[pfSense] BCM5719 on FreeBSD 8.1 -RELEASE

K

kelsen

Hi guys,

I'm trying to use this NIC Broadcom BCM5719 - http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/networking/331T/ but FreeBSD doesn't seem to recognize it. I found a source for this bge module http://code.metager.de/source/xref/freebsd/sys/dev/bge/ and tried to compile one, but it's giving me a lot of errors.

Code:

What can I do to have this NIC working on this version of FreeBSD? On 8.3, it's working, but I can't use it.
 
FreeBSD 8.1 has been end-of-life since July 2012 and is not supported anymore.

[thread=40469]Topics about unsupported FreeBSD versions[/thread]
 
You could contact the maintainer of the bge(4) driver, but that's about it. If the source code of the driver did not support this specific chipset/type in the 8-1 era, it will have to be added by hand. It shouldn't be too difficult to upgrade your machine to 8.3 or 8-STABLE, though.
 
And that is the response!

Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, Kelsen Faria had to
walk into mine at 09:42:33 on Thursday 29 August 2013 and say:

I realize my e-mail address is still in the driver source, but I do not do
_any_ FreeBSD development anymore! I haven't done any for 10 years! Direct all
your questions to the FreeBSD mailing lists!

I didn't tell you all the truth, actually this is a pfSense 2.0.3 which uses FreeBSD 8.1, there is a pfSense 2.1, but it is RC, that is why I didn't upgrade it yet. Looks like I will have to wait to be able to use this NIC.

As others have said, your best bet is to move to a supported FreeBSD release.

However, the URL you said you fetched the code from seems to be tracking FreeBSD-CURRENT (which will eventually become FreeBSD 10.0). So you're trying to build a driver intended for a much newer system.

You may find something that compiles with fewer error messages here: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/stable/8/sys/dev/bge/

Of course, this sort of "mix and match" is completely unsupported.
 
Thank you for your reply, unfortunately the same result.

As I mentioned, "mix and match" is unsupported. You'll need to track down where each of the undefined symbols. For example, all of this:
Code: 
if_bge.c: In function 'bge_miibus_statchg':
if_bge.c:1288: error: 'IFM_ETH_TXPAUSE' undeclared (first use in this function)
if_bge.c:1288: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
if_bge.c:1288: error: for each function it appears in.)
if_bge.c:1288: error: invalid operands to binary &
if_bge.c:1290: error: 'IFM_ETH_RXPAUSE' undeclared (first use in this function)
if_bge.c:1290: error: invalid operands to binary &
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
is coming from a missing definition in /usr/include/net/if_media.h:
Code: 
#define     IFM_ETH_RXPAUSE 0x00000200      /* receive PAUSE frames */
#define     IFM_ETH_TXPAUSE 0x00000400      /* transmit PAUSE frames */
Of course, if you replace that file, you may have problems compiling other modules which depend on the unaltered version.
