Re: bge0: EEPROM read timed

Hi.

I got this on today's RELENG_6 with Broadcom BCM5722 A0, ASIC rev. 0xa200..

From dmesg (bge related):

bge0: <Broadcom BCM5722 A0, ASIC rev. 0xa200> mem
0xe8400000-0xe840ffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci2
bge0: firmware handshake timed out, found 0x4b657654
bge0: firmware handshake timed out, found 0x4b657654
bge0: EEPROM read timed out
bge0: failed to read EEPROM
device_attach: bge0 attach returned 6
bge1: <Broadcom BCM5703 B0, ASIC rev. 0x1100> mem
0xe8600000-0xe860ffff irq 21 at device 1.0 on pci3
miibus0: <MII bus> on bge1
brgphy0: <BCM5703 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> on miibus0
brgphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT,
1000baseT-FDX, auto
bge1: Ethernet address: 00:21:5e:4d:05:c8


any hints?

P.S. I see EEPROM timeout fixes were already merged to RELENG_6 (I
have post-fix version certainly).
May that issue be somehow related?


I guess it's a regression. Below are my speculations.

I tried to build on 6.2-R the bge(4) sources checked from later RELENG_6
just after BCM5722 support (from if_bgereg.h 1.36.2.11/ if_bge.c1.91.2.26)
in order to backport BCM5722 support into 6.2-R. After some tweaks it
was built, so..

What I got in dmesg (after native statically built bge(4) replacement
in boot loader prompt) is:
FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p8 #13: Thu Feb 19 14:52:30 MSK 2009
[..snip..]
bgex0: <Broadcom BCM5722 A0, ASIC rev. 0xa200> mem
0xe8400000-0xe840ffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci2
bgex0: Ethernet address: 00:21:5e:4d:05:c7

Whoohoo..

So, here it even reached macaddr designation. (and going to panic at
nfs boot time (probably
to different locking scheme between 6.2 and 6.4, but it's an another story)).
