sethdlc returning invalid argument error

[m_syed_ahmed]

Hi,

I am working in LS1021-ATWR board with QorIQ SDK. I am verifying  HDLC interface. I downloaded sethdlc source from  https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/net/hdlc/ and build it for arm using arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc sethdlc.c -o sethdlc command. when i run it in the board, am getting invalid argument error

root@ls1021-atwr:~# ifconfig hdlc0
hdlc0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00

root@ls1021-atwr:~# ./sethdlc hdlc0 hdlc

 Can someone help me to resolve this issue?

I have verified HDLC with QorIQ SDK 2.0 1703 images on LS1021ATWR, it worked normally, please refer to the following procedure.

Please configure Linux Kernel as the following.

Device Drivers --->
SOC (System On Chip) specific Drivers --->
[*] Freescale QUICC Engine (QE) Support
[*] Network device support --->
[*] Wan interfaces support --->
     <*> Generic HDLC layer
     <*> Raw HDLC support
     <*> Freescale QUICC Engine HDLC support

On the target board:

root@ls1021atwr:~# ./sethdlc hdlc0 hdlc
root@ls1021atwr:~# ifconfig hdlc0 192.168.0.1 up
hdlc0: Carrier detected

root@ls1021atwr:~# ./sethdlc hdlc0
hdlc0: interface e1 clock type unknown slotmap 10101010010001011111010000000001
protocol hdlc nrz crc16-itu

The attached are uImage, ls1021a-twr.dtb and sethdlc, you could use them to do verification on your target board.
