            Bug ID: 282805
           Summary: Support for Aquantia AQC113 and AQC113C Ethernet
                    Controllers
           Product: Base System
           Version: 14.1-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: Harry0259@163.com

**Description:**
This is a feature request to add driver support for the Aquantia AQC113 and
AQC113C Ethernet controllers in FreeBSD. These controllers are widely used in
modern high-performance networking scenarios and would be a valuable addition
to FreeBSD’s hardware support.

**Current Behavior:**
- The devices are detected but marked as `no driver attached` in `pciconf -lv`
output.
- The `aquantia-atlantic-kmod` driver does not currently support the AQC113
family.

Example `pciconf -lv` output:
```
none3@pci0:7:0:0: class=0x020000 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x1d6a device=0x14c0
subvendor=0x1d6a subdevice=0x0001
    vendor     = 'Aquantia Corp.'
    device     = 'AQC113C NBase-T/IEEE 802.3an Ethernet Controller [Marvell
Scalable mGig]'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet
```

**Expected Behavior:**
The AQC113 and AQC113C devices should be recognized and fully functional in
FreeBSD, with support for features such as NBase-T and 10GBase-T.

**Additional Context:**
- **Device Details:**
- Vendor: Aquantia Corp. (Marvell)
- PCI IDs:
    - AQC113: `0x04c0`
    - AQC113C: `0x14c0`
- **Reference Drivers:**
- OpenBSD’s `aq` driver supports AQC113/AQC113C
([source](https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/sys/dev/pci/if_aq_pci.c)).
- Linux’s `atlantic` driver includes support for AQC113.
- **Use Cases:**
High-performance networking in NAS systems, workstations, and enterprise
servers.

**System Details:**
- FreeBSD Version: [Your FreeBSD version]
- Hardware Details: AQC113/AQC113C detected via `pciconf -lv` and `dmesg` but
with no driver attached.

**Severity:**
Feature request.

Thank you for considering this enhancement to FreeBSD’s hardware support.
Adding this functionality would significantly benefit users deploying FreeBSD
in high-performance networking environments.
