Re: MACSEC and if_msk.c

[Richard PALO <richard.palo%free.fr@localhost>]

So far I get the following:
# ifconfig -m msk0
msk0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        address: 18:a9:05:dd:f6:07

an extract from dmesg shows (http://www.netbsd.org/~richard/dmesg.txt):

~/src/netbsd$ grep msk dmesg.txt
mskc0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0, Yukon-2 Extreme rev. B0 (0x2): ioapic0

Unfortunately, still no external access (ping et al) so far ...

I haven't tinkered with the chksum bits yet nor, for what the Yukon-II 
Extreme family is concerned, the V2 DESC bits...
Seems some useful info found perusing the linux sky2 driver, though.

I noticed somebody else using amd64 had some issues (35711), I'm curious 
if I should first get i386 going before testing amd64.

concerning MACSEC, I noticed this in a freebsd commit
(from http://www.squish.net/pipermail/owc/2009-April/001292.html):
