There are some bugs in the implementation of the ifmedia stuff for the "an" driver. I saw some inconsistancies in the reporting. That strange thing is the DDB wouldn't give me a back track or anything like that. I did single step through DDB after setting a break point in an_ioctl and it did die when doing the media ioctl. I'm going to look at some LEAP stuff and your changes. I had a netboot environment working where I could run gdb remotely and trace the kernel at a higher level except that it seems the environment need is broken so I need to work on that. Then I should have a fix for the panic and fix up some of the other problems. Also there seems to be a lot of emerging things. For example Cisco has a alternate home profile and LEAP is supported. How do you plan to add this. BTW when I was working on the latest changes to the "an" driver it was really cool disable the slot via pccardc. kldunload the driver and replace it with the new one and then enable the slot. This way I could develope the kernel code on the laptop that I debugging the code with rebooting! This kld stuff is way cool ... until I started getting panics :-( Doug A.
