            Bug ID: 207633
           Summary: bce0: Discard frame w/o leading ethernet header (len 0
                    pkt len 0) - pfSense 2.2.6 and 2.3 Beta
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-CURRENT
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern

I recently my physical pfSesne install to a virtual machine. I have tried b=
oth
pfSense 2.5.6 and 2.6 in kvm and am passing two physical interfaces through,
using a Proxmox (debian) host. Each interface is a BCM5709, in a Dell Power=
Edge
R710.

I have found that in order to work around the issue, I have to disconnect t=
he
ethernet cables and allow pfSense to fully boot to the login prompt before
reconnecting them, or else all interfaces spam discard frame errors with le=
n 0
and pkt klen 0. Occasionally, even this workaround fails.

This is problematic in the case of a power event, as it means I will need t=
o be
physically present for the network to come back up. While I realize I'm
thankfully not using this in an enterprise environment, it would be nice to=
 fix
this issue if possible.
