https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=295985 --- Comment #6 from Adrian Chadd <adrian@freebsd.org> --- It's happening because the iflib (iflib_device_register()) path holds the iflib lock during the call to ixgbe_if_attach_post(). It's not holding it across ether_attach() because that's where the initial miibus stuff happens and similar locking stuff would cause the same failure drama. This is .. hilariously annoying. I have a feeling the only way you're going to get around this for now is adding e6000sw to kld_list in /etc/rc.conf, not loading it at boot time. This is also going to need to be fixed for any other iflib'ed driver with an mdiobus. :/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
