Re: [Bugme-new] [Bug 42132] New: Support BCM5750M in tg3

flat view

From: Francesco Piccinno <hidden>
Date: 2011-09-02 09:20:51

The patch did not apply cleanly. BTW I have figured out an alternative
method. I modified by hand pci_ids.h and tg3.c files. The device seems
to work now.

The output of ethtool -i eth0 gives me:
driver: tg3
version: 3.119
firmware-version:
bus-info: 0000:08:00.0
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: yes
supports-eeprom-access: yes
supports-register-dump: yes

Messages produced by the driver:

Yes.  Sorry.  Please revert that patch.  If you really had a bcm5750,
you'd need to revert another patch too, but let's see where we stand
before going down that road.

The only message I get regarding the firmware is the following:

[51503.038205] pci 0000:08:00.0: vpd r/w failed.  This is likely a
firmware bug on this device.  Contact the card vendor for a firmware
update.

Unfortunately I can not post the output of ethtool since the interface
is not available. Shall I recompile the tg3 module with the proper
patch and post the output?

It's showing up on lspci as a PCIe device, so it can't be the 5750M.
The bcm5750M is a pci device.

I'm wondering if bootcode is failing. ??Do you see any messages in your
syslogs that say "No firmware running"?

Can you post the output of 'ethtool -i ethX'?

I have a notebook (HP TC4400) which has a BCM5750 ethernet card inside. The
ouput of lspci is:

08:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5750M
Gigabit Ethernet [14e4:167c]

Commit 67b284d476bcb3d100e946da23d6cf9acfd0465c removed the support for this
device.
67b284d476bcb3d100 says "These devices were never released to the public".
quoted
I wish to have the support for this network card back again. Thanks!
oops ;)
Really? ??All the TC4400 documentation I find says it uses a bcm5753M on a
PCIe bus. ??Can you post the full output of 'lspci -vvv -s 08:00.0' ?
