Not that it's at all relevant to the question here, but...

It does mostly work without em in the 12 kernel - I'm not sure how, but it does.

I upgraded to 12-stable via source but didn't add em to my custom kernel. Most things worked - basic network functionality. But I had problems with ipfw and igb. Adding em to the kernel fixed them.

Something odd going on there there - I am using 12-STABLE and I have igb just fine, and it attaches to the same hardware that 11 did:

It does work in 12, throughput is great, just that the latency is higher than 11.

Do you have a custom kernel, and if so did you see this note in UPDATING?

Yes I do, but it includes all of GENERIC which includes em drivers, otherwise it wouldn't even work with the network card.

my custom kernel:

include GENERIC
ident   CUSTOM
makeoptions WITH_EXTRA_TCP_STACKS=1
options TCPHPTS
options SC_KERNEL_CONS_ATTR=(FG_GREEN|BG_BLACK)
options IPSTEALTH
options       AHC_REG_PRETTY_PRINT  # Print register bitfields in debug
options       AHD_REG_PRETTY_PRINT  # Print register bitfields in debug
device cryptodev
device aesni

I did try without RACK just in case that was the culprit.
