[PVE-User] 6.5.13-3-pve kernel panic on shutdown

Hi Gilberto

Thank you for the general guidelines on dealing with APEI Generic Hardware Errors

1. Identify the Error Source:
The APEI error message clearly identifies the source as the second port of the BCM5720 LOM (onboard NIC).
[84463.685123] {1}[Hardware Error]:   device_id: 0000:04:00.1
root at pve:~# ethtool -i eno2 | egrep '^(driver|version|bus)'
driver: tg3
version: 6.5.13-3-pve
bus-info: 0000:04:00.1

2. Update System Firmware:
The system firmware (provided by Dell support) is up to date.
BIOS: 2.21.1 <https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=hkpg0>
BCM 5720 firmware: 22.71.3 <https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=4jjw6>
iDRAC: 7.00.00.171

3. Kernel Parameter Tuning:
"the apei=off kernel parameter can be used to disable APEI error handling altogether, although this is not recommended as it may compromise system stability."
I’d rather not do that. The system is stable, apart from the kernel panic during reboot (which does not affect operation).

4. Hardware Diagnostics:
Hardware diagnostcs didn’t return any errors.

7. Kernel and Module Updates:
The system is running the latest stable PVE kernel (6.5.13-3-pve) and tg3 kernel module.

Please let me know if you have any further suggestions directly related to this specific issue (see [1][2][3][4][5] and [6]).

Thank you

Best regards

Stefan
