Hi all,I've got a Gigabyte motherboard with a Realtek onboard NIC and an ifconfig shows the MAC to be all zeros.
Relevant dmesg at boot: /netbsd: re0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0pci_mem_find: void region /netbsd: : RealTek 8168B/8111B PCIe Gigabit Ethernet (rev. 0x02) /netbsd: re0: interrupting at ioapic0 pin 17 (irq 10) /netbsd: re0: Unknown revision (0x3c000000) /netbsd: re0: Ethernet address 00:00:00:00:00:00 /netbsd: re0: using 256 tx descriptors/netbsd: rgephy0 at re0 phy 7: RTL8169S/8110S 1000BASE-T media interface, rev. 2 /netbsd: rgephy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT, 1000baseT-FDX, auto
and then later: /netbsd: re0: PHY write reg 0 <- 8000 failed /netbsd: re0: PHY write reg 1f <- 1 failed /netbsd: re0: PHY write reg 9 <- 273a failed /netbsd: re0: PHY write reg e <- 7bfb failed /netbsd: re0: PHY write reg 1b <- 841e failedIt works with a cross-over CAT5 cable so it looks like it just may be the probing of the MAC address. Has anyone got a patch to fix this?
Many thanks, Brad
