RE: Xilinx hard TEMAC

Hi David,

The hardware I have to support is the Hard TEMAC on the LocalLink Bus.
It is my understanding that this is the TEMAC builtin to the FX parts,
not one that is created in the FPGA.

That's right. The hard Temac is a built-in hard core in virtex 4 FPGA. 

Is anyone else working to support that configuration ? I think that is
basically the same as the GRSD TEMAC.
Is it sane to try to adapt the soft TEMAC patch from the list ?

I am working on that. But I am not so experienced and still working. :)

I actually started trying to get the posted TEMAC patch working but that
quickly went off the rails - I presumed because the hard and soft
TEMAC's are just too different, or because the xilinx_edk really does
not support the hard TEMAC.

I don't think so. I think the hard and soft cores are similar. I have 
included the enet drive in Linux 2.4 and it works well. Now I am including 
the Temac in 2.6 and have not see the result. 

Regardless. I need to get a driver working, and I am not looking to
duplicate effort.

I am doing that. So we can share our experience. 

Regards
Ming
