When ixgbe receives an interrupt indicating that a new optical module may have been inserted, it discards all of its current media types by calling ifmedia_removeall() and then creates a new set of media types for the supported media on the new module. However, ifmedia_removeall() was maintaining a pointer to whatever the current media type was before the call to ifmedia_removealL(). The result of this was that any attempt to read the current media type of the interface (e.g. via ifconfig) would return potentially garbage data from free memory (or if one were particularly unlucky on an architecture that does not malloc() from a direct map, page fault the kernel). Fix this by NULL'ing out the current media field in if_media.c, and have ixgbe update the current media type after recreating them.

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. See build(7) and 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. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. 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 kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
