Hi.

Recently I've upgrade two of my FreeBSD servers from 8.x (8.2-STABLE and 
8.3-PRERELEASE). On one server, running with

hw.bge.allow_asf: 1
dev.bge.0.msi: 1

I got a bunch of

# dmesg -a | grep watch
Starting watchdogd.
bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting
bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting
bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting
bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting

This server has the following chip:

bge0 at pci0:32:0:0:       class=0x020000 card=0x705d103c chip=0x165b14e4 
rev=0x10 hdr=0x00
     vendor     = 'Broadcom Corporation'
     device     = 'NetXtreme BCM5723 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe'
     class      = network
     subclass   = ethernet

Is this known behaviour ? Are there still any issues with bge(4) ? 
Another one is running some older version of RC1, r259449 - I've checked 
the svnweb and saw that last update was at r258830, so it must be a 
combination of ASF + MSI that does this. Is there anything I can do 
about this, aside from turning off the MSI/ASF stuff ?

Thanks.
Eugene.
