 Posted: Fri Aug 15, 2014 12:29 pm Post subject: [Solved] WOL: interface doesn't store it's state |
 |
|
Trying to get Wake On LAN working.
'PME Events Wake Up' option in BIOS enabled.
| Code: | lspci -k
00:07.0 Bridge: NVIDIA Corporation MCP61 Ethernet (rev a2)
Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device e000
Kernel driver in use: forcedeth
Kernel modules: forcedeth |
Ethernet adaptor supports Wak-On LAN functionality:
| Code: | server ~ # ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
Supported ports: [ MII ]
Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
Supported pause frame use: No
Supports auto-negotiation: Yes
Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
Advertised pause frame use: No
Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
Speed: 100Mb/s
Duplex: Full
Port: MII
PHYAD: 1
Transceiver: external
Auto-negotiation: on
Supports Wake-on: g
Wake-on: d
Link detected: yes |
By default Wake-On is disabled ('d'), but I can enable it with
| Code: | | ethtool -s eth0 wol g |
this command switches Wake-On to 'g', that stands for 'enabled'. As confirmation:
| Code: | server ~ # cat /proc/acpi/wakeup
Device S-state Status Sysfs node
HUB0 S5 *disabled pci:0000:00:04.0
XVR0 S5 *disabled pci:0000:00:09.0
XVR1 S5 *disabled
XVR2 S5 *disabled
UAR1 S5 *disabled pnp:00:07
USB0 S3 *enabled pci:0000:00:02.0
USB2 S3 *enabled pci:0000:00:02.1
AZAD S5 *disabled
MMAC S5 *enabled pci:0000:00:07.0 |
The last string corresponds to Ethernet adaptor.
To get adaptor always on, I put 'ethtool -s eth0 wol g' command into /etc/conf.d/local.start and /etc/conf.d/local.stop
But after reboot adaptor switches back to default 'disabled Wake-on' state.
How do I get Wake-on enabled permanently?

Did you enabled WOL in your BIOS ? I think, if it's disabled here, this feature will be disabled what ever what you did with ethtool?

It's only needed in one of those script. No arm to do it twice, just useless  |

Yes, its enabled in BIOS: PME Event Wake Up option is set to 'Enabled'.
| Quote: | In the BIOS Power Management, you must enable the LAN Wakeup option.
The option can also be named like: Wake On LAN, MAC Resume From S3/S4, MACPME Power Up Control, Power On By Onboard LAN, Power Up By Onboard LAN, Power On By PCI Devices, Resume on PCI Event, Resume by LAN, Resume By WOL, Resume on LAN, Resume on LAN/PME#, Wake on LAN from S5, Wake Up On LAN, WakeUp by Onboard LAN, WOL (PME#) From Soft-Off, PME Events Wake Up, Resume by PME# Function, Resume On PME#, Wake On PME, Wake Up On PME. |

/etc/conf.d/local.start and /etc/conf.d/local.stop are not the good path to execute a script at boot and shutdown times, /etc/local.d/local.start and /etc/local.d/local.stop will be if the scripts are executables.

Yeah, really, it should be under local.d. It solved a problem. Now WOL works fine!
Many thanks! |
