[U-Boot] ping failed; host 192.168.1.101 is not alive

Hi http://old.nabble.com/file/p34608548/uboot-log.rtf uboot-log.rtf
I am using beagle board C4 with zippy expansion board. I am able to do NFS at the kernel level. I want to o tftp at the u-boot level. my beagle board is connected to the host via cross ethernet cable. the phy chip is enc28j60. when i ping the host it says host not alive.
i have attached the env variables
please help

your MAC address is wrong. Please read the FAQ entry here [1] and fix your MAC address in the ethaddr environment variable and try again.
Thanks, Anatolij

hi Anatolij I tried your suggestion I generate a macid from uboot/tools/gen_eth_addr. Still the ping says "host not alive"
I have attached the uboot log and also the wireshark snapshot on the host
host : 192.168.1.101 development board : 192.168.1.100

Your host sees a pereectly fine ARP request, which is proof that the network is bsicly operational, but it never sees any ICMP message. Is there any change that your host is running a firewall which is blocking such requests?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

hi
No I dont have any firewall running. I have enabled to receive all packets []
i am using the uboot version 2011.03 with the following changes. But i think it will not affect the ping functionality.
Any help. I will try putting more logs and pointing the issue.
attached is the patch

Hi
As per your suggestion I tried 2012.10 Still the result is same. But it shows receive length is zero.
I have attached the logs I have attached the changes to make ethernet work.
As I am new to this forum I hope you said me to reply to this mailing list.

Hi
I analyzed the code and put some prints to find the below mentioned behavior. The ARP packet is being received by ENC28J60 but when it reaches the software pkt format is not correct. A 0 is being appended to the packet.
After analysis I found this errata mentioned in ENC28J60 errata sheet is not applied for the initial case (for the first packet). Later on it is fine. I have made the changes and I need to test it today night after office.
Module: Memory (Ethernet Buffer) The receive hardware may corrupt the circular receive buffer (including the Next Packet Pointer and receive status vector fields) when an even value is programmed into the ERXRDPTH:ERXRDPTL registers. Work around Ensure that only odd addresses are written to the ERXRDPT registers. Assuming that ERXND contains an odd value, many applications can derive a suitable value to write to ERXRDPT by subtracting one from the Next Packet Pointer (a value always ensured to be even because of hardware padding) and then compensating for a potential ERXST to ERXND wraparound. Assuming that the receive buffer area does not span the 1FFFh to 0000h memory boundary, the logic in Example 1 will ensure that ERXRDPT is programmed with an odd value
Are you aware of any such change required in the ENC28J60 uboot code. Kindly let me know if anybody has faced such issue

Hi Anatolij and Wolfgang Denk
I have solved the problem. There are some "must" changes in omap3_spi.c to make it working. Otherwise it will not be behave in the expected way. There are also few changes in enc28j60.c file to make it more stable. I have attached the snapshot of both ping and tftp.
Please let me know if I can submit the changes as patch because they are required for proper working of the omap3 SPI. http://old.nabble.com/file/p34659079/ping_success.cap ping_success.cap

Okay, thanks for reporting.
There are also few changes in enc28j60.c file to make it more stable. I have attached the snapshot of both ping and tftp.
I remember using enc28j60 driver in U-Boot a few years ago and it worked without issues, however on imx31 based system with different SPI controller.
Please let me know if I can submit the changes as patch because they are required for proper working of the omap3 SPI.
You can submit patches if you wish. Some notes on how to submit patches can be found here [1].
Thanks, Anatolij

Hi Anatolij and Wolfgang Denk
I will submit the patches soon. I am reading the links to submit patches.
The OMAP3 SPI patch is required for proper functioning of that subsytem. I studied the linux driver and the TRM to arrive at this changes.
I wonder how these changes were not incorporated by anyone.

Hi
I have submitted the patch http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/199895/
It required little more fixes in OMAP3 SPI code. Now its working like a charm There are no changes need to be done in enc28j60 code.
