[9fans] i82547EI; bad EEPROM checksum

[visof]

hello
i'm using 9atom on my pc but i have a problem with ethernet card, i
have these lines when the system start
 igbe: SPI EEPROM access not implemented
igbe: bad EEPROM checksum - 0x0000
igbe: SPI EEPROM access not implemented

i tried to compile the kernel and try again but with the same error
pci | grep net  ===> 2.1.0: net 02.00.00 8086/1019 10 0:e0100000
131072 2:000040 01 32
grep 1019 /sys/src/9/pc/etherigbe.c  ====>    i82547ei = (0x1019<<16)|
0x8086,

is there anyone have the same problem ? and how can i fix that if
possible

Thanks

Hello !

I have gotten  "igbe: bad EEPROM checksum" message on my IBM (Lenovo) T61
Tablet.
I've took a look at NetBSD kernel sources (if_wm.c), that recommends to read
EEPROM twice :)

Comment from if_wm.c:

/*
		 * Read twice again because some PCI-e parts fail the
		 * first check due to the link being in sleep state.
		 */


Maybe helpful :)

No.

I've done a dirty hack (temporary workaround), this helped me to solve
problem with connectivity.
This was temporary work and I've lost all changes. :(

now that this has leaked onto the list,
the intel manual seems to indicate that the
check that's being tripped is using an undefined
bit in the register.*

i think the first change to try would be to comment
out the check, so 

static int
at93c46r(Ctlr* ctlr)
{
	ushort sum;
	char rop[20];
	int addr, areq, bits, data, eecd, i;

	eecd = csr32r(ctlr, Eecd);
	if(eecd & Spi){
		print("igbe: SPI EEPROM access not implemented\n");
//		return 0;
	}
[...]
