Hi all-
I've been struggeling with the ethact setting in U-Boot: I want U-Boot to load from eTSEC0 on our board, but it always comes up with ethact = UEC0 or FSL UEC0 in older versions.
As ethact is not persistent, my only workaround so far was to change net/eth.c so that at all occasions, where ethact is set, it is set to eTSEC0 - during development, this was OK for me, but now I am cleaning up!
What's the intended/desired function of ethact, and how should it be initialized? Even using CONFIG_ETHPRIME has no effect.
From my understanding of something named "ethact", I would expect, that it finds the (first) active ethernet device - active in a sense of connected or usable or whatever.
Although eTSEC0 is the only connected port on our device, it comes up with UEC0 - so, even if this interface in "on" in some way, this does not help here.
How can I force ethact to be eTSEC0 (or whichever I want), without tampering U-Boot base files?
Thanks Matthias
