In the U-Boot log, the names of the Ethernet interfaces are printed in the format <name>@<interface type> , for example, DPMAC2@xgmii . DPMAC is a DPAA2 object that identifies the physical interface. For Linux, in TinyDistro as well as in Ubuntu distribution, by default, only one MAC is enabled as a standard Kernel Ethernet Interface. This interface is named eth0 by default (or eth1 if PCI Express network interface card is discovered first). For details regarding creation of a DPAA2 network interface (DPNI) in Linux, refer to LS1088ARDB/LS1088ARDB-PB - How to create a DPAA2 network interface (DPNI) in Linux The table below shows the mapping of Ethernet port names appearing on the chassis front panel with the port names in U-Boot and Linux for LS1088ARDB. Port name on chassis Port name in U-Boot Port name in Linux (tinyDistro and Ubuntu userland) Description ETH0 DPMAC2@xgmii not enabled by default XFI optical interface ETH1 DPMAC1@xgmii not enabled by default XFI copper interface ETH2 DPMAC7@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface ETH3 DPMAC8@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface ETH4 DPMAC9@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface ETH5 DPMAC10@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface ETH6 DPMAC3@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface ETH7 DPMAC4@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface ETH8 DPMAC5@qsgmii eth0 by default (or eth1 if PCI Express network interface card is discovered first) QSGMII copper interface ETH9 DPMAC6@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface The table below shows the mapping of Ethernet port names appearing on the chassis front panel with the port names in U-Boot and Linux for LS1088ARDB-PB. Port name on chassis Port name in U-Boot Port name in Linux ( tinyDistro and Ubuntu userland) Description DPMAC1 DPMAC1@xgmii not enabled by default XFI optical interface DPMAC2 DPMAC2@xgmii not enabled by default XFI copper interface DPMAC3 DPMAC3@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface DPMAC4 DPMAC4@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface DPMAC5 DPMAC5@qsgmii eth0 by default (or eth1 if PCI Express network interface card is discovered first) QSGMII copper interface DPMAC6 DPMAC6@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface DPMAC7 DPMAC7@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface DPMAC8 DPMAC8@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface DPMAC9 DPMAC9@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface DPMAC10 DPMAC10@qsgmii not enabled by default QSGMII copper interface
