Issue
I see the following kernel message in system logs:
linux-kernel-bde 0000:01:00.0: vpd r/w failed. This is likely a firmware bug on this device. Contact the card vendor for a firmware update.
Environment
- Cumulus Linux, all versions
Resolution
This message can be ignored.
Root Cause
This message is triggered by a harmless PCI non-conformity in the ASIC. It can be produced by running lspci -vv
on the command line. lspci
is also run by cl-support, which is a common trigger for this message.
