Problem solved, I'm so embarrassed :) The issue on 7.2 mentioned above
with
ixgbe (tons of "fragmentation failed" errors) was real. The issue in
8.3-RC3
was because dummynet wasn't being loaded at all... so no traffic could
pass
on it, despite dummynet_load="YES" being set in /boot/loader.conf. So I
turned it on in /etc/rc.conf : dummynet_enable="YES" and loaded it
"kldload
dummynet" in order to do without a reboot. Works like a charm so far.
Thanks
to all!
Looks like loading dummynet.ko via /boot/loader.conf doesn't work because
dummynet.ko depends on dummynet.ko but of the different version.
Would dummynet_enable="YES" in rc.conf still work? We haven't yet had a
chance to reboot to test that.
Yes, it would.
Note that it depends on firewall_enable="YES" also present in rc.conf.
Thanks, I see. Now I think that changing through rc.conf is the
"official", or "supported", way of enabling dummynet upon reboot, but
loader.conf is a little way under the hood. I always asked myself why it
was settable in two places, and not one. But now I know. The fact that
dummynet can be set to load in loader.conf is more like an undesired
effect of generality.
