Hi,
we have two new Dell R610 machines with four bce NICs (only
bce0 is connected at this time). I tried cold (power cycle in
iDRAC) and warm reboot (shutdown -r now), NIC is working on
every reboot, but I am still seeing messages:
bce0: /usr/src/sys/dev/bce/if_bce.c(1525): PHY write timeout!
bce0: /usr/src/sys/dev/bce/if_bce.c(1525): PHY write timeout!
bce0: link state changed to UP
This is on FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p4 amd64
I also see "PHY write timeout" on shutdown time for each NIC.
Other than the log messages, I see no problems with bce NIC,
but I have not tested it with any high load.
I did not upgraded FW or anything else.
What can I do to help with solving this issue?
You'll need to upgrade to 7-STABLE.
Dave
Thank you!
Todays 7-STABLE seems fine.
FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #1: Thu Nov 12 17:20:36 CET 2009 GENERIC amd64
bce0 has firmware 5.0.9 and is attached to brgphy instead of previous ukphy.
bce0: <Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 1000Base-T (C0)> mem
0xd6000000-0xd7ffffff irq 36 at device 0.0 on pci1
miibus0: <MII bus> on bce0
brgphy0: <BCM5709C 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> PHY 1 on miibus0
brgphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT,
1000baseT-FDX, auto
No more "PHY write timeout" messages on shutdown or bootup.
So problem seems solved by 7-STABLE.
