Hi,

i have a rl8139, but special edition from peppercon with some extra
features:

- watchdog (i do not need and do not use it)
- a hardware reset by a magic LAN packet (like Wake on LAN)

Networking works with standard FreeBSD driver, but not the reset
feature.  I only use the reset feature, nothing else.

Some peppercon developer was very kind and made a patch for if_rl.c
and if_rleg.h. This Patch works about 1 year. But now (with current)
there are many driver changes and patch fails at some hunks.  Last
known working patch was with files from may.

Unfortunately i have not nearly enough knowledge to fix this. So i
have to search someone (is anybody here, who is able to take a look
at the patch?) or ask the peppercon developer a second time. But
maybe there is an opportunity to get this support permanent to
FreeBSD?

bye and thanks for hopefully some answers :),
Andy
