FreeBSD 12.0-Release - bge driver - network card glitches

[Nikolas Chrysandreas]

Hi,

We've installed FreeBSD 12.0-Release on an HP DL380 Gen10.

Seems like the network card freezes from time to time.
Constant ping on machine stops working, ssh session is dropped and server is inaccessible. 

----
# pciconf -lv | grep -A4 bge
bge0 at pci0:2:0:0:	class=0x020000 card=0x22be103c chip=0x165714e4 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries'
    device     = 'NetXtreme BCM5719 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet
----
# ifconfig bge0
bge0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
	options=c009b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,VLAN_HWTSO,LINKSTATE>
	ether 54:80:28:56:20:88
	inet 192.168.180.39 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.180.255 
	media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT <full-duplex>)
	status: active
	nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
----

Also tried setting the following in loader.conf but has not solved the issue:
kern.ipc.nmbclusters="131072"
hw.bge.tso_enable=0
hw.pci.enable_msix=0
hw.pci.enable_msi=0
hw.bge.allow_asf=0
dev.bge.0.msi=0


Regards
Nik
