rtsol is not working for my kernel build with iwn but everything else works. I'm running a very recent stable/10 (kernel is 262621) upgraded to pick up iwn stuff from head: svn merge \ https://svn0.us-east.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/dev/iwn \ dev/iwn svn merge \ https://svn0.us-east.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/modules/iwnfw \ modules/iwnfw svn merge https://svn0.us-east.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/contrib/dev/iwn \ contrib/dev/iwn That was to get the Centrino 2000 support from the head branch. That works. iwn0: <Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 2200 BGN> mem 0xf1c00000-0xf1c01fff irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci3 Everything works as far as I can tell except rtsol. # rtsold -f -d -D wlan0 checking if wlan0 is ready... wlan0 does not accept Router Advertisement. set timer for wlan0 to 1s New timer is 1s timer expiration on wlan0, state = 3 checking if wlan0 is ready... wlan0 does not accept Router Advertisement. set timer for wlan0 to 1s New timer is 1s timer expiration on wlan0, state = 3 checking if wlan0 is ready... wlan0 does not accept Router Advertisement. set timer for wlan0 to 1s New timer is 1s [ ... etc ... ] If I use rtsold -a it sees wlan0 as not ready and doesn't try to use it but then it receives occasional RA anyway but ignores them because it sees wlan0 as not ready. If I ifconfig inet6 ... alias I get an IPv6 address configured and manually add a default route, then everything is fine. This workaround is OK for home but is not practical for roaming about (like going to IETF) if I want IPv6 to work. Does anyone know why rtsold isn't seeing wlan0 as ready? Is there any info I could provide? How likely is it that will a kernel built from head this would just go away and rtsold would just work. btw- headed for IETF so I'll have a chance to test iwn in a very busy environment and would be willing to help if anyone wants to do that sort of debugging. [I have a usb wlan (run0) as a fallback] Curtis
