QEMU ppce500 machine can dynamically instantiate an eTSEC device if "-device eTSEC" is given to QEMU.
This series updates the fixed-link ethernet PHY driver as well as the Freescale eTSEC driver to support the QEMU ppce500 board.
Based-on: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/?series=230985
This series is avaiable at u-boot-x86/eTSEC for testing.
Azure results say there are several ARM boards fail to build due to size overflow with this series. https://dev.azure.com/bmeng/GitHub/_build/results?buildId=334&view=resul...
How do we handle this?
The one I looked at, imx6dl_mamoj seems to be 0xbc5 over the limit. That's a very large growth, indicating that your series is doing something odd, perhaps?
I suppose you know this, but you can use:
buildman -b try imx6dl_mamoj buildman -b try -sS
to see which commit creates the size growth, and -B to see which functions.
Thanks, so it's caused by this patch: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/20210302153451.19440-17-bmen...

But this patch is a bug fix. I am not sure how we can avoid the size increase.
I'd love to hear there's a clever fix we can do here for SPL, but in the likely case there isn't, this might get stuck until the LTO series that was posted today goes in as well, as that will give us some size back. I assume this was a bug fix your series needed and not something you noticed while in the code.
The size increase is so enormous that I'd argue for a new Kconfig that you can select for the board that needs it.
