Dear colleagues,

experimenting with new amd64-based router we found strange re(4) behaviour
when working in autoselect media mode:

whenever promisc mode turned on, renegotiating occurs, leading to 3 to 45
(depending on STP settings on the switch) network unavailability.

Moreover, some other re(4) setting changes seem to disturb link state
unneededly (such as ifconfig re0 -vlanhwtag)

The most annoying fact is that we non-autonegotiating mode with our re and
D-Link gigabit switches: fixing media at 1000BaseTX leads to link down
regardless of master/slave settings on both sides; on re side it is even
undocumented.

Any clues?

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Further investigation revealed even more weirdness of re driver:

If re card plugged into switch (tested with Catalyst 2948G) with fixed port
speed/duplex (100/full) settings, and we trying to reboot - re driver fails to
attach:

re0: diagnostic failed, failed to receive packet in loopback mode
re0: attach aborted due to hardware diag failure
rgephy0: detached
miibus0: detached
device_attach: re0 attach returned 5


If switch port configured for 'auto' mode we can reboot without problems.


JFYI: attached patch solved both issues. (made using http://people.freebsd.org/~wpaul/re/)
