[U-Boot-Users] smc 9111 driver

[Gupta, Kshitij]

hi,
  I am facing a very unique problem with smc9111 driver.  I am able to send
packets over the wire and I am able to receive all broadcast packets.  But I
am able to receive only broadcast packets.  If any packet with destination
as my MAC address I am not able to see it. 
Has anyone else seen this problem before ?? 
regards
-kshitij

Which version of U-Boot did you use? There have been some bugs with the
SMSC driver recently. On our homepage you'll find our latest -ptx
patches which have the fixes. Or use the current U-Boot CVS which should
also be fine.

Are you sure that you are using a legal MAC address?

hi,
	I am using a packet generator on the host to generate udp packets
with destination as the MAC address of my machine (doubly checked).   Using
the same pkt generator if i just change the destination to ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
then the driver accepts it.

Which MAC address are you using?

A classic ethernet mixup is the bit ordering of the MAC address.  The 
ethernet sends the data LSB-first so, when you set your MAC, you have to 
bit-reverse the bytes from what you would normally think.  This is horribly 
confusing.  Suggestions: Sniff your transmissions with ethereal and see if 
the MAC address ethereal is showing is what you expect to see.  Bit-reverse 
the MAC you program in and see if it starts working.

hi,
	thanx for the help.  I got it up and running. It was a h/w issue.
Since I am using the smc9111.c for smc9196 I had to change some register
settings to get it up.  I will post it as a different driver like smc9196.c
whe I submit it back to opensource.
regards
