Subject: kernel question ???



Hello all,

Sorry for this, maybe stupid, question but I more often compile kernels
on Linux platforms.

So, in linux world, there is a very simple way to compile devices as
modules and I am now trying to do this same feature in my FreeBSD kernel
( 7.0-current ) for all network devices ( all /boot/kernel/if_xxx.so )
that I would like to (un)load when it is necessary.

I don't know if it is the right way to do it but I removed all network
devices from my kernel config file (see below) but I get some problems
when compiling the kernel (see below).

Could you please help me to solve this problem ?

You took out device miibus
Yet you left in these nic devices which require miibus, as stated right in the comment:


# USB Ethernet, requires miibus
device aue # ADMtek USB Ethernet
device axe # ASIX Electronics USB Ethernet
device cdce # Generic USB over Ethernet
device cue # CATC USB Ethernet
device kue # Kawasaki LSI USB Ethernet
device rue # RealTek RTL8150 USB Ethernet


Either take _all_ nic devices out and load what you want as modules in /boot/loader.conf
(The modules still get built when you remove the devices from the kernel config.)


/boot/loader.conf:
miibus_load="YES"
if_fxp_load="YES"

Or put "device miibus" back in, along with any nic devices you'll actually use.

I think it's even possible to load the nic driver as a module even when you are pxe booting via that nic.
