Hi
On further probing using 'truss' on the ifconfig command i found this
basic diff in the trace b/n the time it works and it does not
########## Trace when ifconfig does NOT work ######################
open("/dev/net/be2net0", O_RDWR) = 6
putmsg(6, 0x080475C0, 0x00000000, RS_HIPRI) = 0
pollsys(0x08043578, 1, 0x08043508, 0x00000000) = 1
getmsg(6, 0x08043580, 0x08045590, 0x08043574) = 0
ioctl(6, I_PUSH, "ip") = 0
ioctl(6, I_PUSH, "arp") = 0

ioctl(6, SIOCGLIFFLAGS, 0x080728A0) = 0
As can be seen ,the 2 last lines in bold are the ones that seem to differ
although from my ioctl entry point implementation pt of view both seem to come
and go and invalid IOCTLs , so im not really sure what is it that i am doing
wrong or anything i can do to make the above ioctl pass everytime?
Thanks

Subject: [driver-discuss] DL_BIND_REQ failed: DL_SYSERR (errno 6) only on OSOL
, NOT on S10
Hi All,
I have been facing this peculiar problem whenever i try to plumb my nic
driver using the 'ifconfig <driver inst no> plumb' command on opensolaris
2009.06 , however it invariably succeeds after a few attempts ,sometimes it
even succeeds on the 1st attempt,but at times it does take quite a few, I do
not understand why when the same driver with same source code works on Solaris
10 U7 and has even passed nearly the entire NICDRV test suite( one test is
currently running)
This failure is impacting our ability to run the same test suite for the
driver on OpenSolaris
Dumping snippet of the 'dmesg.log ' below , attach succeeds for both the
interfaces,so i do not get why does it complain of 'no such device or address'
, it definitely seems like some timing problem, could somebody pls enlighten me
more about what's going on ?
