Re: [U-Boot-Users] eth interface (motfec) is not woring with u-boot1.1.3
Hi Ken,Wolfgang Thanks for the Reply
I have updated the my configuration for the CONFIG_ETHADDR and CONFIG_IPADDR But still getting same "TX timeout" error. from function static int fec_send(struct eth_device* dev, volatile void *packet, int length) in defined in the cpu/mpc8xx/fec..c
----- while ((rtx->txbd[txIdx].cbd_sc & BD_ENET_TX_READY) && (j<TOUT_LOOP)) { #if defined(CONFIG_ICU862) udelay(10); #else udelay(100); #endif j++; } if (j>=TOUT_LOOP) { printf("TX timeout..testing.\n"); } -----
When I am running VxWorks on the same board LEDs at RJ45 connector ( Ethernet interfaces) on the board are glowing but when u-boot is up these LED are off. It seems that ETH interface is not up yet.
Which board can be used as the reference board for the MPC870.
Thanks Vijay

Actually, 00:11:22:33:44:55 is a perfectly legal (universally administered) MAC address:
You are of course right - I was too terse. Thanks for adding the missing details.
No doubt this is what you were referring to when you said "00:11:22:33:44:55 is not a legal MAC address". A better, easy to remember locally administered MAC address would be 02:03:04:05:06:07.
ACK - or use tools/genethaddr to generate a random locally administered MAC address.

Perhaps, your Ethernet driver is not properly configured. Recheck these definitions in your include/configs/tc870.h file:
#define CONFIG_NET_MULTI 1 /* the only way to get the FEC in */ #define FEC_ENET 1 /* eth.c needs it that way... */ #define CONFIG_FEC_ENET 1 #undef CFG_DISCOVER_PHY #define CONFIG_MII 1 #define CONFIG_RMII 1 /* use RMII interface */
I would pay special attention to CFG_DISCOVER_PHY. Maybe the wrong Phy is being configured?
Which board can be used as the reference board for the MPC870.
Maybe someone with experience with Ethernet on the MPC870 can answer?
I don't have a tc870 board or an MPC870, so this is the last time you'll hear from me on this topic.
Good luck!
Sincerely,
Ken Fuchs
