Hi, since quite some time I see again and again the following issue: One of our machines shows random problems on the network - usually a few days after we installed it or did a kernel update. The issue can be quickly tracked down to the i40e driver included in Debian Kernel (1.6.16). Manually installing a newer driver from Intel always fixes the issue. We use version 1.6.42 of the i40e with Debian Stable (Stretch) and the 4.9.0-Kernel for a long time without any issues. Any chance to get a newer version of this driver into the standard Debian kernel? IMHO i40e 1.6.16 obviously broken.

IMHO i40e 1.6.16 obviously broken. Please run 'reportbug kernel' to open a bug report. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings [W]e found...that it wasn't as easy to get programs right as we had thought. ... I realized that a large part of my life from then on was going to be spent in finding mistakes in my own programs. - Maurice Wilkes, 1949
