[U-Boot-Users] Ethernet support for LAN91C111

[U-Boot-Users] Ethernet support for LAN91C111

[navin karnam]

Hi,

I have pxa255 board and one Ethernet controller LAN91C111-Nu (10/100 Base T)
attached to it.
Does u-boot code supports this type of Ethernet controller? Can anybody tell
what are the changes that need to be done to make this Ethernet controller
work? If not how do i had the support for it?

I believe the LNA91C111 is software compatible with the LAN91xx, but
don't know for sure.  If this is true, you should be able to use the
driver called 'smc9111.c'.  Be sure to get the latest version of the
code base from git.denx.de.

regards,
Ben

Hi Naveen,

The driver support the SMSC chip 9111 on any platform if you have a 32 bit
wide databus. For other bus widths you need to customize the driver.

Thanks & Regards,
Shinose.

The driver supports both 32-bit and 16-bit, and probably 8-bit too, 
although nobody's tried it and reported results.
