https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=218579 --- Comment #59 from Keve Nagy <freebsd.bug@nagykeve.e4ward.com> --- Uploaded the new test logs. With the most recently shared patch applied, bge WOL works on both 13.3R and 14.0R. Mind you, booting the patched GENERIC kernel automatically enables WOL_MAGIC, no need to issue an "ifconfig bge0 wol". In fact, that command does not seem to change anything at all. For reference, I also included the "ifconfig em0" output from a Dell Optiplex 7050 (has no bge). And the behaviour is the same there. WOL_MAGIC is immediately enabled for the em0, no need for an "ifconfig em0 wol". Although, this command does seem to enable other WOL_ options for the em0, and those options I have never seen with the bge interface. Summary: as much as I can tell, these bge patches achieve WOL, work reliably on both 13R and 14R. Tested on two different computer models: HP T610 Thin Client, HP MicroServer N40L. I hope to see this incorporated to the base system. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
