Tom, had this posted in 5.0rc forum & was instructed to post over here...
Alright, quick question for the guru's. I'm doing a new build with old server grade equipment. The build is an old HP Proliant DL380 G5. The onboard network is a dual port broadcom netxtreme.
Here's the issue, the network works fine under build 4.7 but will not issue an IP under either 5.12 or 5.13. I have tried ifconfig for both eth0 & eth1, disabling both ports individually in the BIOS, disabling usb 2.0.
I'm attaching syslogs for all three builds.
Thanks in advance
Jason
Here is it loading the driver:
Code: [select]
Jun 4 15:22:43 Tower kernel: bnx2: Broadcom NetXtreme II Gigabit Ethernet Driver bnx2 v2.2.3 (June 27, 2012)
And here'a where the problem occurs:
Code: [select]

Looks like a kernel issue based on this: www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg219373.html
Post this in the RC-13 thread so Tom sees it and maybe he can look into it further.
