Hi Jerome

We met, on some platform, problems that, in a glance,
look similar to yours and those were related to EEE and
LPI interrupts.
We had a subset of patches to disable EEE but, indeed,
if you disable from PHY, the STMMAC will never act
the protocol. We can provide you these patches... I will
ask Alex to decide how to proceed.
There is a issue on lpi timer and I have another patch to
share but I am not sure this can help.

In sum, if EEE is a suspected problem we can share and review
some patches.
In the meantime, I will read again the thread just to see if
there is something I am missing.

Regards
Peppe

Hi all,


on my device this results in:
[0xc9410018] = 0x2000000
[0xc9410030] = 0x0
[0xc941003c] = 0x0
[0xc9411000] = 0x1100802
[0xc9411018] = 0x2202006
[0xc9411028] = 0x0

maybe someone else could try the command from above on his device
(running the original Amlogic kernel).

those registers have the same value on an original image from
hardkernel:

Linux odroid64 3.14.65-65 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat May 28
02:50:51 BRT 2016 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux


please also state if ethernet is working properly on the original
kernel (and preferably which device/board this is).

yes, the ethernet works flawless in 100 and 1000 Mbit/s on the 3.14
kernel.

Andre, the 3.14 kernel you are talking, is it this one ? :
https://github.com/hardkernel/linux/tree/odroidc2-3.14.y

Because in drivers/net/phy/realtek.c, they disable EEE, but
also 1000Base-T Full Duplex advertisement ?

+       /* disable 1000m adv*/
+       val = phy_read(phydev, 0x9);
+       phy_write(phydev, 0x9, val&(~(1<<9)));

If this is the kernel you are running, you should not be able to have
ethernet at 1000MB/s ? Or is it in half duplex mode ?


I can now confirm that both 100 and 1000 Mbit/s do not work properly
on the 4.8/integ branch. the network connection is interrupted after
some outbound traffic. it can be recovered by running a ifdown/ifup
which restarts dhclient, which I think is able to somehow reset the
interface.

Anything I can help to debug the issue further ?

Regards,

 André
