Hi,
Here is the output of dhclient -v -d xl0
I I checked. Dhclient still initializes the
interface and brings it up itself. So there
is only one possibility:
You don't have a working link. Maybe it helps
if you add a interface define in /etc/dhclient.conf
wit the possible media.

Isn't there a way to see that the card doesn't support reporting
media status ? If the card does report this, I could add code
to dhclient and all would be fine.
Yes; check the media status word for IFM_AVALID.

I know. But I'd consider that as a kernel bug, not dhclient fault.
Would it help the set the card into promisc. mode anyway, even
if we don't have link ?

Argl, of course the patch was wrong. Ok, this should work

Hi,
Adapted to the newst source-version, the patch will look like
this. After I got home, I'll test it.

It looks like a problem with dhclient, and not the
kernel, because an older version of dhclient works fine.

Erm. What does 'ifconfig xl0' show you ? For dhclient
it looks like you have no link.

OK, this is weird. I did not use your change to dhclient.
However, I did use Matthew Dodd's change to if_xl.c.

Have you done a ifconfig xl0 0.0.0.0 up before ?
xl0: No Link on interface
I think I'll have to support this, if the interface is
not initialized.

Hi,
Except that you've added code to dhclient that makes poor assumptions
about the ifmedia status word. Its optional; for hardware that you can
detect media status it can be used to display the status. For other
hardware, we shouldn't have to lie about media status; if the hardware
