re(4) needs adding to GENERIC(-MORELLO) and/or PNP info #1150

Neither are present so out of the box on a Morello board (or N1SDP) you have no NIC and need to kldload it.

jrtc27 commented 3 years ago

(NIC is a RealTek RTL8111GS, which FreeBSD calls "RealTek 8168/8111 B/C/CP/D/DP/E/F/G PCIe Gigabit Ethernet")

I would just add 'device re' in arm64 GENERIC upstream and we can loop it back in (or cherry-pick it for the release if we haven't caught up by then)

jrtc27 commented 3 years ago

Yeah, you'll want it for netbooting anyway (well, there's re_load=YES in loader.conf, but that's still not an it-just-works-out-of-the-box experience).
