Hi!
There's been a whole bunch of work lately on wpi. are you able to
revert just sys/dev/wpi/ and see if you can find where the problem
occured?
You should be able to just build wpi:
* comment it out of your config file
* then build/use it as a module
* .. and you can build just it:
make buildkernel KERNCONF=X MODULES_OVERRIDE="wpi" NO_CLEAN=1
make reinstallkernel KERNCONF=X MODULES_OVERRIDE="wpi"
I'll see about digging out a wpi NIC and trying it again; maybe the
most recent commits did break something.
Thanks for reporting this problem!
