Do you have a quick description on how to enable it again for those
who wan't to tackle this?
"They" should add if_igb.c into Jamfile and try to compile the driver,
and fix all undeclared stuff in the freebsd_compat. :-) As far as I
remember the if_em.c was the only one used in our ipro1000 driver from
the beginning. Currently I have added if_lem.c for cards called in FBSD
8 "legacy" (all ones emulated by Virtual Box that where moved from "em"
to "lem"). So this if_igb was anyway never utilized by our ipro1000
driver. From other side I have no such hardware to test it in case of
successful porting:
"The igb driver provides support for PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet
adapters
based on the Intel 82575 and 82576 Ethernet controller chips. The
driver
supports Transmit/Receive checksum offload and Jumbo Frames.
Furthermore
it supports TCP segmentation offload (TSO) on all adapters."
I have tested current version of ipro1000 both with "lem" and with "em"
supported NICs.
By the way, there are "ipro1000_beos" version files flying in the
src/add-ons/network/ipro1000 folder. Some time they should be purged, I
think.
