I just upgraded one of the lab boxes, an HP DL580-G3 with an NC6770 GigE
fiber card to 7.0-REL, and noticed that this card no longer works:
b...@pci0:10:1:0: class=0x020000 card=0x00c10e11 chip=0x164514e4
rev=0x15 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation'
device = 'BCM5701 NetXtreme BCM5701 Gigabit Ethernet'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
We were previously running 5.3 on this box (I know, VERY old), but never
had a problem. The link now fails to come up. I've tried forcing the
port out of auto (media 1000baseSX mediaopt full-duplex) and as long as
the port doesn't have an IP assigned via rc.conf on system boot, I can
get the switch to see it (Cisco 6505), but no traffic to flow. I've
checked all the obvious things (duplex setting on switch, cable failure,
etc.), all to no avail. I fiddled with the knobs in the driver (rxcsum,
vlan_mtu, etc) with no changes either.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
