[bug report] sunxi: H6: no ethernet on Orange Pi One Plus
Hey!
I'm trying to bake Linux images for the Orange Pi One Plus using Yocto. Everything works fine, except for Ethernet.
On the u-boot prompt:
=> dhcp No ethernet found.
After adding:
CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUNXI=y CONFIG_SUN8I_EMAC=y
to configs/orangepi_one_plus_defconfig, I started seeing this error:
=> dhcp sun8i_emac_eth_start: Timeout
I saw this other bug report but I couldn't really understand what has been made to fix this issue [1].
More context here [2].

Can you attempt to change the TF-A target from sun50i_h6 to sun50i_h6_no_pmic?
This at least seems to have been the fix accepted into the Debian packaging for the Orange Pi One Plus.
I have one around somewhere, I could hook it up and do some more investigation if that doesn't help you.
(PS: We should probably update the U-Boot documentation if that suggestion does work.)

Does it help if you revert 4f0278dac56a658ef1e0967fec0bb95372a875bd ?
I added on CC the folks involved in the previous report.

OH! I believe I discovered something I overlooked:
On arch/arm/dts/sun50i-h6-orangepi-one-plus.dts:
reg_gmac_3v3: gmac-3v3 { compatible = "regulator-fixed"; regulator-name = "vcc-gmac-3v3"; regulator-min-microvolt = <3300000>; regulator-max-microvolt = <3300000>; startup-delay-us = <100000>; enable-active-high; gpio = <&pio 3 6 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; /* PD6 */ vin-supply = <®_aldo2>; };
After I connected GPIO 3 to GPIO 6, the Ethernet LED turned on!
I still see:

And
Net: PHY reset timed out eth0: ethernet@5020000

Okay, I completely misunderstood this... and I lost the combination that turned the LED on :(
It seems that PD6 is not exposed on the GPIO header [1]. It is defined on the FBGA on the pin map session of the datasheet [2]. So, I don't believe I need to short the pins to get it working, but somehow it at least powered on the Ethernet port. I wish I remember the combination.

[2] https://linux-sunxi.org/images/5/5c/Allwinner_H6_V200_Datasheet_V1.1.pdf
UPDATE: I did it!
On u-boot shell:
gpio set pd6
then dhcp command works :). However, it doesn't get an IP and with static IP pinging doesn't work.
It seems to be able to send BOOTP broadcasts but it doesn't get an IP...
Combination was:
u-boot config: CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUNXI=y CONFIG_SUN8I_EMAC=y
tfa config:
SUNXI_SETUP_REGULATORS=1 (or just unset this)
I still see:
=> dhcp sun8i_emac_eth_start: Timeout

Good point. You should pass the following options:
CONFIG_DM_REGULATOR=y CONFIG_DM_REGULATOR_FIXED=y
so that the GPIO3_6 turns on by default and then you would not need to run the "gpio set pd6" command.

That didn't work. I still had to enable with "gpio set pd6". Also, when it gets to the kernel, ethernet shuts down. I also don't see the device in my router, so I believe even though eth0 is up, something may not be working yet.

One thing I realized is that on the defconfig and on Yocto, SPL is expected, so if I disable CONFIG_SPL, things break. I'm thinking about using it because CONFIG_DM_REGULATOR didn't seem to work?
I also decided to use CONFIG_SPL_DM_REGULATOR, but it doesn't compile :(
These are the configs I added
# This one I believe is needed for EMAC CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUNXI=y # This one is needed by the DM and SPL_DM configs CONFIG_DM=y # These two seem to allow me to build with SPL CONFIG_SPL_BUILD=y CONFIG_SPL_POWER=y # This one breaks the build CONFIG_SPL_DM=y # Keeping these two commented until I fix SPL_DM #CONFIG_SPL_DM_REGULATOR=y #CONFIG_SPL_DM_REGULATOR_FIXED=y
I also had to patch drivers/mmc/sunxi_mmc.c to add an if macro on the only gpio_request_by_name it has, inspired by [1]. Will send a patch once I figure out why SPL is breaking.
Maybe it has to do with SPL memory? These are the errors I see when I enable CONFIG_SPL_DM:
aarch64-poky-linux-ld.bfd: address 0x28e60 of u-boot-spl section `.text' is not within region `.sram' aarch64-poky-linux-ld.bfd: u-boot-spl section `.rodata' will not fit in region `.sram'

I don't see them without CONFIG_SPL_DM.
This person [2] mentions in another similar issue that SPL is very tight in memory btw.

so that the GPIO3_6 turns on by default and then you would not need to run the "gpio set pd6" command.
That didn't work. I still had to enable with "gpio set pd6". Also, when it gets to the kernel, ethernet shuts down. I also don't see the device in my router, so I believe even though eth0 is up, something may not be working yet.
then dhcp command works :). However, it doesn't get an IP and with static IP pinging doesn't work.

Hey!
I'm trying to bake Linux images for the Orange Pi One Plus using Yocto. Everything works fine, except for Ethernet.
On the u-boot prompt:
=> dhcp No ethernet found.
After adding:
CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUNXI=y CONFIG_SUN8I_EMAC=y
to configs/orangepi_one_plus_defconfig, I started seeing this error:

I saw this other bug report but I couldn't really understand what has been made to fix this issue [1].

Just wanted to share a summary of my findings about the ethernet on the Orange Pi One Plus (Allwinner H6).
1. PMIC should not be disabled. I tested and if I disable PMIC, MAC never turns on, even if I force the gpio PD6 pin to be on. When building tfa, use SUNXI_SETUP_REGULATORS=1 or just don't pass it.
2. These configs are needed on configs/orangepi_one_plus_defconfig
CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUNXI=y CONFIG_SUN8I_EMAC=y
3. With this config, there's this strange behavior where ethernet is only detected after a crash:
# Fresh boot Net: Could not get PHY for ethernet@5020000: addr 1 No ethernet found.
# Forcing the board to crash => mii dump "Synchronous Abort" handler, esr 0x96000044
Code: 32000021 d5033fbf 91408013 f9481a60 (b9004801) Resetting CPU ...
resetting ...
# Reboot Net: eth0: ethernet@5020000
4. I'm testing CONFIG_MACPWR="PD6" and that successfully enabled MAC on u-boot (I see the LEDs turning on). However, I see the behaviour from #3 but crash-rebooting doesn't seem to enable ethernet...

Quick update
Just wanted to share a summary of my findings about the ethernet on the Orange Pi One Plus (Allwinner H6).
- PMIC should not be disabled. I tested and if I disable PMIC, MAC
never turns on, even if I force the gpio PD6 pin to be on. When building tfa, use SUNXI_SETUP_REGULATORS=1 or just don't pass it.
- These configs are needed on configs/orangepi_one_plus_defconfig
CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUNXI=y
CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUNXI may not be needed in this context, I don't know why I mentioned it in the first place.
CONFIG_SUN8I_EMAC=y
- With this config, there's this strange behavior where ethernet is
only detected after a crash:
# Fresh boot Net: Could not get PHY for ethernet@5020000: addr 1 No ethernet found.
# Forcing the board to crash => mii dump "Synchronous Abort" handler, esr 0x96000044
Code: 32000021 d5033fbf 91408013 f9481a60 (b9004801) Resetting CPU ...
resetting ...
# Reboot Net: eth0: ethernet@5020000
- I'm testing CONFIG_MACPWR="PD6" and that successfully enabled MAC on
u-boot (I see the LEDs turning on). However, I see the behaviour from #3 but crash-rebooting doesn't seem to enable ethernet...
According to this patch [1], we should use DM driver, so I believe CONFIG_MACPWR is deprecated.
I then added these configs:
# Required by regulator CONFIG_DM=y # Required by regulator fixed CONFIG_DM_REGULATOR=y # Required by the ethernet's definition on the dts CONFIG_DM_REGULATOR_FIXED=y # This adds a handy regulator cmd on u-boot CONFIG_CMD_REGULATOR=y
With the regulator command, I turned it on and saw the LEDs turning on and dhcp "trying" to work (it doesn't get an IP though).
=> regulator list | Device | regulator-name | Parent | vcc5v | vcc-5v | root_driver | gmac-3v3 | vcc-gmac-3v3 | root_driver => regulator dev vcc-gmac-3v3 dev: vcc-gmac-3v3 @ gmac-3v3 => regulator enable => dhcp BOOTP broadcast 1 BOOTP broadcast 2
For some reason, vcc-gmac-3v3 is disabled by default, and it only seems to start manually for me. It sometimes start when I try a mii dump or a dhcp, but there's a lot of phy errors that make it unusable.
