  I got a new [to me] system recently, a Dell PE 1950.  It has two bce =
parts on the motherboard that identify as:

bce#: <QLogic NetXtreme II BCM5708 1000Base-T (B2)>

  The OS I installed and kernel I'm running are from a download of a =
10.1 STABLE ISO, r281235, April 7, 2015.

  I had gone on to check out a newer stable from subversion, and build a =
custom kernel, but when I booted that one I got a bce0 that didn't seem =
to work, and kept emitting:

bce0: /usr/src/sys/dev/bce/if_bce.c(7869): Watchdog timeout occurred, =
resetting!
bce0: link state changed to DOWN
bce0: link state changed to UP

  So, I fell back.  But I've since noticed that even the original kernel =
seems to do this after booting.  I'm not yet running any notable amount =
of traffic through the system, but intend to make it an edge router, so =
certainly will be.

  Is there any sort of issue noted in the bce driver in recent =
days/weeks/months?  Are other folks seeing this diagnostic/error?

  I'll do a little more testing and see if I'm seeing it more or less =
often, but I know that in at least some cases the interface has flapped =
like this after boot for long enough that I was unable to get connected =
remotely, and resorted to a console login to reboot.

                                                - Chris
