LS1043ARDB Builtin Network Driver - QNX Neutrino 7.0

[FredS]

I'm currently working with a #LS1043A-RDB, using Neutrino 7.0 RTOS

I want to use the builtin network controller, but I don't have the driver.

QNX support and the System Builder File of the BSP referred me to NXP...

I searched the board page, nowhere to be found.

Where can I get the driver?

Thanks

NXP provides Linux SDK for the customers, you could refer to the Network driver provided in Linux.

$ git clone https://source.codeaurora.org/external/qoriq/qoriq-components/linux.git

$ cd linux

$ git checkout LSDK-21.08 -b LSDK-21.08

Please refer to drivers in the following folder.

drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/sdk_dpaa/

drivers/staging/fsl_qbman/

drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/sdk_fman/

Please refer to the following Kernel options.

CONFIG_FSL_SDK_DPAA_ETH=y

CONFIG_FSL_SDK_DPA=y

CONFIG_FSL_SDK_FMAN=y

CONFIG_FSL_SDK_BMAN=y

CONFIG_FSL_BMAN_CONFIG=y

CONFIG_FSL_SDK_QMAN=y

CONFIG_FSL_QMAN_CONFIG=y

Hi @yipingwang,

Thanks for the reply.

I'll have a look at it. I am scared it won't do the trick because linux drivers run  in kernel space and there is no such things in Neutrino. I hope I am wrong.

After a week I got my answer form a support ticket.

To evaluate the driver on a eval board, I will have to spend near 12k$US.

I consider the NXP QNX BSP incomplete since it does not allow usage of onboard features.

I won't complete my evaluation; what a waste of time.

Please, don't say a board is compatible unless the BSP have basic feature such as ethernet connection...
