[PATCH 068/173] r8169: disable ASPM

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Mon Apr 25 2011 - 16:52:48 EST


2.6.27.59-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit ba04c7c93bbcb48ce880cf75b6e9dffcd79d4c7b upstream.

For some time is known that ASPM is causing troubles on r8169, i.e. make
device randomly stop working without any errors in dmesg.

Currently Tomi Leppikangas reports that system with r8169 device hangs
with MCE errors when ASPM is enabled:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642861#c4

Lets disable ASPM for r8169 devices at all, to avoid problems with
r8169 PCIe devices at least for some users.
