    Subject[BUG] igb: reconnecting of cable not always detected
    Date
    Hi all,

    I'm on kernel 4.16.4 and have an issue with eth0, driver is igb. When I
    remove the ethernet cable, this is always detected:

    [ 2.772360] igb: Intel(R) Gigabit Ethernet Network Driver - version 5.4.0-k
    [ 2.772363] igb: Copyright (c) 2007-2014 Intel Corporation.
    [ 3.023707] igb 0000:02:00.0: added PHC on eth0
    [ 3.023710] igb 0000:02:00.0: Intel(R) Gigabit Ethernet Network Connection
    [ 3.023713] igb 0000:02:00.0: eth0: (PCIe:2.5Gb/s:Width x1) 00:13:95:1a:54:33
    [ 3.023758] igb 0000:02:00.0: eth0: PBA No: 000300-000

    [ 7.984921] igb 0000:02:00.0 eth0: igb: eth0 NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: RX/TX
    [ 11.184593] igb 0000:02:00.0 eth0: igb: eth0 NIC Link is Down

    Sometimes, plugging the cable back in is detected ...

    [ 43.736922] igb 0000:02:00.0 eth0: igb: eth0 NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: RX/TX

    ... but sometimes this is *NOT* detected. I can put the cable in and
    even after two minutes nothing has been detected.

    But when I run "rmmod igb" followed by "modpobe igb", the link is
    detected again:

    (In above dmesg snippet the ethernet cable was the whole time inserted).


    Any tips on how I can debug this further?

    PS: I already tried a different switch and also a direct connection from
    device-to-device, without a switch.
