You're welcome. For what it's worth, the Linux driver uses the second set of values referenced below. I think one of the two drivers likely has a bug, but I'm not currently in a position to test it on hardware, so you don't need to fix it on my account :) Thanks and regards, Matt -----Original Message----- From: YongHyeon PYUN [mailto:pyunyh@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2012 8:45 PM To: Matt Renzelmann Cc: freebsd-net@freebsd.org Subject: Re: 8139 driver question On Thu, Feb 02, 2012 at 08:43:09AM -0600, Matt Renzelmann wrote: > Hello, > > This will seem a bit off the wall, but I just noticed a discrepancy between the > registers defined in the pci/if_rlreg.h directory and those specified on the > RealTek datasheets for the antique RealTek 8139. > > In particular, as defined in the header, the registers in question are: > #define RL_CFG0 0x0051 /* config register #0 */ > #define RL_CFG1 0x0052 /* config register #1 */ > #define RL_CFG2 0x0053 /* config register #2 */ > #define RL_CFG3 0x0054 /* config register #3 */ > #define RL_CFG4 0x0055 /* config register #4 */ > #define RL_CFG5 0x0056 /* config register #5 */ > > The RealTek data sheets for the 8139, however, all indicate that these should be > set to something like this: > #define RL_CFG0 0x0051 /* config register #0 */ > #define RL_CFG1 0x0052 /* config register #1 */ > // No Config2 > #define RL_CFG3 0x0059 /* config register #3 */ > #define RL_CFG4 0x005A /* config register #4 */ > #define RL_CFG5 0x00D8 /* config register #5 */ > > The datasheets I'm referencing are available here: > http://realtek.info/pdf/ > > Specifically: > http://realtek.info/pdf/rtl8139d.pdf > http://realtek.info/pdf/rtl8139cp.pdf > > I believe the registers currently used apply to the 8169, but not necessarily > the 8139 family -- can someone, hopefully easily, verify that the 8139 driver is > using the right registers?

As you said RTL8139/RTL8139C+ use different config registers and it may affect WOL functionality. When I implemented WOL on rl(4), I remember WOL worked at that time. After reading your mail, I wonder how it would have worked at that time. :-( Thanks. > Thanks and regards, > Matt
