when you netcat finished, it cannot ping, right? at this point, would
you like to add some printk at RX and TX?
i want to see the target board have send arp packet, or have receive
arp reply packet.

you can add such funtion to print the packet buffer:

void print_mem(unsigned char *p,u32 len, u8 * s)
{
	u32 i;
	printk("  %s   ram addr = %x , data len = %x",s, p, len);

	for (i=0;i<len;i++) {
		if (0==i%16) {
			printk("\n  0x%02x : ",(p+i));
		}
		printk("%02x",*(u8 *)(p+i));
		printk(" ");
	}
	printk("\n\n");
}

for TX: ks8695_start_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *ndev)

=>
    	ksp->tx_ring[buff_n].status =
		cpu_to_le32(TDES_IC | TDES_FS | TDES_LS |
			    (skb->len & TDES_TBS));

	print_mem(skb->data, skb->len, "tx");

	wmb();

for RX: static int ks8695_rx(struct ks8695_priv *ksp, int budget)
=>
  			/* Retrieve the sk_buff */
			skb = ksp->rx_buffers[buff_n].skb;

			print_mem(skb->data, skb->len, "rx");

			/* Clear it from the ring */
			ksp->rx_buffers[buff_n].skb = NULL;
