FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE Realtek 8168/81111 Driver

[Vladimir Vladimir]

Hi all, 

I've got an issue with new mother board ASUS P8Z77-M PRO. 

My FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE can't set up Network interface for integrated NIC Realtek 8168/81111.

I have tried FreeBSD-8.2, and FreeBSD-9.0
I' downloaded new distributions from freebsd.org and  tried boot from them but result the same. FreeBSD couldn't setup re0 interface.

in the dmesg output :

re0: <RealTek 8168/8111 B/C/CP/D/DP/E PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> port 0xd000-0xd0ff mem 0xdc104000-0xdc104fff,0xdc100000-0xdc103fff irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci2
re0: Using 1 MSI-X message
re0: turning off MSI enable bit.
re0: Chip rev. 0x2c800000
re0: MAC rev. 0x00000000

so looks like FreeBSD detected NIC, but ifconfig shows loop interface only

lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384
	options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM>
	inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 
	inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xa 
	inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
	nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

if i try command

ifconfig re0 create
ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE2: Invalid argument

at the same time Ubuntu works perfect on this mother board, so there aren't any hardware issues

In the official ASUS documentation for motherboard ASUS P8Z77-M PRO it's got  NIC  Realtek® 8111F, 1 x Gigabit LAN Controller(s)

May be re(4) driver not updated for this mother board yet?.

If anybody faced of such issue., let me know.

Thanks Vlad.
