mx31pdk board don't have external PHY, but it wrongly pull up MDIO. So, add flag SMSC911X_USE_INTERPHY to force using internal PHY.This patch is outdated. Linux-next already contains a SMSC911X_FORCE_INTERNAL_PHY for exactly this reason. SaschaHi Sascha, Sorry I didn't check linux-next. Do I need always to create mxc patches based on linux-nex?
No, but you should keep an eye on it to check for changes.
And I don't know why the smsc911x patch commited on Feb 1 on linux-next still not be merged to mainline?
Have a look at Documentation/development-process in the Kernel sources. Sascha -- Pengutronix e.K. | | Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | Peiner Str. 6-8, 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 |
