From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED], "Andy Farkas" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: kern/112654: [pcn] Kernel panic upon if_pcn module load on a Netfinity 5000 Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2008 19:23:17 +0100 New test was carried out today using Marius' patch (and not using Andy's patch at the same time). The new kernel re-introduces the original problem, loading the if_pcn driver while the RJ45 cable is connected results in a kernel panic and the system reboots. While the cable is disconnected the if_pcn module loads fine, after which the cable can be plugged back and the card can be used as expected. ### Here is what shows up upon "kldload if_pcn" while the cable is unplugged ### pcn0: <AMD PCnet/PCI 10/100BaseTX> port 0x2180-0x219f mem 0xfebff800-0xfebff81f irq 17 at device 9.0 on pci0 pcn0: Chip ID 2624 (Am79C972) miibus5: <MII bus> on pcn0 nsphyter0: <DP83843 10/100 media interface> on miibus5 nsphyter0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto ukphy0: <Generic IEEE 802.3u media interface> on miibus5 ukphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, auto pcn0: Ethernet address: 00:06:29:50:d9:9e ### At that point ifconfig says: ### [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~# ifconfig pcn0 pcn0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ether 00:06:29:50:d9:9e media: Ethernet autoselect (none) status: no carrier ### Then I connect the RJ45 cable coming from the switch and: ### [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~# ifconfig pcn0 pcn0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ether 00:06:29:50:d9:9e media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~# ### Now here is what "kldload if_pcn" does while the cable is connected: ### pcn0: <AMD PCnet/PCI 10/100BaseTX> port 0x2180-0x219f mem 0xfebff800-0xfebff81f irq 17 at device 9.0 on pci0 pcn0: Chip ID 2624 (Am79C972) miibus5: <MII bus> on pcn0 nsphyter0: <DP83843 10/100 media interface> on miibus5 nsphyter0: no media present ifmedia_set: no match for 0x0/0xfffffff panic: ifmedia_set Regards, Keve _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
