freebsd kernel with SKQ

submitter, who *still* hasn't bothered to answer me back. The thing which the submitter completely failed to mention is that his 3c900B-TPO card has the transceiver selection in the EEPROM set to "auto." You can tweak the setting using the 3C90XCFG.EXE utility that 3Com provides with the card. I'm not sure if it's supposed to default to auto or if the user fiddled with it. Currently, the xl driver only does autoselection for 10/100 NICs (i.e. those with NWAY autonegotiation capabilities). For the 10baseT, 10base5, 10base2, 10baseFL and 100baseFX cards, the driver sets the default media to whatever the EEPROM transceiver selector says. The problem is that the "auto" selection is mistakenly identified as "10/100 NWAY autoselection mode" and this is not handled correctly: the default media ends up being chosen as 100baseTX, which doesn't work because we've only added 10baseT media types to the ifmedia word. This leads to a panic in ifmedia_set() (something else which the submitter never bothered to mention). A workaround for this is to re-run the 3C90XCFG.EXE utility and change the transceiver selection to something besides "auto." I have also patched the driver to watch for the "auto" setting in the non-miibus case and select a reasonable default based on the card type instead of falling through to 100baseTX and exploding.

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 and the contents of /etc. 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 with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/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 LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it wouldn't even run).
