--- Comment #5 from Koen Martens <gmc@metro.cx> ---
Not sure what the fix is, and how 171744 is relevant (it's about the wake
command, if I understand correctly).

Just wanted to chime in. I have a machine with a bge-driven card for which =
WOL
worked perfectly with 10.3-RELEASE. I activated it with 'ifconfig bge0
wol_magic' and then used the wakeonlan utility on a linux (ubuntu 16.04)
machine to wake up the freebsd machine.

Yesterday I upgraded to 11.1-RELEASE (something I have put off for ages bec=
ause
I was afraid something would break, but with the EOL coming up I decided to
take the risk), and WOL just stopped working.

It isn't even advertised anymore as a capability in ifconfig:

# ifconfig -m bge0
bge0: flags=3D8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
=20=20=20=20=20=20=20

=20=20=20=20=20=20=20
capabilities=3D8009b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,LINK=

        ether 00:1e:c9:5b:75:11
        hwaddr 00:1e:c9:5b:75:11

        nd6 options=3D29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

        status: active
        supported media:
                media autoselect mediaopt flowcontrol
                media autoselect
                media 1000baseT mediaopt full-duplex,master
                media 1000baseT mediaopt full-duplex
                media 1000baseT mediaopt master
                media 1000baseT
                media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex
                media 100baseTX
                media 10baseT/UTP mediaopt full-duplex
                media 10baseT/UTP

Needless to say, 'ifconfig bge0 wol_magic' doesn't enable it anymore either.
