dwmac eth0 failed to enable PTP reference clock: -EIO with SDK BSP43 release on RDB3

Hi,

I tested SDK BSP43 release on RDB3 board, and I found that, the ptp reference clock enabled failed with the following message:

But if the pfe enabled, the failure message will disappear. I checked source codes, but it seems relate with atf codes, not the kernel codes.

Would you please help to check this issue?

Thanks,

Hello, @hittzt

Thanks for the post.

From my opinion, the GMAC PTP clock may use the corresponding clock of PFE, which caused such prints:

Hi @chenyin_h,

Thanks for your reply.

I know the point you said, but it seems not the reason of the issue.

Your image is the hardware relationship, not the codes's.

And the root cause seems in the following commits of arm-trusted-firmware codes:

If revert these two commits, then the issue will be disappeare.

So would you please help to check it again and give a fix or workaroud?

And I will keep working to find a way to fix it too.

Thanks,

Hello, @hittzt

Thanks for your detailed description on the issue, sure, I will also check on it.

May I know if there are any actual impact on your project? maybe you need to use the 1588 of GMAC0 without PFE enabled?

Hi @chenyin_h,

Oh, yes, the pfe is a optional feature currently, I may use only gmac0's 1588 of the board without the pfe feature.

Thanks,

Hello, @hittzt

Thanks for your patience.

With further checking with internal teams, it is confirmed to be a bug and is planned to be fixed in the following BSPs.
