RMII configuration with KSZ8081 and iMX6DL

hiromiyokoo — Wed, 20 Apr 2016 07:49:39 GMT

Hello,

I need some help configuring the ethernet. On my board I have a KSZ8081RNBIA in RMII and an iMX6DL.

I'm using "core-image-minimal", I configured the kernel (3.10.17-r0) to load the proper driver and I added in the device tree this code:

fec: ethernet@02188000 {

compatible = "fsl,imx6q-fec";

reg = <0x02188000 0x4000>;

interrupts = <0 118 0x04 0 119 0x04>;

clocks = <&clks 117>, <&clks 117>, <&clks 190>;

clock-names = "ipg", "ahb", "ptp";

status = "disabled";

};

&fec {

pinctrl-names = "default";

pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_enet_1>;

phy-mode = "rmii";

phy-handle = <&ethphy1>;

status = "okay";

mdio {

#address-cells = <1>;

#size-cells = <0>;

ethphy1: ethernet-phy@0 {

compatible = "micrel,ksz8081";

device_type = "ethernet-phy";

reg = <0>;

};

enet {

pinctrl_enet_1: enetgrp-1 {

fsl,pins = <

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_TXD0__ENET_TX_DATA0 0x1b0b0

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_TXD1__ENET_TX_DATA1 0x1b0b0

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_TX_EN__ENET_TX_EN 0x1b0b0

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_RXD0__ENET_RX_DATA0 0x1b0b0

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_RXD1__ENET_RX_DATA1 0x1b0b0

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_CRS_DV__ENET_RX_EN 0x1b0b0

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_MDC__ENET_MDC 0x1b0b0

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_MDIO__ENET_MDIO 0x1b0b0

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_RX_ER__ENET_RX_ER 0x1b0b0

MX6QDL_PAD_ENET_REF_CLK__GPIO1_IO23 0x80000000 // Connected to interrupt from KSZ8081

MX6QDL_PAD_GPIO_16__ENET_REF_CLK 0x4001b0a8

};

But when I try to configure the connection (ifconfig ...) and then I try to send a ping it hungs (I have to press ctrl+c).

In the kernel log I find this line:

Configuring network interfaces... fec 2188000.ethernet eth0: Freescale FEC PHY driver (Micrel KSZ8081 or KSZ8091) (mii_bus:phy_addr=2188000.ethernet:00, irq=-1)

Is there some problem in the configuration? Should I add something about the interrupt connection to the device tree? I've already tried to add something but with no success.

Please help me,

Thank you in advance

Hi Roberto

one can look at solution provided for KSZ8031 with i.MX6S

RMII interface on i.MX6 Solo

Best regards

Hi Igor,

I looked at the solution you linked but I don't have clock problems.

Looking at the Micrel driver in Linux I found that it doesn't use the device tree (in this version of Linux), so this part of the device tree is useless:

ethphy1: ethernet-phy@0 {

compatible = "micrel,ksz8081";

device_type = "ethernet-phy";

reg = <0>;

}

I don't know what to do...

I finally solved the issue, adding:

int regval = phy_read(phydev, MII_KSZPHY_OMSO);

regval &= 0xFC;

regval |= KSZPHY_OMSO_RMII_OVERRIDE;

phy_write(phydev, MII_KSZPHY_OMSO, regval);

kszphy_config_init

micrel.c

Even if there are still rx frame errors to be inspected.
