imx6sx enet2 issue

pavansingpatil — Tue, 03 Jul 2018 11:12:51 GMT

Hi All,

We are using i.MX6SX on our custom boards and we have configured enet2 in RGMII mode and using TI DP83822 phy. With below pinmux and device tree initialization we see issue with mdc clock. The phy is configured in 2.5 Mhz/10 Mbit mode we see TX and RX clk are 2.5 Mhz. The ti phy driver is enabled in the kernel.

The issue we see is on ENET2_MDC there is no clock on this line and it's always low. I doubt there is no data transmission happening on MDIO line because of mdc clock issue and mdio probed is failing to idenitify the phy.

kernel is nxp patched 4.9.11_1.0.0-ga.

on terminal it gives the below output.

ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.10
ifconfig: SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device

there is no transmission on rx,tx lines.

&fec2 {
   pinctrl-names = "default";
   pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_enet2>;
   phy-mode = "rgmii";
   phy-reset-gpios = <&gpio2 8 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
   phy-handle = <&ethphy1>;
   phy-supply = <&reg_vref_3v3>;
   fsl,magic-packet;
   status = "okay";
   mdio {
       #address-cells = <1>;
       #size-cells = <0>;

       ethphy1: ethernet-phy@1 {
            reg = <1>;
       };
   };
};

any information on this would be very helpful. Thanks.

Hi pavansingpatil

is it working in uboot, this can be tested using CONFIG_FEC_ENET_DEV in

ubooot/include/configs/mx6sxsabresd.h

uboot-imx.git - Freescale i.MX u-boot Tree

Best regards
igor

Thanks for reply igor.

I added below define and it's working in u-boot, i could measure mdc 2.3MHz on scope.

#define CONFIG_FEC_MXC_MDIO_BASE ENET2_BASE_ADDR

but the line goes low once kernel is loaded
