Packet loss on remote system after upgrade to core 170

I think I found a temporary work-around as long as the underlying bug has not been fixed:

I disabled IOMMU by changing line

    linux   /vmlinuz-5.15.59-ipfire root=UUID=e8cf0bb4-4816-451b-ab5b-9ae2881097f0 ro panic=10 rd.auto

to

    linux   /vmlinuz-5.15.59-ipfire root=UUID=e8cf0bb4-4816-451b-ab5b-9ae2881097f0 ro panic=10 rd.auto iommu=off

in /boot/grub/grub.cfg

and then rebooted the system.

This disables the IOMMU feature completely which seems to fix the bug. Downside is, that the system then only sees 3.73GB RAM, so this can not be a permanent fix, but at least a work-around until the root cause is found and fixed (hopefully).

Please try if it also works for you.

I switched to unstable yesterday, and got 171 update, issue resolved, no other issues detected. But this is just my home internet, take extra precautions if it is corporate network device.

I can confirm that the issue is resolved by switching to the unstable 171 version.

@chrisk1 I didnt tried your temporary fix so I cannot confirm that that the workaround works.

Hi all,

just for the records, the stable version of Core Update 171 has been released.

Thank you all for your contributions!
