Unsupported AFBR-700SDZ SFP+ module with 82598EB 10-Gigabit AF Dual Port Network Connection

[Boris Kochergin]

I had originally sent this to the freebsdnic at mailbox.intel.com address
mentioned in the ixgbe(4) man page, but it unfortunately bounced.

I am running FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE/amd64 and have a "82598EB 10-Gigabit AF
Dual Port Network Connection" controller. I've been trying to get a
working SFP+ module for it to do 10-GBASE-SR. The
/usr/src/sys/dev/ixgbe/README file, on line 100, says that the following
SFP+ module has "received some testing":

Avago SFP+ SR bailed, 10g single rate AFBR-700SDZ

I bought one, inserted into the controller, booted up, and was greeted
by this message:

ix0: port 0xecc0-0xecdf mem
0xdf340000-0xdf35ffff,0xdf380000-0xdf3bffff,0xdf338000-0xdf33bfff irq 38
at device 0.0 on pci6
ix0: Using MSIX interrupts with 9 vectors
ix0: RX Descriptors exceed system mbuf max, using default instead!
ix0: Unsupported SFP+ Module

0xdf360000-0xdf37ffff,0xdf3c0000-0xdf3fffff,0xdf33c000-0xdf33ffff irq 45
at device 0.1 on pci6

Anyone know why this happened? Can you point me to a complete list of
SFP+ modules that will work with the controller? Let me know if you need
any other information.

Thanks.
