Likely Cause of Intel e1000e Bug Discovered

Intel logoThis week, the Linux kernel and Intel developer teams announced they had discovered the probable cause of the e1000e bug. This bug was particularly destructive, as it would corrupt the EEPROM/NVM of some Intel ethernet adapter chipsets, completely disabling them. Though this issue was patched to prevent damage to these components prior to the 2.6.27 kernel's final release, the actual reason for the corruption was unclear.
