>Description:
sys/dev/pci/if_bge.c doesn't compile woth options DEBUG. The KASSERT macro is called with 1 args (FreeBSD convention).
NetBSD only take 1 arg.
When HW checksumming is enabled it is impossible to establish a TCP connection to ssh. The SYN packets are not
answered. ICMP echo is answered.
Disabling HW checksumming makes it work again.
The previous version of if_bge.c was working ok.
Seems that some things are still not clean in the last fix to if_bge.c.
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt to connect via TCP to a bge box with hw checksumming enabled.
>Fix:
Workaround: disable HW checksumming for now.
