Hello,

I have 02 dual port Broadcom BCM5709CC0KPBG device running on
routing/pf machine (Dell T110) - OpenBSD 4.7 amd64:


b...@pci0:3:0:0:        class=0x020000 card=0x191714e4 chip=0x163914e4
rev=0x20 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Broadcom Corporation'
    device     = 'NetXtreme II Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5709)'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet
b...@pci0:3:0:1:        class=0x020000 card=0x191714e4 chip=0x163914e4
rev=0x20 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Broadcom Corporation'
    device     = 'NetXtreme II Gigabit Ethernet (BCM5709)'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet

... and more bce2 and bce3

One of the NICs is connected across 2 internet links and speed works
fine until uses of reply-to in pf.conf, for example:

pass in quick on bce0 reply-to ( bce0 ip_address_gw1 ) tagged LINK1
pass in quick on bce1 reply-to ( bce1 ip_address_gw2 ) tagged LINK2

After running pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf the 2 internet links goes very
very slow (3KB/s) and CPU irq increases to 10-12%. I have the same
scenario with other NIC cards and works fine, so I think that (maybe)
is a driver problem..

Anyone here uses routing operations (PF) with BCM5709C ethernet cards?

Thanks in advance,

- cbc
