as a workaround for bug 275882. This port can be retired when the bug is resolved completely. Many people need the 198 version because of the hang-up issue. Another set of people need 199 because of another issue. This port is needed to satisfy both sets of people until complete until a complete solution for 275882 is found.

Add the following lines to your /boot/loader.conf
|
|
to override the built-in FreeBSD re(4) driver.
|
|
|
|
if_re_load="YES"
|
|
if_re_name="/boot/modules/if_re.ko"
|

|
|
By default, the size of allocated mbufs is enough
|
|
to receive the largest Ethernet frame supported
|
|
by the card. If your memory is highly fragmented,
|
|
trying to allocate contiguous pages (more than
|
|
4096 bytes) may result in driver hangs.
|
|
For this reason the value is tunable at boot time,
|
|
e.g. if you don't need Jumbo frames you can lower
|
|
the memory requirements and avoid this issue with:
|
|
|
|
hw.re.max_rx_mbuf_sz="2048"
|
|
