Hi,
I=E2=80=99m trying to get ipheth to work as a 5G hotspot on my FreeBSD =
home router/server, using the method described in man 4 ipheth. The =
final step fails to get a DHCP lease.
The configuration is on FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE-p5/amd64 and an iPhone 13 =
mini. Is this configuration supported? And if so, where did I go wrong?
Details below.
# kldstat | grep ipheth
23 1 0xffffffff82997000 21e0 if_ipheth.ko
# usbconfig | grep Apple
ugen2.2: <Apple Inc. iPhone> at usbus2, cfg=3D3 md=3DHOST spd=3DHIGH =
(480Mbps) pwr=3DON (500mA)
# usbconfig -d 2.2 dump_all_config_desc | grep -E '(^ Conf|iConf)'
Configuration index 0
iConfiguration =3D 0x0005 <PTP>
Configuration index 1
iConfiguration =3D 0x0006 <iPod USB Interface>
Configuration index 2
iConfiguration =3D 0x0007 <PTP + Apple Mobile Device>
Configuration index 3
iConfiguration =3D 0x0008 <PTP + Apple Mobile Device + Apple USB =
Ethernet>
# usbconfig -d 2.2 set_config 3
# usbconfig | grep 'Apple.*cfg=3D3'
ugen2.2: <Apple Inc. iPhone> at usbus2, cfg=3D3 md=3DHOST spd=3DHIGH =
(480Mbps) pwr=3DON (500mA)
# dmesg | grep 'ue[0-9]'
ue0: <USB Ethernet> on ipheth0
ue0: Ethernet address: b2:67:b5:ce:d4:2d
At this point the man page expects to see a line: ue0: bpf attached, =
that I don=E2=80=99t have. Without that, it is no surprise that the next =
steps fail, DHCP requires bpf according to man bpf.
The iPhone did indeed ask whether the machine could be trusted (granted, =
of course), and from the green background on the time display it does =
appear to believe that it is indeed functioning as a hotspot for the =
machine (or whatever that's supposed to mean).

For completeness sake, I did have usbmuxd running during all this:

While this is a custom kernel, it includes GENERIC and doesn=E2=80=99t =
remove device bpf. I used it successfully prior to these attempts with =
DHCP on an Intel ethernet adapter:
# sysrc ifconfig_em1
ifconfig_em1: DHCP defaultif -tso4 -lro -vlanhwtso
So I know that DHCP works (in fact, this machine also runs isc_dhcp to =
provide my home network with address information).
