Now,
if i used:
# opnsense-update -kr 17.1-re
# /usr/local/etc/rc.reboot

next build will be updated with 17.1-re or 17.1.1 kernel ?

I think you did answer this question. :)

I'll provide a kernel for 17.1.1-re tomorrow.

FWIW, if you don't have issues with 17.1, you don't strictly need the 17.1.1 kernel.

Just put 17.1-re on one of my ci323 boxes that seemed to do the watchdog timeout thing on a weekly basis. Lets see if it lasts longer now.

17.1 upgrade lost the console with my VGA monitor though - neither VGA or EFI works. But i'd rather live without a console than without Internet :-)

take a look at System>Setting>Administration - there is a setting named primary console - you might want to switch to VGA console and reboot

I don't see kernel-17.1.1-re-amd64.txz was this rolled into 17.1.1?

Well, as i said - neither VGA or EFI works - where do you suppose I changed from one to another?
 
But I don't actually want to bring new topics to this thread. If we can get rid of those pesky re0 watchdog timeouts on Zotac ci323, I will be over the moon and don't care that much about the console. Or I will drag an HDMI monitor to that particular room and try that.

its not just the Zotac, its one or more Realtek lan chips on the whole FREEBSD platform.

I said I did not have the time to do it then. ;)

But now it's up for amd64:

# opnsense-update -kr 17.1.1-re

Fantastic, I just had time today to upgrade to 17.1.1 the upgrade was successful on my Zotac ci323.

I then ran #opnsense-update -kr 17.1.1-re which also ran successfully for me.

I am now up and running on the new version and will watch closely for any further timeouts.

I just want to say thank you, this is a random issue with this hardware that can be frustrating when it happens. You could go weeks with no issues or you could have it start timing out a few times in a day.

My fingers are crossed that the driver update resolves the issue. I will report back when I know more.

17.1-re has been up for 5 days now without a single watchdog timeout in the logs.
Even the occasional non-fatal timeout i used to have from time to time are gone now.

I vote for this realtek driver to be included in the next release.

Realtek released the FreeBSD driver version 1.93 with built-in support for FreeBSD 11.0. All the more reason to go forward, I've queued it up for 17.1.2.

Thanks to everyone for the discussion and testing!


Cheers,
Franco

I know this is closed but I just wanted to report back. It has been 8 days for me and I don't have a single time out in my logs. Thank you!!!
