I guess you hit known msk(4) issue for 88E8056/88E1149 PHY. Some users have no problems but others seem to suffer from the issue. There is also a PR about this but it seems it's hard to fix that mainly because I don't have access to the hardware. > mskc0: [MPSAFE] > mskc0: [FILTER] > pci5: driver added > pci6: driver added > msk0: link state changed to DOWN > msk0: link state changed to UP > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > mskc0: Tx descriptor error > msk0: watchdog timeout > msk0: link state changed to DOWN > msk0: link state changed to UP _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
