[U-Boot-Users] IXP4XX NPE Support

[Michael Sprauve]

Hello,
  I am trying to use the latest build, that includes support for the Intel NPE ethenet driver. But I am getting build errors occuring in the include file IxEthDB.h. I am wondering if anyone else has attempted and been successful in using this new feature.

Please use a shorter line length, < 70 characters or so.

There are still licensing issues with the NPE code, which  forced  us
to  remove  one  file  which  is needed for a succesful build. We are
working on sorting out the licensing oroblems.

Why is an average signature file longer than an average Perl script??

Yes, 
I noticed the one file missing (IxNpeMicrocode.c) but
was able to include my local copy in the build
(assuming that your version is same), but it seems
like the build is choking on the include file used by
npe.c.


Also I apologize for sending HTML before, normally my
messages are plain text

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for the file, the build works again, so now I
am moving to the next steps, it appears that the
software is not recognizing the NPE, so I would
imagine that there are some vars that need to be added
to the "include/configs/ixdp425.h" to make the port
available.

I think you just have to set the MAC address environment variables (ethaddr & 
eth1addr) and reset the board. This should do it.
