Comment 44 for bug 1749961

Hi John and all, thanks for updating logs and enhancing the report! Due to a lot of other work, and the nature of this problem (being a FW issue that we'd try to alleviate using a hack in linux), I wasn't able to work the tentative hack approach yet.

The issue was "resolved" through a FW update by ASMedia, but this was only worked with a specific motherboard vendor, not as a general release. This is the problem with FW fixes...they are quite scattered and vendor-depending. So, can you John or any of the reporters try to reproduce the problem with:

(a) Ubuntu 20.04, just released?
(b) Ubuntu 18.04 running the current HWE kernel (5.3)?

That'd be good data points. Also, if you could try Ubuntu 20.04 with latest mainline kernel (from [0]), that would be a gigantic help!
Thanks in advance,

Guilherme
