Hi all,

we're using FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p8 (OPNsense 17.1.4-amd64) on a HP DL360
Gen9 server.

We've just received a new NIC, a HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 4-port 536FLR-T.

The NIC isn't recognized leaving this information in 'pciconf -lv':
















*none145@pci0:4:0:0:     class=0x020000 card=0x00ec1590 chip=0x16a11077
rev=0x11 hdr=0x00    vendor     = 'QLogic Corp.'    class      = network
subclass   = ethernetnone146@pci0:4:0:1:     class=0x020000 card=0x00ec1590
chip=0x16a11077 rev=0x11 hdr=0x00    vendor     = 'QLogic Corp.'
class      = network    subclass   = ethernetnone147@pci0:4:0:2:
class=0x020000 card=0x00ec1590 chip=0x16a11077 rev=0x11 hdr=0x00
vendor     = 'QLogic Corp.'    class      = network    subclass   =
ethernetnone148@pci0:4:0:3:     class=0x020000 card=0x00ec1590
chip=0x16a11077 rev=0x11 hdr=0x00    vendor     = 'QLogic Corp.'
class      = network    subclass   = ethernet*


The following information's in *dmesg*:




*pci7: <network, ethernet> at device 0.0 (no driver attached)pci7:
<network, ethernet> at device 0.1 (no driver attached)pci7: <network,
ethernet> at device 0.2 (no driver attached)pci7: <network, ethernet> at
device 0.3 (no driver attached)*

According to '*https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=bxe&sektion=4&manpath=freebsd-release-ports
<https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=bxe&sektion=4&manpath=freebsd-release-ports>*'
and the information below from HPE's site, we're trying to use the if_bxe
driver but with no results...

*«««The HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 4-port 536FLR-T Adapter is a 4-port 10GBASE-T
adapter, featuring the 57840S 10 Gb Ethernet controller from Qlogic in a
PCIe 3.0 compliant form factor designed for HPE ProLiant Gen9 rack
servers.»»» *


Any ideas / suggestions?



Thanks in advance,
