cards: the chips are all marked "RTL8111B", but they put stickers on the back that say "RTL8168B/8111B". The manual says there's only one HWREV code for both the 8111B and 8168B devices, which is 0x30000000, but the cards they sent me actually report HWREV of 0x38000000. Deciding to trust the hardware in front of me rather than a possibly incorrect manual (it wouldn't be the first time the HWREVs were incorrectly documented), I changed the 8168 revision code. It turns out this was a mistake though: 0x30000000 really is a valid for the 8168. There are two possible reasons for there to be two different HWREVs: 1) 0x30000000 is used only for the 8168B and 0x38000000 is only for the 8111B. 2) There were 8111/8168 rev A devices which both used code 0x30000000, and the 8111B/8168B both use 0x38000000. The product list on the RealTek website doesn't mention the existence of any 8168/8111 rev A chips being in production though, and I've never seen one, so until I get clarification from RealTek, I'm going to assume that 0x30000000 is just for the 8168B and 0x38000000 is for the 8111B only. So, the HWREV code for the 8168 has been put back to 0x30000000, a new 8111 HWREV code has been added, and there are now separate entries for recognizing both devices in the device list. This will allow all devices to work, though if it turns out I'm wrong I may need to change the ID strings |

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.
