Hi all,
I did several tests on this issue with amlogic's S905 SoC (Synopsys MAC
- user ID: 0x11, Synopsys ID: 0x37.)
With the OdroidC2 (PHY Realtek RTL8211F), EEE is on by default.
Just before launching iperf3, here are the ethtool stats regarding LPI:
irq_tx_path_in_lpi_mode_n: 6
irq_tx_path_exit_lpi_mode_n: 5
irq_rx_path_in_lpi_mode_n: 76
irq_rx_path_exit_lpi_mode_n: 75
phy_eee_wakeup_error_n: 0
Sending data with iperf usually works for little while (between 0 and
10s)
# iperf3 -c 192.168.1.170 -p12345

iperf3: interrupt - the client has terminated
iperf3 does not exit ant the link seems completely broken. We cannot
send or receive until the interface is brought down then up again.
Here are the LPI related stats after the test:
irq_tx_path_in_lpi_mode_n: 48
irq_tx_path_exit_lpi_mode_n: 48
irq_rx_path_in_lpi_mode_n: 325
irq_rx_path_exit_lpi_mode_n: 325
phy_eee_wakeup_error_n: 0
Like Martin, I tried playing around with eee in stmmac, but I could not
improve the situation. Then I tried disabling EEE advertisement on the
PHY (patch attached). With this patch, iperf3 runs nicely for me.
This is what the folks of FreeBSD have done for the Same MAC/PHY
combination [0]
On the P200 Board (PHY Micrel KSZ9031), EEE is off by default. There is
no problem on this board right now. I tried to force the activation of
EEE on this board and ended up in the same situation as the OdroidC2
(link broken). The stats were a bit different though:
irq_tx_path_in_lpi_mode_n: 28
irq_tx_path_exit_lpi_mode_n: 28
irq_rx_path_in_lpi_mode_n: 408
irq_rx_path_exit_lpi_mode_n: 408
phy_eee_wakeup_error_n: 5440
To everybody having similar issue with their OdroidC2, could you try
the attached patch and let us know if it changes anything for you ?
Peppe, Alexandre,
What is your view on this ? I'm not sure that removing EEE
advertisement is the right way to address the problem ?
Could it be an issue stmmac ?
If there is any other information / test which would help understand
the issue, please let me know.
Cheers
Jerome
