This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- focal' to 'verification-done-focal'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-focal' to 'verification-failed-focal'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

The same works fine with HWE kernel (5.11). Here, we do not see any crash. [FIXES] ice: Fix bad register reads The "ethtool -d" handler reads registers in the ice_regs_dump_list array and returns read values back to the userspace. commitID: 1fba4a8a92706c89716449b1aab1b6879f438d34 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net- next.git/commit/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice?id=1fba4a8a92706c89716449b1aab1b6879f438d34 [TESTING] Install Focal on a system with an E810 network device. Ensure the network device has an IP address and has connectivity Run ethtool -d <interface_name> Expected result: Prints a register dump for the specified network device [REGRESSION RISK] The regression risk is low [OTHER INFO] I have added the fix, built the kernel and tested the fix. https://code.launchpad.net/~mreed8855/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/focal/+ref/e810_ethtool_fix_next To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dellserver/+bug/1939855/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
