Thanks for this! I'm sorry it hasn't gotten any more attention. I've cc'ed john because he understands the PCI-PCI resource allocation stuff and I currently don't; I'm hoping he can stare at this and see what's going on. But yes, if it were an ath(4) problem, the NIC would be returning 0xdeadbeef, 0xdeadc0de, etc. It wouldn't return 0xffffffff - that happens when there's nothing mapped at that address. The PCI config space that you've provided shows BAR(0) is programmed correctly.. adrian On 23 November 2012 13:35, <husyh@hush.com> wrote: > Hello everyone, > > since this problem hasn't got any attention in the last 14 days, I decided to file a bug report, so that this issue doesn't sink into oblivion: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=173883 > > I'm still very glad for any attempt to help, and willing to provide more information and/or test things if you provide some guidance. > > Thanks! > > On Samstag, 10.
