Hello Clement Koller,
      Thanks for your response.
 
We have both Marvel & Intel's phy in our 8541 board.
 
As of now in the kernel we have just enabled support for Marvel's PHY.
  
It doesnt even  come to the point of detecting  the PHY ID (88E1011S). It just reads the PHy Address(Board specific) correclty.
 
Even before it gets into gianfar_phy.c it hangs at gianfar.c.
 
This is the screen dump.

And after this it just gets into the loop where it looks if the 'Gracious receive and Gracious stop' bits of the IEVENT register are set.

In our case it doesnt get set and so the kernel hangs at that point.
 
Thanks

Hi, Junita!

What PHYs do you use on the 8541?
Check if they are supported in gianfar_phy or if they
can be used with Generic MII
Check if you get the the phy_id is correct.
Some more debug-output would be nice.

I had to add Intel LXT971 support to the gianfar_phy
for my platform which is a 100MBit MII PHY only.

Re: Help needed Linux-2.6 - MPC8541

[Andy Fleming]

Hi Junita,

We encountered a similar error when bringing up 83xx support, and it =20
was due to the platform code not properly passing in the register space =20=

of the TSEC driver.  The graceful stop check is the first point in the =20=

driver that the registers actually have to contain sane data (the =20
driver stops the controller before doing anything with the registers), =20=

so it would make sense that, if the address for the registers were =20
wrong, this spot would get stuck.  Investigate the platform init code, =20=

is my suggestion.

Sorry to disturbed you. I find your question in the http://ozlabs.org mail list.
Have you fixed the bug in gianfar_phy.c? 
tempval = gfar_read(&priv-> regs-> dmactrl);
tempval |= (DMACTRL_GRS | DMACTRL_GTS);
gfar_write(&priv-> regs-> dmactrl, tempval);

while (!(gfar_read(&priv-> regs-> ievent) & (IEVENT_GRSC | IEVENT_GTSC)))
cpu_relax();

/* Reset MAC layer */
gfar_write(&priv-> regs-> maccfg1, MACCFG1_SOFT_RESET);

I buy a RMC-G8500 card from GDAtech, I try to build linux-2.6.13.4 from kernel.org and meet the same problems as you had. I test the same code on freescale 8540_ADS board, it is good.Can you share some infomation of your progress?

Thank you!
Jian

I'm a bit confused by the statement above.  The code you present is  
from gianfar.c, and is certainly not a bug.  It is possible you are  
using an older version of the code, which has a bug, which is fixed  
by adding these lines above the code you show:

         tempval = gfar_read(&priv->regs->dmactrl);
         tempval &= ~(DMACTRL_GRS | DMACTRL_GTS);
         gfar_write(&priv->regs->dmactrl, tempval);

This fixes a problem where setting GRS and GTS when they're already  
set doesn't initiate the graceful stop.  But if you are using 2.6.13,  
you should have this fix.  I suspect that, like I told Junita, you  
need to make sure the platform code has the right CCSRBAR value set up.

I'm not familiar with this card.  Are you sure there's support for it  
in your source tree?

   1. The code hangs exaclty at the point where it looks for the 'graceful transmit/receive' bits set in the IEVENT register. (IEVENT_GRSC , IEVENT_GTSC) .
                    File         - (linux-2.6/drivers/net/gianfar.c)
                    Function  - static int gfar_probe(struct device *device) ;
 
 In that ,we  write Graceful Receive Stop and Graceful  Transmit Stop, and then wait until the corresponding bits  in IEVENT indicate the stops have completed. 
 
  This never happens and hence hangs at the 'while' loop inside that function.
 
2. We are using Linux-2.6.11
 
Here's the serial output dump  with a few debug messages.

Also, what version of 2.6 are you using? The board interface for the 
driver changed recently to support the new driver model.

Help needed Linux-2.6 - MPC8541

[Junita Ajith]

Hi
   We are trying to port Linux-2.6 for our custom
MPC8541 board.

   We have a TSEC and an FEC in the board.

With the "Networking Support" disabled in the Kernel,
the board boots up fine and gets to the prompt.

   But with the "Networking Support" enabled in the
kernel  the board hangs where it identifies the PHY,
inspite of giving the corrct PHY ID.


   Any help is greatly appreciated.

PS:
    We have linux-2.4 ported for the same board and so
 taking that as reference trying to port Linux-2.6 ,
 but havent succeeded yet.

 Thanks
 Junita
