into desktop. I have to use power off button and reboot to older kernel. With the r8169 driver blacklisted the kernel works perfectly. > My syslog attachment shows the driver errors and after looking at commits I saw the above numbered as being the most likly cause. > A member of oftc linux-rt irc channel looked and gave the comment posted below. > "tell the driver maintainers they must not enable the irq in the napi poll function" > He said it looked like that could be causing the errors and then full system lockup. > please contact me if any further information is required. > > My fix has been blacklist r8169 and use the r8168 driver from relatek with a patch to enable builfing with the 6.4 kernel. > Thank you for your time > SamW See Bugzilla for the full thread and attached syslog. Anyway, I'm adding it to regzbot: #regzbot introduced: 6e98b09da931a0 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217519 #regzbot title: Networking pull for v6.4 causes full system lockup on RTL8111/8168/8411 Thanks.
