RE: plb_temac, ML403, linux 2.4.26, EDK 7.1

Hi,

So, right now I am trying to get the plb_temac to compile and get errors 

about the defines XPAR_XTEMAC_* within the linux directories 
../drivers/net/xilinx_enet.  I see that the edk gets the defines within the 
xparameters.h file of the xapp902 project.  I also see that my 
C:\EDK\sw\ThirdParty\bsp\linux_mvl31_v1_01_a\drivers don't have anything 
for a plb_temac.

Yes. In MV3.1, there is no gige enet supported. You should include the 
patch for TEMAC by yourself.

Q:    Is my error related to an incorrect setup of the linux or with the 

EDK?

Try to check your xparameters.h file and find if there are the definations.

Q:    t is stated that the plb_temac drivers are in EDK 8.1.  Can I stick
with 7.1 or must I ugprade?

I don't think that's the problem of 7.1, if you can make sure you use a 
correct core for TEMAC and generated correct BSP files.

Q:    Where in the linux tree should I look for the xtemac
stuff?  Is this what the EDK pushes on to the tree or is it released
within the MVL distro?

Try to find the patch for TEMAC in this list. 

Q    Based on posts by David and Ming, it
appears that I must use xilinx_gige to get up to gigE speeds.  Will the
plb_temac support this data rate and, if so, is this a transparent
support or do I need to go the route suggested to Ming and
overwrite files in xilinx_enet?

Temac is tri-mode including 1000M/s speed. sorry that i cannot understand 
this question very well.

Ming
