[P.A. Semi] Does the ethernet interface work on your Electra, Chitra, Nemo, and Athena board?

Hi Michael,

Thanks a lot for your answer. We tested some vanilla mainline 4.3 
kernels on an Electra reference board. Additionally we tested some 
patched 4.3 kernels on our Nemo boards.

It would be really fantastic, if you could fix the problem.

Cheers,

Christian

Hi all,

We tested some 4.3 kernels on a P.A. Semi reference board. Ultimately,
ethernet does not work, though on the reference board, the interface is
detected, gets link, but will not pass any packets/traffic.

Somewhere in the source code of the commit "'powerpc-4.3-1' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux (2015-09-03
23:41:38 (GMT)" is the problem.

Could you please help us to solve the problem?
Hi Christian,

Unfortunately there is no source code in that commit, it's just a merge. And
your bisect run found that the very first commit in that merge was OK:

[390fd5929f52bdfb9dfcc03820041ba556780f4a] cxl: Set up and enable PSL
git bisect good
So I'm not convinced your bisect run was correct, sorry.

My pasemi is booting OK, but I haven't had time to test the network. If you
remind me next week I will make sure network is working on my board.

Are you testing your board with your additional patch as well? Or just vanilla
mainline?

cheers
