[Xen-users] Problem with Tigon3 network card in Dom0

[Angel de Vicente <angelv@xxxxxx>]

Hi,

I've been fighting with this for a couple of days, so I think it is about time
that I ask for help.

I'm trying to install Xen 3.0.4-1 on Ubuntu 6.10 server for amd 64 in a Dell 
Precision 390,
and I thought this could be easy (there is a wiki page for a similar setting at
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenOnUbuntu64). 

The network card in this machine is (as reported by dmesg when booted with
standard Ubuntu install):

[   59.434219] tg3.c:v3.59.1 (August 25, 2006)
[   59.434235] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:05:00.0[A] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> 
IRQ 177
[   59.434243] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:05:00.0 to 64
[   59.459777] eth0: Tigon3 [partno(BCM95754) rev b002 PHY(5787)] (PCI Express) 
10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet 00:13:72:34:30:d1
[   59.459782] eth0: RXcsums[1] LinkChgREG[1] MIirq[1] ASF[0] Split[0] 
WireSpeed[1] TSOcap[1] 
[   59.459785] eth0: dma_rwctrl[76180000] dma_mask[64-bit]


But when I try to boot with the Xen kernel, there is no message about the card
in dmesg and it just seems that it has vanished...

I have tried changing the configuration for the kernel and adding the modules
that I thought would be necessary for the driver to be loaded, but to no
avail. For reference, I include below the changes I have made to the .config
file from the original kernel .config file (some of the changes were to
recognize the SAS drive, which was giving trouble at the beginning but it is OK
now).

The system boots OK, but if from the console I do ifconfig I obtain errors like:

SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth0: Error while getting interface flags: no such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device

Does anybody have a similar experience or knows where I could get help on this? 

Thanks,
Ángel de Vicente
