            Bug ID: 234766
           Summary: em(4) Intel 82579LM MSI-X problem
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: PopularMoment@protonmail.com

12.0-RELEASE-p1 on a Supermicro X9SCM-F using the on board em0 which is a
82579LM.

MSI-X is enabled by default despite the driver initialisation showing a pro=
blem
with MSI-X: "Unable to map MSIX table"

em0: <Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection> port 0xf020-0xf03f mem
0xfbb00000-0xfbb1ffff,0xfbb24000-0xfbb24fff irq 20 at device 25.0 on pci0
em0: attach_pre capping queues at 1
em0: using 1024 tx descriptors and 1024 rx descriptors
em0: msix_init qsets capped at 1
em0: Unable to map MSIX table=20
em0: Using an MSI interrupt
em0: allocated for 1 tx_queues
em0: allocated for 1 rx_queues
em0: Ethernet address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
em0: netmap queues/slots: TX 1/1024, RX 1/1024

# pciconf -lv
[...]
em0@pci0:0:25:0:        class=3D0x020000 card=3D0x150215d9 chip=3D0x1502808=
6 rev=3D0x05
hdr=3D0x00
    vendor     =3D 'Intel Corporation'
    device     =3D '82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (Lewisville)'
    class      =3D network
    subclass   =3D ethernet

This eventually leads to the interface going down, yet the box remains up a=
nd
responsive, with the only recourse to restoring the network being a reboot.

em0: TX(0) desc avail =3D 42, pidx =3D 988
em0: link state changed to DOWN
em0: TX(0) desc avail =3D 1024, pidx =3D 0
em0: TX(0) desc avail =3D 1024, pidx =3D 0
[...]
em0: TX(0) desc avail =3D 1024, pidx =3D 0


The workaround appears to be to disable MSI-X:

# sysctl dev.em.0.iflib.disable_msix=3D0
