How to use nForce3 internal NIC on FreeBSD 5-CURRENT-AMD64

Hello, all,

Now, I can use nForce3 Ethernet on FreeBSD 5-CURRENT-AMD64.

ABSTRACT:
 - ports/net/nvnet is kernel module to use nForce Ethernet Controller.
 - Driver for Linux-AMD64 is officially available.
 - FreeBSD-AMD64 doesn't support kernel module currently.
 - Thus, possibly I can use the driver for AMD64 with static linking.

PREPARATION:

Obtain two files:
nvnet-src-20040108.tar.gz
 http://www.onthenet.com.au/~q/nvnet/nvnet-src-20040108.tar.gz
and
Official nForce Drivers for Linux AMD64(1.0.0269)
 http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/nforce/1.0-0269/NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0269.tar.gz

Then, extract them in your temporary directory.

DRIVER INSTALLATION:

Make dir /usr/src/sys/dev/nvnet and collect the following files into the
directory.

(nvnet-src-20040108.tar.gz):
  nvnet/src/{if_nv.c, if_nvreg.h}
(NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0269.tar.gz):
  nforce/nvnet/{basetype.h, os.h, adapter.h, nvnetlib.o, phy.h}

And, touch /usr/src/sys/dev/nvnet/nvnetlib.c.
At this point, you can see eight files under /usr/src/sys/dev/nvnet.

  # cd /usr/src/sys/dev/nvnet/
  # ls
  adapter.h       if_nv.c         nvnetlib.c      os.h
  basetype.h      if_nvreg.h      nvnetlib.o      phy.h

Apply the patch(nvnet-amd64-patch.diff attached to this mail) in the directory.

  # patch -p1 < nvnet-amd64-patch.diff

Append the following lines to /usr/src/sys/conf/files.amd64.

  dev/nvnet/if_nv.c               optional nv pci
  dev/nvnet/nvnetlib.c            optional nv pci

COMPILING KERNEL:

Append a line to your kernel CONFIGFILE.

  device   nv

Then, execute 'config CONFIGFILE', move into compilation directory, copy
/usr/src/sys/dev/nvnet/nvnetlib.o into the directory (make sure that
nvnetlib.o is newer than /usr/src/sys/dev/nvnet/nvnetlib.c).
And make depend and make. You can build new kernel with nvnet driver.
dmesg is like this.
