           Summary: wake on lan fails with sky2 module
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: 2.6.24-rc7
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Power-Sleep-Wake
        AssignedTo: acpi_power-sleep-wake@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: supersud501@yahoo.de
This post-2.6.23 regression was assigned to ACPI but is quite possibly a
net driver problem?
Latest working kernel version: 2.6.23.12
Earliest failing kernel version: 2.6.24-rc6 (not tested earlier kernel,
2.6.24-rc7 still failing)
Distribution: Ubuntu 8.04 (but Kernel build from Kernel.org and system modifiet
to make wake on lan work, i.e. network cards are not shutted down on poweroff)
Hardware Environment: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8053 PCI-E Gigabit
Ethernet Controller (rev 20) onboard Asus P5W DH motherboard, uses module SKY2
Software Environment:
Problem Description:

When enabling wake on lan with: 'ethtool -s eth0 wol' i get the following
status:

21:56:29 ~ # sudo ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
        Supported ports: [ TP ]
        Supported link modes:   10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 
                                100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 
                                1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full 
        Supports auto-negotiation: Yes
        Advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 
                                100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 
                                1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full 
        Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
        Speed: 100Mb/s
        Duplex: Full
        Port: Twisted Pair
        PHYAD: 0
        Transceiver: internal
        Auto-negotiation: on
        Supports Wake-on: pg
        Wake-on: g    <---- wol enabled
        Current message level: 0x000000ff (255)
        Link detected: yes

but after shutting down the pc doesn't wake up when magic packet is sent.

the status lights of the network card are still on (so the card seems to be
online).

same system with only changed kernel to 2.6.23.12 and same procedure like
above: wake on lan works.

Steps to reproduce: enable wol on your network card using SKY2 module and it
doesn't work too?

if you need more information, just tell me, it's my first bug report.
regards
