Re: mpc8540 SK board FEC not work!

I think there are two possibilities: i) You are probing the wrong phy address. Since the MDIO line is pulled high you get a phyID of 0xffffffff. Try changing the phy address probed. From the source it looks like this is done in the BIOS. If this fails scope the MDIO/MDC bus. ii) The phy id has changed between the 88E1101 and the 88E1111. If this is the case you may get away with just modifying phy_info_marvell.name and phy_info_marvell.phy_id_mask. But you may have to add a new phy_info struct to deal with the new phy if there are any incompatibilities between the new and old phys, or if the phy_ids differ in more than just their lower bits. Or maybe both.... Alex On Mon, 25 Jul 2005 19:16:50 +0800 "KylongMu" [off-list ref] wrote:
Hello, team
I'm testing the 2.6.13-rc3 kernel on my board, all is work well
except
the FEC.
Board type: PQ3SK REVB
Kernel : 2.6.13-rc3
toolchain : ELDK 3.1.1
PHY type : Marvell 88E1111S
Compile with "make mpc8540ads_defconfig", change with nothing.
download uImage file into my board and boot with it, all is ok ! But when
I config the eth0 , it can't work , same with eth1, both of them are
Giga-eth,
but eth2 is work well, and eth2 is a 10/100-eth.
I checked the 8540ADS's hardware message , it's use 88E1011 PHY
not 88E1111 PHY . And I checked the kernel code " driver/net/gianfar_phy.c"
it takes 88E1011 and 88E1111 as same PHY , so I think this is not a hardware
problem, and my board work well with a 2.4.18 DEMO kernel.
Here is the output message of 2.6.13-rc3 kernel:
PuffLinux:root$ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.77
eth0: PHY is Generic MII (ffffffff)
If the PHY config is correct it will recognize my PHY ID, but here
is a
wrong ID number ffffffff .
Please help me solve this problem!
Thanks a lot!
