I tried to report earlier here that CURRENT does have some serious
problems right now and one of those problems seems to be triggered by
the recent re(4) driver. The problem is also present in recen 11-STABLE!
Below, you'll find pciconf-output reagrding the device on a Lenovo E540
Laptop I can test on and trigger the problem.
The phenomenon is that this NIC does not negotiate 1000baseTX, it is
always falling back to 100baseTX although the device claims to be a 1
GBit capable device.
When I try to put the device manually into 1000basTX mode via
ifconfig re0 media 1000baseTX mediaopt full-duplex (with re(4) driver)
it is possible to crash the system. The system also crashes when
plugging/unplugging the LAN cord - I guess the renegotiation is
triggering this crash immediately.
I tried with several switches and routers capable of 1 GBit and it
seems to be independent from the network hardware in use.
I tried to capture a backtrace when the kernel crashes, but I do not
know how to save the the kernel debugger output. Although I configured
according the handbook debugging, there is no coredump at all.
Advice is appreciated - if anybody is interesetd in solving this.
Thank you very much in advance and kind regards,
Oliver
