Re: Kernel v3.0.8 igb driver dies when pulling network cable

[Alexander Duyck]

Stefan,

You are going to need to clarify some things since as far as I know we
never released a v3.0.8 driver, and the kernel in the bug below is a
version 2.6.40.8 which sounds more like a modified and possibly
backported Linux kernel since as far as I know Linus never released a
2.6.40 kernel version.

In order to be able to assist you we will need some additional
information.  What Linux distro are your running?  Do you have the
latest updates from them?  Also have you tried running the latest
out-of-tree driver we provide at e1000.sf.net in order to verify if the
same issue occurs with that driver?

Thanks,

Alex
