Is this EFI BIOS? I experience a similar issue on a Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 
(rev 1.0) motherboard which has a RTL8168E network card (lspci reports the 
wrong name for vendor:device 10ec:8168 rev 06).

I contacted Gigabyte using http://ggts.gigabyte.com/, but they have asked me 
to try to reproduce this on Windows. I do not have such an installation laying 
around for this machine, so that will be slightly more difficult to test. My 
request for BIOS source code was also denied due to "the rule of firma".

What I have tried:
- Clear the PM_Status bit to stop asserting a wake-up:

  sudo setpci -v -s 06:00.0 CAP_PM+5.B=80
- Disabling wake-on-lan with `sudo ethtool -s eth0 wol d`. On the Ubuntu 
3.5.0-34-generic kernel, the flag gets set to "d", but on resume it becomes the 
default "g" again. IIRC, on Arch Linux with Linux 3.9.6-1, WOL stays disabled, 
but then enabling it again did not work (MagicPacket did not trigger a wake-
up).

NOTE: as you experienced, a machine woken with WOL will restart on shutdown. I 
experience the same behavior with suspend. That is, if a machine was woken 
with WOL, after suspend it takes a few seconds before it decides to resume 
again without any interaction.

NOTE2: WOL worked fine on older non-EFI AWARD BIOS versions, F12 and older. The 
EFI BIOSes version U1h and U1l both have this WOL issue. Downgrading to AWARD 
BIOS resolves the problem (but then I miss certain newer features).

Can you reproduce this WOL issue on other non-Linux OSes? (where WOL is 
functioning of course) Please mention BIOS version as well.

Regards,
Peter

 PS. let me know if you need Realtek datasheets.

Hi Freddie


Sorry for the late reply! I'm not subscribed to debian-user and so didn't 
see this email until now. I really should remember to check the list after 
I post. Whoops!




I can't say I have done what you are trying to do, I have only done it 
with desktops. Anyway, to me, how you describe it, your laptop doesn't 
fully start/boot. I don't want to offend you (in case you have checked 
already) but I'd check the manufacturer's website for this symptom, and 
eventually check for (BIOS) firmware upgrades and their changelogs.


I think you're correct - the laptop doesn't seem to start properly. You 
don't offend at all, but I had looked for a newer BIOS than the one I 
have. Unfortunately I can't seem to find anything for this laptop - it is 
gettin on a bit now!


Thanks for you suggestion. I'll keep looking for a BIOS update.

Any other ideas?



Good luck!

Also, the problem must be related to WOL somehow, because it restarts only
if it was turned on by WOL. If I turn it on by the power button, it shuts
down normally.

If I had the same problem, I would check that the correct profile
(environment variables, rights, such kind of things) related to poweroff
is loaded, since I think ssh does not provide all environment variables to

I think your problem is not related to the wake on lan, since you

Your problem here is to shutdown, and not reboot.

Hello,

I have an ASUS P8Z77-M motherboard with an onboard RTL8111/8168B network
card. I want to enable wake on lan for this card. Wake on lan itself is

wakeonlan 

from another machine, but when I shutdown the computer, the system powers

magic packets. The effective result is therefore a reboot and not the

I wonder if anyone had the same problem?

I am running Wheezy. The problem occours with kernels 3.2, 3.7 (from
experimental) and vanilla 3.8-rc6, both with the native r8169 and Realtek
provided r8168. I also tried to call

ethtool -s eth0 wol g

and / or


pci-config -B 3 -# 1 -S

ethtool -s eth0 wol mg
ethtool -s eth0 wol bg

Hi all,

Finally Janek pointed me in the right direction: nictools-pci package
and the pci-config command

I tried the pre-down directive in the /etc/network/interfaces and it
worked ok but the second or third time I rebooted my PC it got frozen
so I started to search the internet and I found a web [1]  explaining
how to use the pci-config

I've make it work using the following procedure:

lspci -nn |grep -i Ether

02:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller [10ec:8168] (rev
01)
^^ The 2 digit at the beginning of the line means the pci bus (As
explained by Janek)
 ^  ^ this is the vendor:model number


Then:

pci-config -B 2
pci-config.c:v2.05 2/23/2005 Donald Becker (bec...@scyld.com)
 http://www.scyld.com/diag/index.html
Device #1 at bus 2 device/function 0/0, 816810ec.
 ^-^  this
is tne model:vendor number the same as before BUT in different order

Now I know the BUS number (2) and device number (#1)

So I can use the pci-config to put the NIC in the proper state for WOL:

pci-config -B 2 -# 1 -S

Instead of using the pre-down directive in the /etc/network/interfaces
I choose the /etc/init.d/halt script as written in [1] and added the
following lines just before "halt -d -f $netdown $poweroff $hddown"

[...]
### http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2012/01/msg00182.html
### http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-951563.html

pci-config -B 2 -# 1 -S
sleep 0.5

log_action_msg "Will now halt"
halt -d -f $netdown $poweroff $hddown
[...]

I have restarted my PC at least 10 times and it works without problem.

Okay, so the fact your system powers off the ethernet adapter "randomly" 
is the key of the problem. This should not happen.

As the network interface comes integrated within the motherboard, I would 
look for a BIOS update and check if it solves someting related to power 
management or WOL (hint: most of the manufacturers do not write down the 
full BIOS release changelogs unless you directly contact them, so it's a 
good idea to ask the motherboard's manufacturer directly and query about 
this).

A bad PSU, "too smart" UPS unit (or a power surge strip) can be also 
making noise here...

RTL8111/8168B wake on lan (WOL) working randomly

2012-01-01 Thread Juan Sierra Pons
Dear all,

I have been spending many  days trying to make my computer start using

Kernel driver in use: r8168

I have found on many mailing lists, forums that it is necessary the
r8168 module to make it works as by default Debian wheezy uses the
r8169 so I have installed the newest r8168 module from
http://code.google.com/p/r8168/

For example:
http://djlab.com/2010/10/fixing-rtl8111-8168b-driver-debian-ubuntu/comment-page-1/

The problem is that when I shutdown the computer the NIC is switched
off too. I can see it as the port in my home ADSL router is switched
off. BUT randomly I can see that the NIC is not switched off after a
shutdown and if I send the WOL packet from another computer it works
like a charm.

I have already checked the following:

* My computer uses the right module as i have blacklisted the r8169:

more /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-network.conf
blacklist r8169

* I am using the last module version:

ethtool -i eth0
driver: r8168
version: 8.027.00-NAPI
firmware-version:
bus-info: :02:00.0
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: no
supports-eeprom-access: yes
supports-register-dump: yes

I can not see any pattern as it works around 10-20% of the times I
shutdown the computer locally, remotely or from the poweroff button.

Hi,

Does Linux support wake on lan?

As others have said, it is supported as long as your hardware supports WOL.

I use it on some of my systems, using wakeonlan.

For some hardware, I found that the "Wake On MagicPacket™" flag got 
cleared when the interface was enabled during booting, so WOL would work 
the first time a machine is powered on in standby, but wouldn't work 
after a shutdown.


I solved this by putting a post-up line in /etc/network/interfaces to 
reset the flag after the interface is enabled:


iface eth0 inet dhcp
post-up /sbin/ethtool -s eth0 wol g

(that's assuming you don't use NM)

Yes - in the Debian repositories there's:-
etherwake - A little tool to send magic Wake-on-LAN packets
gwakeonlan - wakes up your machines using Wake on LAN
wakeonlan - Sends 'magic packets' to wake-on-LAN enabled ethernet adapters


I've only used the last package - it works very nicely. eg:-
wakeonlan -i 192.168.0.255 00:60:b0:a4:22:f6

NOTE: some boxes require the -i broadcast address option eg. Thinkpads,
other don't.

Most modern laptops/mbs with built-in NICs support it, though it
generally requires enabling in the BIOS.
Many older mbs support it if you have the 3-wire cable and enable the
BIOS setting.

If anyone knows the pinouts for the 10-wire WOL cables that come with
the AMD-PCNet NICs I'd appreciate knowing the 3 used for WOL (5V+, Gnd,
WOL).


Cheers

Wake on lan is not OS dependant, it is hardware dependant. See:

It's OK, I just thought it was more suitable to set wol for the card on 
network stop, not start.
But I was perhaps wrong about the post-down, perhaps a bit too late.
If it work at start, let's go. Personnaly, I prefer to add a "up" line in 
my /etc/network/interfaces instead of create a script 
in /etc/network/if-up.d. That Way I know wich interface is up.

It turned out to be 3d hit in google "linux wake on lan". While it's
gentoo wiki, hardware<->kernel thing is the same: there's nothing
interesting in bios?kernel?acpi?userspace dance.

Anyway beware of acpi reboot/poweroff problems and how they are awkward.

Try to add this line in your /etc/network/interfaces :
  post-down ethtool -s eth0 wol g

It tells your nic to prepare to be woken up, so perhaps it will not power off.

Install ethtool if you don't have it.

So, ACPI/BIOS whatever thinks that it knows better than somebody else.
OTHO, maybe it's another set of bugs in that brain damaged interface,

Try to get rid of acpi: any acpi-related kernel modules
(/lib/linux/kernel/drivers/acpi/*) or try kernel parameters (e.g. acpi=off).

Getting wake-on-lan to work in Etch

2007-07-24 Thread Raj Kiran Grandhi

Hi,

I am trying to get "wake on lan" to work in Etch. I have a motherboard
with an onboard NIC which supports wake-on-lan. I have enabled
wake-on-lan in the bios. When I poweroff the computer during POST, I am
able to remotely wake it, but if I shut it down from Etch, power to the
NIC is also being turned off and wake-on-lan does not work. I have
edited '/etc/init.d/halt' and removed the '-i' option from the 'halt'
command, but the NIC is still being powered down.

If I boot into single user mode (init 1) and call poweroff from there,
the NIC is kept alive after the computer is powered down. Another thing
I have noticed is that when I issue the 'poweroff' from runlevel 2, the
console displays the message "acpi_poweroff called" just before
powerdown and the NIC is also powered off. This message does not appear
when issuing poweroff from runlevel 1.

How can I configure the system to keep the NIC alive after shutting down
from runlevel 2?

It says the same for e1000 and that also only works with Intel's newer

Nope, still no luck.

On the bright side: I tried out some older kernels to see if it was a 
kernel update that triggered the faulty behavior. I tried 2.6.16, 2.6.12 
and 2.6.8; 2.6.8 works as it should. So I'm simply going to use that one

I'll see if I can add anything useful to the bug report, once

driver is e100 since that's the only network driver related module I see 
in lsmod) and it says that it should work with ethtool. But it doesn't.


It says the same for e1000 and that also only works with Intel's newer 
driver. Give it a try, chances are it will work.

I had the same problem, as do many others according to Google.

1) Check if WoL is on using

# ethtool eth0

There should be a 'g' in the Wake-On: line. If there is not you'll have 
to run


It's there:

Supports Wake-on: g
Wake-on: g

2) The problem in my case was that the driver turned off the NIC 
completely during shutdown, so it lost its link to the switch (check the 
LEDs) and the ability to wake up.


The LEDs (a green one and an orange one FWIW) are lighted when the box 
is powered down.


I also checked Documentation/networking/e100.txt (I presume the card's 
driver is e100 since that's the only network driver related module I see 
in lsmod) and it says that it should work with ethtool. But it doesn't.


I must be missing something; I'll search further tonight when I get 
home; I'm not going to mess around with it right now since I'm not home 
to power it back up manually.


I filed a bug on WoL not working, please add your experience there - 
maybe someone in the kernel team will look at it if more people complain :)


http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=368399


I'm not sure it is a kernel bug yet, but I will my experience once I 
have a better view of the problem and hopefully the solution.

1) Check if WoL is on using

# ethtool eth0

There should be a 'g' in the Wake-On: line. If there is not you'll have

every time you reboot the machine. If this does not work ...

In my case (an Intel Desktop Gigabit NIC with the e1000 driver) 
compiling the newer GPL driver from the Intel web site out-of-tree 
worked nicely. (You just need the headers or full source of your kernel 
accessible as /usr/src/linux)


Remember to update the initrd, if you use one, otherwise the old driver 
will be loaded on boot. (Check dmesg)

That's what I thought, but I've tried multiple times so I'm absolutely

To wake up the machine has to be an atx form, and be powered on, as
you can figure by the lighting ethernet led, in the box´s rear.

If you put in another NIC, then you have to connect it to the wol header
on your motherboard, with a small plug. I take it you have done so?
If so, then perhaps a BIOS upgrade will help (doubtfull).

  If you open lilo.conf on the box that will not go to
sleep you will see a line in there called append=""
make it look like this append="apm=on" and then in the
terminal type lilo and that will make the change take
effect.  The wake on lan pc will then shut down after
you tell it to.
I hope that this is what you rlooking for.

allright. shutdown -h waits for you to push the reset button or turn off
and back on the power. But very likely you are using an atx board.
Well I heard that to use the full functionality of the ATX board, ( turn
off autmatically) you must configure lilo ( lilo.conf). I also think you
must enable some feature in the kernel to do that. 
These are only assumptions but I hope it is of some use.

Disclaimer: I never used wake-on-lan, but I can make a few educated
guesses about how it might work. YMMV.

To get the machine to suspend, you should only need to install the APM
package, and boot the kernel with `apm=on'. The BIOS will alert the
machine when something happens on the network.

Next step: getting the client machines to awaken the firewall. You
probably need to set up an ARP entry for the firewall. (See man arp for
more info.) Hopefully, this is enough to get the server out of sleep
mode.

If you have a dynamically assigned IP address on the external network,
you might need to restart the DHCP client (and reinstall firewall
rules) on APM resume.

1. Get the right combination of hardware. You need a NIC that can do it,
   a motherboard/power-supply that can do it, and a wire from a couple of pins
   on the NIC to a couple of pins on the motherboard.
2. Get a driver that supports it.
3. Enable WoL support in the driver
4. Shut down the machine softly enough
5. Get a program that can send the magic ethernet frames to trigger WoL

In my case, the things are
1. 3Com 3c905C Tornado
2. standard 3c59x.o
3. options 3c59x enable_wol=1
4. APM enabled, so 'shutdown -h now' shuts down properly
5. etherwake.c by Donald Becker

'etherwake' needs to be run explicitly, as root - thus, I only answered part
of your question. I imagine doing WoL automagically would be difficult.
Still, WoL is a nifty thing, even if you have to do it manually.

I haven't done this myself, but you might want to look at the APM support in 
the Linux kernel. I think there is either a power howto or an APM howto. I 
remember reading about this when I was researching ways to enable suspend on 
my laptop. I think it's doable.

Wake on LAN question

2001-07-30 Thread Robert Kerr
Hi all,
I am setting up a machine to do firewalling/IP masquerading.  I'd like to
be able to leave this machine on all the time, but perhaps in a
powered-down mode, so it's not using as much electricity, and not so noisy
at night.  I envision it in standby or suspend mode, but waking up
whenever someone on my internal LAN wants to access the internet.
1)  Is this possible?
2)  What would be the steps to go about setting linux up for wake-on-lan
access?

thanks
