Bug#1067908: Acknowledgement (Enable I6300ESB_WDT)

2024-03-28 Thread Andrew Jorgensen
I misspoke - a different watchdog will be provided for arm, so this
request is for amd64 only.

Bug#1067908: Enable I6300ESB_WDT

2024-03-28 Thread Andrew Jorgensen
Package: linux-image-cloud-amd64
Version: 6.1.76-1
Severity: wishlist

GCE will introduce a virtual watchdog timer device, implemented to
appear as an Intel 6300ESB. The team implementing the device reports
that the driver is not available on Debian. It looks like it's been in
the kernel for ~19 years, so it should be a matter of setting
CONFIG_I6300ESB_WDT=m (and any dependencies).

If it's possible to get this into Debian 11 as well, that would be
good. Cloud kernels only would be sufficient. arm64 as well.



Bug#1060280: linux-image-4.19.0-25-cloud-amd64: PCI ATS quirk patch needed for IDPF

2024-01-08 Thread Andrew Jorgensen
Package: src:linux
Version: 4.19.289-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Intel has introduced a new network card. They have submitted the driver
to the upstream kernel. We don't know if it's reasonable to ask that
this driver be backported to Debian, or to older versions of Debian, but
in order to use an out-of-tree driver on older versions, a PCI ATS
quirks patch is needed for some early versions of the hardware. Thus
we're asking if it's possible to backport that quirks patch to older
versions of Debian, so that users can use the out-of-tree driver.

The patch was released in Linux 6.7:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?h=v6.7=a18615b1cfc04f00548c60eb9a77e0ce56e848fd

It's been backported to 5.15 in the LTS kernels, but customers may need
it in older kernels for Debian.

Bug#996356: Confirmed at Google

2023-10-31 Thread Andrew Jorgensen
We believe we've also observed this bug at Google on Debian 11. We
confirmed that packets are received by the kernel, but dhclient
doesn't catch them. The root cause appears to be a race condition, and
we provided some details in
https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/dhcp/-/issues/264 to ISC, but we
understand dhclient is being deprecated.

The bug was also reported to Ubuntu at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/isc-dhcp/+bug/1926139 and
there's a detailed discussion of the bug, reproduction cases, and
proposed fixes, the last of which was accepted into Ubuntu Jammy.

We built a test package with Ubuntu's fix applied to Debian 11 and
confirmed over the weekend (more than 100k runs) that it resolves the
issue.

Because of some risk that the fix could cause issues elsewhere, the
patch included an option to revert the change at runtime. I haven't
found evidence of anyone needing to use that option.

Oddly we also find that Debian 12 does not have this issue, even
though the later version of dhclient does not include any fix for
this. There must be some other reason why the race condition is not
hit there.
