Hi,



After booting, my MPC8641 based board keeps printing =93Trying 10/=20
HALF=94 for ever. I am unable to use the Ethernet, even though there =20=

are interrupts occuring. Based on /proc/interrupts, both tx and rx =20
interrupt count is increasing, and zero count for enet_error =20
interrupt.



I think this is coming from drivers/net/phy/phy.c during =20
autonegotiation. However, I am not sure how to take care of this. =20
Appreciate some pointers.

Hm.  That's a bit strange.  What kind of PHY are you using?  The PHY =20
layer acts like that if auto-negotiation fails and it couldn't =20
establish a link using any other method.

Some things to double-check:

* Are your etsec interrupts correct in your dts.  Shouldn't be an =20
issue, but if you copied them from the wrong place, or used an out-of-=20=

date dts, the numbers could be wrong

* Are your PHY interrupts correct in your dts.  If the PHY interrupts =20=

are wrong, the PHY Lib might never discover that a link was established
