I ran three tests from power-up to loading the driver and the driver loaded successfully all three times. I then added if_cas_load=YES to /boot/loader.conf and did two more successful reboots from power-up. Great! Thanks a lot for testing! Will this driver work on FreeBSD 9.1? Yes, the patch should also solve the problem in 9.1. I suspect the hang you are seeing there isn't specific to cas(4) but rather a general regression that came in with the VIMAGE changes. Now, if a network device driver fails to attach during boot and tries to clean up by detaching and freeing the interface part at that stage again this causes problems. I already talked to bz@ about this and what I remember from his reply this is an ordering issue that is at least very hard to fix. OK. I've successfully upgraded from 8.3-Release to 9.1-Release. I stupidly powered-down the machine after the upgrade, so I had to remove the QGE card to get it to boot 9.1 and build a custom kernel. The patch applied cleanly, the kernel built without errors and boots from power-up without problems. I've attached the most recent messages file, dmesg, kldstat and ifconfig output if you're interested. The only odd thing I noticed was that cas0 and cas3 log messages: cannot disable RX MAC but cas1 and cas2 do not. I haven't actually tried any of the interfaces yet but I assume they'll work as expected. Let me know if there's anything further testing you'd like me to do. Thanks so much for your help with this, it is much appreciated.

The messages output from the working case is attached. Thanks but unfortunately this doesn't make any sense either. In general, printf()s cause deays which can be relevant. In the locations I've put them they hardly can make such a difference though. If you haven't already done so, could you please power off the machine before doing the test with the patched module? Is the problem still gone if you revert to the original module? OK, power-cycling makes a difference. The driver fails to attach all of the devices after power-cycling most of the time if not all of the time. The number of devices attached varies, the attached message file fragment is from my last test. Three of the devices were attached on the first load attempt and all four of them on the second attempt. In the interest of full disclosure, I did build a new kernel but it is just a copy of GENERIC.

Cas driver fails to load first time after boot.
Hi, I've got a Dell R200 which I'm trying to build into a gateway with a Sun QGE (501-6738-10). The cas driver fails to load the first time I try to load it but succeeds the second time. Is this a problem with the card, the driver, my karma? Initially, tried to install FreeBSD-9.1- Release but booting the installation DVD hangs after failing to attach cas0. I was able to successfully install FreeBSD-8.3-Release which apparently does not have the cas driver built into the installer kernel. The first time I try to load the cas module after booting results in the following output: # kldload -v if_cas Loaded if_cas, id=2 with the following logged to /var/log/messages: Jan 22 13:48:27 lucid kernel: cas0: NS DP83065 Saturn Gigabit Ethernet mem 0xdf80-0xdf9f irq 35 at device 0.0 on pci4 Jan 22 13:48:27 lucid kernel: cas0: attaching PHYs failed Jan 22 13:48:27 lucid kernel: cas0: could not be attached Jan 22 13:48:27 lucid kernel: device_attach: cas0 attach returned 6 Jan 22 13:48:27 lucid kernel: cas1: NS DP83065 Saturn Gigabit Ethernet mem 0xdfa0-0xdfbf irq 34 at device 1.0 on pci4 Jan 22 13:48:27 lucid kernel: cas1: attaching PHYs failed Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: cas1: could not be attached Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: device_attach: cas1 attach returned 6 Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: cas2: NS DP83065 Saturn Gigabit Ethernet mem 0xdfc0-0xdfdf irq 33 at device 2.0 on pci4 Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: miibus2: MII bus on cas2 Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: nsgphy0: DP83865 10/100/1000 media interface PHY 1 on miibus2 Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: nsgphy0: none, 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT, 1000baseT-master, 1000baseT-FDX, 1000baseT-FDX-master,auto, auto-flow Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: cas2: 16kB RX FIFO, 9kB TX FIFO Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: cas2: Ethernet address: 00:14:4f:25:ca:12 Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: cas2: [FILTER] Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: cas3: NS DP83065 Saturn Gigabit Ethernet mem 0xdfe0-0xdfff irq 32 at device 3.0 on pci4 Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: cas3: attaching PHYs failed Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: cas3: could not be attached Jan 22 13:48:28 lucid kernel: device_attach: cas3 attach returned 6 If I unload the cas driver, I get the following in /var/log/messages: Jan 22 14:03:42 lucid kernel: nsgphy0: detached Jan 22 14:03:42 lucid kernel: miibus2: detached Jan 22 14:03:42 lucid kernel: cas2: detached Jan 22 14:03:42 lucid kernel: pci4: network, ethernet at device 2.0 (no driver attached) The second time I try to load the cas kernel module after booting results in the following output: # kldload -v if_cas Loaded if_cas, id=2 and the following logged to /var/log/messages: Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas0: NS DP83065 Saturn Gigabit Ethernet mem 0xdf80-0xdf9f irq 35 at device 0.0 on pci4 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: miibus2: MII bus on cas0 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: nsgphy0: DP83865 10/100/1000 media interface PHY 1 on miibus2 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: nsgphy0: none, 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT, 1000baseT-master, 1000baseT-FDX, 1000baseT-FDX-master,auto, auto-flow Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas0: 16kB RX FIFO, 9kB TX FIFO Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas0: Ethernet address: 00:14:4f:25:ca:10 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas0: [FILTER] Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas1: NS DP83065 Saturn Gigabit Ethernet mem 0xdfa0-0xdfbf irq 34 at device 1.0 on pci4 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: miibus3: MII bus on cas1 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: nsgphy1: DP83865 10/100/1000 media interface PHY 1 on miibus3 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: nsgphy1: none, 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT, 1000baseT-master, 1000baseT-FDX, 1000baseT-FDX-master,auto, auto-flow Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas1: 16kB RX FIFO, 9kB TX FIFO Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas1: Ethernet address: 00:14:4f:25:ca:11 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas1: [FILTER] Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas2: NS DP83065 Saturn Gigabit Ethernet mem 0xdfc0-0xdfdf irq 33 at device 2.0 on pci4 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: miibus4: MII bus on cas2 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: nsgphy2: DP83865 10/100/1000 media interface PHY 1 on miibus4 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: nsgphy2: none, 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT, 1000baseT-master, 1000baseT-FDX, 1000baseT-FDX-master,auto, auto-flow Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas2: 16kB RX FIFO, 9kB TX FIFO Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas2: Ethernet address: 00:14:4f:25:ca:12 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas2: [FILTER] Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: cas3: NS DP83065 Saturn Gigabit Ethernet mem 0xdfe0-0xdfff irq 32 at device 3.0 on pci4 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: miibus5: MII bus on cas3 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: nsgphy3: DP83865 10/100/1000 media interface PHY 1 on miibus5 Jan 22 14:04:33 lucid kernel: nsgphy3: none, 10baseT,
