Need help building module for broadcom 5719
-
Are you able to use all of the ports on the card ? On dell R420, I was having DMA timeouts up until patched the kernel to increase the ata request timeout.
-
At the moment I use 3 ports without any DMA timeouts. Can try the 4th port tomorrow, when I have patched one more line.
4 Ports no problems :-)
mbuf is constant -
Perfect. on my local tests, i see about 984Mbps of throughput on a single port wan. And ~1.94 Gbps on 2 ports bridged on the lan side.
Ok. Is there any possibility to see what were the issues in operation with the previous backport? If we can verify those , i can send a pull request to repo for these patches.

Sounds great.

Unfortunately I have no intel network card to test.

Hello,
I'm interested to have a pfsense release with BCM5719 working. How can I do since the current release doesn't seems to be compatible ?
Thanks,

Hi,
sorry for the delay. You can compile a pfsense iso with the diffs from tuyan (http://www.4inarow.net/pfsense/bge.zip). Works for me. -
Hi,
Is there a way to upload your compiled iso ? I don't have the environment to recompile the iso and i'm not sure how to do it :-(
I can provide an FTP or smth if you want…
Many thanks.

Have fun :)

Hi Santa Shikka, :)
Oh many many thanks. I'll try this out asap !

Thank you very much for this image.
Now i can install pfsense on our Dell R320 Servers.
The only Problem i have, that i cant update to a snapshot version 2.1.1
I hope the broadcom drivers will be included in another release.
Kind Regards
Boris
PS.: Sorry for the poor English :-)

Hi! I'm also having this issue with Broadcom BCM5719/BCM5720. I would like to try shikka's build, but link is broken.
Could someone please upload it again? :D
Thank you!! -
If you are experimenting, why not try a 2.2 alpha snapshot, and report any problems you have, rather than backporting a driver to 2.1.x? FreeBSD 10.0 used in pfSense 2.2 should have the newer bge chipsets supported.
Also, even if someone does have the iso you referenced, a link to a user-compiled iso will not last long in this forum, given the recent crackdowns on pfSense development in the wild.
-
Unfortunatelly I'm stucked on pfSense 2.1 right now. :-\
It would be great if someone could at least republish tuyan's patches, since the given link (http://www.4inarow.net/pfsense/bge.zip) is broken… :P
-
Finally! :D
I was able to build BCM5719/BCM5720 drivers (both 32-bit and 64-bit) using pfsense-tools RELENG_2_1 patches, no need for any additional patches. If someone need those drivers, just PM me ;) -
I know this is off topic. But does this device support inline IPS?
Also do you know where can I get updated firmware for this device.
Thanks in advance!
