There are some problems on PHY operations like following:
1. doesn't manual link up, offten.
# ifconfig re0 up
re0: PHY write failed
re0: PHY write failed
re0: PHY write failed
re0: PHY write failed
#
(But 'status: no carrier' or no 'status:' line)
2. doesn't automatic link up on connected to L2SW, sometimes.
# ifconfig re0
:
staus: no carrier
Sometimes, good works. Such as, RTL8169SBL communicated good.
Overall, it is not stable.
