Hmm... I can see several bus_dma(9) related bugs in bce(4).
For architectures that have IOMMU hardware it may have corrupted DMA
mapping and I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work on sparc64.
When it has to handle many fragmented frame or has insufficient
number of free Tx descriptors it would show unexpected results.
Unfortunately I don't have hardwares supported by bce(4) and
fixing requiries a working hardware. :-(
I see ... I am running amd64 on some dell poweredge 1950 boxes.
They're xeon processors, but have chosen amd64 because they have 8gig
of ram each.
Here are the relevant details on the interface....
bce0: <Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 1000Base-T (B1), v0.9.5> mem
0xf4000000-0xf5ffffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci9
bce0: ASIC ID 0x57081010; Revision (B1); PCI-X 64-bit 133MHz
miibus0: <MII bus> on bce0
brgphy0: <BCM5708C 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> on miibus0
brgphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseTX,
1000baseTX-FDX, auto
I could make a machine available remotely to someone if it would help.
Any other advice on how I can help move this forward would be greatly
appreciated!
thanks,
scott
