Fwd: [Bug 1063038] Re: Broadcom BCM57780 Cannot Connect at Gigabit Speed using tg3 module.
From: Justin Chudgar <hidden>

I've got a device with a Broadcom 57780 ethernet NIC. It uses the tg3.ko
driver module. The problem is that this NIC cannot connect at gigabit
(1000MBps) speed. In all cases connection works well at 100MBps. I
reported this to Ubuntu as noted below and was directed here.
[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1063038] Following
are the tests I've completed:
- Cables tested with cable tester
- Cables tested to work at gigabit speed with Realtek and Intel gigabit
NICs.
- All unmanaged switch ports tested at gigabit speed with other NICs.
- Tried to connect with NetworkManager enabled and disabled.
- Tried both dhcp and static connections.
- Tried to renegotiate connection with `ethtool -r` both with TSO
enabled and disabled.
- Tried 3.2.0-23-generic 3.5.0-15-generic3.5.0-17-generic
3.6.0-999-generic kernels from main, xorg-edgers and mainline repos.
- Used 'tg3_debug=1' kernel option in grub with the following output:

Other distros' forums suggest loading broadcom.ko first; however, this
module is no present. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

This issue appears to be an upstream bug, since you tested the latest
upstream kernel. Would it be possible for you to open an upstream bug
report[0]? That will allow the upstream Developers to examine the
issue, and may provide a quicker resolution to the bug.
Please follow the instructions on the wiki page[0]. The first step is
to email the appropriate mailing list. If no response is received, then
a bug may be opened on bugzilla.kernel.org.
