Bug Description

I installed a cli 2.6.22-14-xen based system from an ubuntu-7.10-alternate-amd64.iso image.
Everything worked fine untill I rebooted the system afterwhich eth0 dissappears and re-appears as eth1 with an incorrect mac-address (FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF)
This of course results in my static network configuration not functioning as eth0 no longer exists.
No matter how many times I reboot the system eth0 remains eth1 and assumes the mac-address (FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF)
Only after shutting down the system and removing the power for about 5-10 seconds does eth0 return with the correct mac-address.

I have tried 3 different kernels without any improvement
   2.6.22-14-xen (ubuntu)
   2.6.22-14-generic (ubuntu)
   2.6.23.8 (kernel.org - compiled using config from 2.6.22-14-generic)

My Gigabyte G33M-DS2R motherboard has an on-board Realtek RTL8111b (see results of lspci below for more details)

By default, the kernel chooses the r8169 module for this device.
I tried using the r8168 as supplied by Realtek on their web site (r8168-8.003.00.tar.bz2)
This also did not solve the problem.

I suspect that there might be an issue with udev.

This is known issue... i had one PC with this card and WindowsXp installed in my network. And it seems like there is no fix for it, see:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=116414200419321&w=2

I leave this bug confirmed, but it should be changed to "Will Not be Fixed"

I don't know if it is a problem with xen or with the network interface driver.

The big question is, should the original MAC address to be restored on startup of the machine or not?

Whats happening here is that xen is moving the physical interface eth0 to peth0. The dom0 will use a virtual interface eth0 which get the original MAC address of the network card. peth0 which is the physical card is only in bridging mode and has the virtual MAC address FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. After the restart peth0 has still FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF which is wrong because it will be loaded as eth0 first. Then it starts from the beginning, eth0 with the wrong MAC will be copied to peth0 and the wrong MAC will be transported to the virtual device eth0.

There are two ways how that problem can be solved.

1. with xend stop the script network-bridge should be started with parameter stop, at this point the original mac address we be set to the physical device again.
2. on every startup or load of the module r8169 the mac address has to be set to the interface card.

Perhaps anybody can give more hints to following points:

1. Is there a command to restore the original MAC address of a r8169 interface card?
2. Should the original MAC address not be set back on system startup by the interface itself?

- hardware of r8169 is broken and ( linux/windows ) driver can't do any thing about it.
- ubuntu should hard connect mac with interface, so 00:1A:4D:##:##:## = eth0 and FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF = eth1, _see_ /etc/iftab

1. yes, ip l set eth0 addr 04:44:44:44:44:04
2. no. this is hardware problem and only complete power off can help.

hmmm... please can you attach your dmesg. and if it possible with newest hardy kernel.
If it really not fixable hardware problem, kernel should warn about it. if not - i will take this bug.

Sorry, no actual kernel, i tried to compile the original Realtek driver but i had no success on compile, i will retry it asap.
Due i have only one networking card of that type i perhaps i should change my udev rules file. Remove the MAC address and include the vendor or something else.

Following workaround if only one card of this type is installed.

File /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", SYSFS{vendor}=="0x10ec", SYSFS{device}=="0x8167", NAME="eth0"

The card is always eth0 with every MAC address, even with the wrong.

File /etc/network/interfaces

The Realtek driver is not working better, one additional problem i have found. the peth0 interface (physical in xen configuration) is responding to arp requests even if no arp is configured). Perhaps it's an additional problem of the hardware.

I used http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/linux-image-2.6.24-1-server_2.6.24-1.2_amd64.deb instead because i use a amd64 system. I hope it is also ok.

can you please test if MAC will be recovered after complete poweroff.
And try to disable "wake on lan" in BIOS.

Claus, or you have a bit different issue to primary post or you didn't wrote or tested some thing. Primary bug is:
1. first start, mac is correct
2. after reboot or normal poweroff, mac is wrong ( fe:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff ).
3. after complete poweroff ( PC should be _unplugged_ for at lest 10 seconds ) mac will be recovered.

probably you should remove/comment udev and/or interfaces entry's you made.
To exclude other services start machine in "recovery mode" / single mode and check if mac is still fe:ff...
If mac still fe:ff.. set it some thing other for example 11:22:33.... and reboot again in recovery mode.

try to get some more info.

1. yes
2. yes
3. no, even with switched off machine und unplugged network and electricity there is a wrong mac

the card is storing the changed mac and remember on next boot. i changed a few things and use a workaround now which makes sense only if there is not more then one r8169 inside of the machine.

#17

Beginning with the Hardy Heron 8.04 development cycle, all open Ubuntu kernel bugs need to be reported against the "linux" kernel package. We are automatically migrating this bug to the new "linux" package. However, development has already began for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. It would be helpful if you could test the upcoming release and verify if this is still an issue - http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . If the issue still exists, please update this report by changing the Status of the "linux" task from "Incomplete" to "New". We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make this transition. Thanks!

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test:

1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux-image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test.

--or--

2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD.

Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback.

Can you also confirm this issue exists with the most recent Karmic Koala 9.10 Alpha release? ISO CD images are available at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/karmic/ . If the issue remains with Karmic it would be great to then also test the latest upstream mainline kernel available. This will allow additional upstream developers to examine this issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Thanks in advance.
