This appears to still be an issue on the latest 5.4.0-99-generic kernel. I'm using a 2 port 10GSFP+ card. The PCI driver isn't bound according to lspci, and the interfaces don't show up in dmesg or "ip link". # lspci -nnk 31:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection X722 [8086:37cc] (rev 09) DeviceName: 10Gb Ethernet1 Subsystem: Lenovo Ethernet Connection X722 [17aa:4021] # modinfo i40e ... version: 2.8.20-k description: Intel(R) Ethernet Connection XL710 Network Driver ... vermagic: 5.4.0-99-generic SMP mod_unload modversions Strangely the ports don't even come up with the latest 5.13.0-28 kernel. # modinfo i40e (no version) vermagic: 5.13.0-28-generic SMP mod_unload modversions The card works perfectly in another distribution with the i40e driver, but that's running a 4.18 kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1887703 Title: [Regression] 5.4 is not identifying all ports on Intel x710-TM4 10GbE controller Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Focal: Confirmed Bug description: [IMPACT] The Intel x710-TM4 is one of the latest 10GbE controllers from intel using the i40e driver. This particular 4 port comes in a 2x2 arrangement: 2x SFP+ and 2x RJ-45. This card is enabled in 5.4 via the inbox version of the i40e driver, and hwinfo does show both sides of the card but the kernel only sees the two SFP+ ports and cannot address or use the two copper ports. This is currently blocking certification for one of our hardware partners. After some investigation we see this works in a more recent version of the driver. Intel suggests the commit in FIXES from 5.5 should make this work. This is a regression from the i40e driver in Bionic (5.3 HWE) that, per the tester, does show all four ports.
