These new controllers seems to use different descriptor format as well as new registers to control jumbo frame. Unfortunately no datasheets are available for these controllers so I need feedbacks from these hardware owners. The patch I made added basic support for checksum offload. ATM TSO and jumbo frame support were disabled for these controllers. I don't have any of these hardwares so if you have one of these hardwares please give it try and let me know how it goes. Some users reported success but I'd like to get more feedback because re(4) supports too many variants and I don't like to break supports for old RealTek hardwares. The patch was generated against CURRENT but it should apply to RELENG_7 too. You can find the patch at the following URL. http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/re/re.HEAD.20080607 Thanks. -- Regards, Pyun YongHyeon
