VR_STICKHW register would result in unexpected results on these hardwares. wpaul said the following for the issue. The vr_attach() routine unconditionally does this for all supported chips: /* * Windows may put the chip in suspend mode when it * shuts down. Be sure to kick it in the head to wake it * up again. */ VR_CLRBIT(sc, VR_STICKHW, (VR_STICKHW_DS0|VR_STICKHW_DS1)); The problem is, the VR_STICKHW register is not valid on all Rhine devices. The VT86C100A chip, which is present on the D-Link DFE-530TX boards, doesn't support power management, and its register space is only 128 bytes wide. The VR_STICKHW register offset falls outside this range. This may go unnoticed in most scenarios, but if you happen to have another PCI device in your system which is assigned the register space immediately after that of the Rhine, the vr(4) driver will incorrectly stomp it. In my case, the BIOS on my test board decided to put the register space for my PRO/100 ethernet board right next to the Rhine, and the Rhine driver ended up clobbering the IMR register of the PRO/100 device. (Long story short: the board kept locking up on boot. Took me the better part of the morning suss out why.) The strictly correct thing to do would be to check the PCI config space to make sure the device supports the power management capability and only write to the VR_STICKHW register if it does. Instead of inspecting chip revision numbers for the availability of VR_STICKHW register, check the existence of power management capability of the hardware as wpaul suggested.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
