Again me, I tried to build the chelsio driver (if_cxgbe) on my machine. root@fw-94:/usr/src/sys/modules/cxgbe # make ; make install -> no errors so far and I see the new kernel module in /boot/modules:
root@fw-94:/usr/src/sys/modules/cxgbe # ls -alh /boot/modules/ total 4584 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 16B Jul 3 16:37 . drwxr-xr-x 15 root wheel 68B Jul 3 16:37 .. -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 46K Jul 3 16:37 ccr.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 47K Jul 3 16:37 cxgbei.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11K Jul 3 16:37 if_cc.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11K Jul 3 16:37 if_ccv.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 746K Jul 3 16:37 if_cxgbe.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 41K Jul 3 16:37 if_cxgbev.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11K Jul 3 16:37 if_cxl.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11K Jul 3 16:37 if_cxlv.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 154K Jul 3 16:37 iw_cxgbe.ko -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 1.3K Jul 3 16:37 linker.hints -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 131K Jul 3 16:37 t4_tom.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 596K Jul 3 16:37 t4fw_cfg.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 725K Jul 3 16:37 t5fw_cfg.ko -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 777K Jul 3 16:37 t6fw_cfg.ko However still the same result, the new sysctl values are not visible. Any help would be appreciated. Btw.: reboot has been done.

However I tried to load the new sysctl values like “hw.cxgbe.rsrv_norssq» in loader.conf, how can I verify that it works as it should? It seems that they don’t work as the don’t show up when I try to print out the new sysctl values. You mentioned that I’ve to patch the kernel, do you mean execute the patch diff? Or is there anything else I’ve to do except to execute your patch diff? What about my driver, do I need to change anything there? Thank you, cheers Josef
