Hi Marius, Thanks for the patch. I manually made changes to the two files, and after building the kernel and installing it, I can see the re0 interface. I am now sending this email using the new laptop.
However, I am a bit confused by the dmesg output. I see two sets of lines pertaining to the re0 device. $dmesg | grep -i re0 re0: <RealTek 8168/8111 B/C/CP/D/DP/E/F/G PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> port 0x3000-0x30ff mem 0xb0604000-0xb0604fff,0xb0600000-0xb0603fff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci2 re0: Using 1 MSI-X message re0: turning off MSI enable bit. re0: ASPM disabled re0: Chip rev. 0x54000000 re0: MAC rev. 0x00100000 re0: Unknown H/W revision: 0x54000000 device_attach: re0 attach returned 6 re0: <RealTek 8168/8111 B/C/CP/D/DP/E/F/G PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> port 0x3000-0x30ff mem 0xb0604000-0xb0604fff,0xb0600000-0xb0603fff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci2 re0: Using 1 MSI-X message re0: ASPM disabled re0: Chip rev. 0x54000000 re0: MAC rev. 0x00100000 miibus0: <MII bus> on re0 re0: Using defaults for TSO: 65518/35/2048 re0: Ethernet address: 2c:60:0c:92:0f:c2 seems the driver attempted to initialize the device twice? Anyway, it is working now. thanks, Sreenath -------------------------------------------- On Thu, 9/10/15, Marius Strobl <mar...@alchemy.franken.de> wrote: Subject: Re: realtek interface not working To: "Sreenath Battalahalli" <sreenat...@rocketmail.com> Cc: freebsd-net@freebsd.org Date: Thursday, September 10, 2015, 7:12 PM On Thu, Sep 10, 2015 at 08:33:06AM -0700, Sreenath Battalahalli wrote: > Hi > > I got a new laptop (Acer E5-573) that has a Realtek 1Gbps adapter. > ifconfig after booting does not list re0 interface. > > Here are relevant lines from dmesg: > > re0: <RealTek 8168/8111 B/C/CP/D/DP/E/F/G PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> port 0x3000-0x3 > 0ff mem 0xb0604000-0xb0604fff,0xb0600000-0xb0603fff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci2 > re0: Using 1 MSI-X message > re0: turning off MSI enable bit. > re0: ASPM disabled > re0: Chip rev. 0x54000000 > re0: MAC rev. 0x00100000 > re0: Unknown H/W revision: 0x54000000 > device_attach: re0 attach returned 6 > > Looks like this hardware is not supported by the driver. > > Freebsd version is 10.2 amd64 > > any help if getting this to work appreciated. > Please give the attached patch a try.
