[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1482304] Re: Upgrade i40e and i40evf driver to latest
I switched to linux-image-generic-lts-wily (4.2.0-23-generic) kernel. Everything seems to work for the moment, but now the driver complains about the firmware beeing to new: i40e: Intel(R) Ethernet Connection XL710 Network Driver - version 1.3.4-k i40e: Copyright (c) 2013 - 2014 Intel Corporation. i40e :41:00.0: f4.40.35115 a1.4 n4.53 e1dc1 i40e :41:00.0: The driver for the device detected a newer version of the NVM image than expected.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1482304] Re: Upgrade i40e and i40evf driver to latest
I have a Supermicro AOC-STG-i4S quad port card (ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/Networking_Drivers/CDR-NIC_1.41_for_Add- on_NIC_Cards/MANUALS/datasheet-AOC-STG-i4S.pdf) which is also based on the Intel XL710 chip. With the standard Trusty 3.13 kernel and the included i40e module version 0.3.36-k the card doesn't work at all. Interfaces are not created because of some firmware API mismatch. With the LTS Vivid 3.19 kernel and the included i40e module version 1.2.2-k the card is detected, the interfaces are created, but bonding doesn't work properly. Seem to be this bug: http://sourceforge.net/p/e1000/bugs/475/ . I had to manually install the driver version 1.3.39.1. Bonding works now. But the driver complains about the 'NVM image' (part of firmware) being too old. So I had to update the firmware as well. A recent driver in the backported LTS kernels would be very important for many users, as the existing older versions don't seem to be matured enough. -- 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/1482304 Title: Upgrade i40e and i40evf driver to latest Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: It appears that the latest i40e driver in Trusty is 0.3.36-k.
