[21:22] <eddyTV> Hi. Is there a way to force the link state of a network interface "UP" when the NIC driver is loaded? When the kernel (5.0.0-36-generic) loads the e1000e driver on boot, link is NOT established. This is preventing NFS root booting from working.
[21:23] <eddyTV> I can easily reproduce this by doing `rmmod e1000e` and then `modprobe e1000e`. No link LEDs on the PHY. But if I issue `ip link set eno1 up`, about 3 seconds later I get actual connectivity and LEDs come on...
[22:51] <sarnold> eddyTV: in wild-guess territory, what's loading the module for you? /etc/modules in initramfs? or a udev rule? whatever is doing the load could probably also be configured to do the ip link set up command
