Hi,
recently I installed a win2k partition on this box. A reboot from windows into
FreeBSD makes the bfe driver unusable, displaying:
Apr 12 01:04:09 sarevok kernel: bfe0: BUG! Timeout waiting for bit 00000002
of register 42c to clear.
Apr 12 01:04:09 sarevok kernel: bfe0: BUG! Timeout waiting for bit 00000002
of register 42c to clear.
Apr 12 01:04:09 sarevok kernel: bfe0: BUG! Timeout waiting for bit 80000000
of register 428 to clear.
Apr 12 01:04:10 sarevok kernel: bfe0: BUG! Timeout waiting for bit 80000000
of register 428 to clear.
Apr 12 01:04:25 sarevok kernel: bfe0: BUG! Timeout waiting for bit 80000000
of register 428 to clear.
This happens as soon as dhclient tries to use the card and it's downhill from
there on.
A complete shutdown and startup makes the card work again.
I've seen this in various -CURRENT kernels, including the currently loaded one
with sources from Apr 4.
I can't vouch for any sources previous to Mar 15, as around that time is when
I installed this Win2k partition.
Dell Inspiron 8600, Broadcom BCM4401 Fast Ethernet> mem 0xfaffe000-0xfaffffff
irq 11 at device 0.0 on pci2, with:
$ cat /etc/start_if.bfe0
ifconfig bfe0 link 0:50:FC:51:05:DB
so I can plug in to my parent's cable when I'm there.
The Dell driver is the 'latest'.
