ixp4xx microcode problem

[David Cornejo]

Hi,

I downloaded IPL_ixp400NpeLibrary-2_3.zip from Intel to build a 
kernel for my Gateworks GW2348-2-CF (the one Netgate sells).  But 
when I attempt to boot the kernel it didn't find the image identifier 
requested in if_npe (0x01000200) and crashes (similar for npe1 
also).  I looked through IxNpeMicrocode.c, but the closest I found 
was 0x01000201.  So I hacked ixp425_npevar.h thusly:

  struct ixpnpe_softc;
  struct ixpnpe_softc *ixpnpe_attach(device_t);

So it now boots and I'm not seeing any problems (with npe0 at least) 
and it nfs mounts a root fs.

Is there any reason why I shouldn't do this, or can someone point me 
at the correct file to download from Intel that has the expected image in it?

thanks,
