The picoseconds to register value divisor(ps_to_regval) should be 60 and not 200. Linux has KSZ9031_PS_TO_REG defined to be 60 as well. 60 is the correct divisor because the 4-bit skew values are defined from 0x0000(-420ps) to 0xffff(480ps), increments of 60.
For example, a DTS skew value of 420, represents 0ps delay, which should be 0x7. With the previous divisor of 200, it would result in 0x2, which represents a -300ps delay.
With this patch, ethernet on the SoCFPGA DE0 Atlas is now able to work with 1Gb ethernet.
Is this expected to make any difference on the Altera socdk? Both with and without the patch, it takes a very long time (sometimes minutes) to negotiate a link, but once it does it works fine.
The Altera socdk uses a different PHY, KSZ9021, so no, this patch will not affect that hardware.
I'll check out your link issues on the socdk when I get a chance.
