 Hi,
 
        From: yamt@mwd.biglobe.ne.jp
     Subject: kern/29113: re(4) reports "unknown subtype"
       Date : Tue, 25 Jan 2005 02:02:01 +0000 (UTC)
  Message-ID: <20050125020201.22C0163B844@narn.netbsd.org>
 
 $ 	check RTK_ENABLED in re_ifmedia_sts().
 
 I checked rtk driver with ukphy. 
 rtk has same code, but media is NONE when NIC is down. 
 So I think that problem is rgephy.c rather than rtl8169.c.
 
 I attached a patch.
 After Applied it,I test below:
 
 [kanaoka@idea]% sudo /sbin/ifconfig re0 | grep media
         media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT full-duplex)
 [kanaoka@idea]% sudo /sbin/ifconfig re0 down
 [kanaoka@idea]% sudo /sbin/ifconfig re0 | grep media
         media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
