Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5751M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express and FreeBSD 4.10
has anyone got the above gigabit ethernet working with freebsd 4.10 ? patching sys/dev/bge/if_bge.c and sys/dev/bge/if_bgereg.h with the device and vendor IDs in the proper places doesnt seem to work, though the entries exist in the same files in the 4.11 sources. a mailing list search shows it working fine on the ibm t43 notebooks but on freebsd 5.4 instead. however, as mentioned above, RELENG_4 sources contain the device id for the BCM5751M, so i'd assume it'd work there too. there seems to be no special handling of this device in the code, so getting it to work on 4.10 (as opposed to 4.11R) would be as simple as adding in the same device ids. or so i thought. pciconf -l -v yields [EMAIL PROTECTED]:0:0: class=0x02 card=0x0944103c chip=0x167d14e4 rev=0x11 hdr=0x0 vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation' class = network subclass = ethernet and a kldload if_bge returns (after patching in device id): bge0: mem 0xc800-0xc800 irq 10 at device 0.0 on pci16 bge0: firmware handshake timed out bge0: RX CPU self-diagnostics failed! bge0: chip initialization failed device_probe_and_attach: bge0 returned 6 the notebook is a HP nc6230. -- Regards, /\_/\ "All dogs go to heaven."

It then starts i've seen this happen on an Asus 1400R 1U rackmount server, P3 1Ghz, dual intel etherexpress pro (fxp devices), 4GB RAM. thru trial and error i tracked it down to apm causing it. disabling apm has not shown a recurrence of the hang. however in my case, when it hung, everything froze except the box still responded to pings. telnet, ssh or any other network service wasnt responding however, just icmp.
