Subject: [PATCH] arm64: dts: rockchip: limit rk3328-rock64 gmac speed to 100MBit for now
Date: Wed,  6 Dec 2017 01:14:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171206001446.26810-1-heiko@sntech.de> (raw)

It looks like either the current kernel or the hardware has reliability
issues when the gmac is actually running at 1GBit. In my test-case
it is not able to boot on a nfsroot at this speed, as the system
will always lose the connection to the nfs-server during boot, before
reaching any login prompt and not recover from this.

So until this is solved, limit the speed to 100MBit as with this the
nfsroot survives stress tests like an apt-get upgrade without problems.
