ethtool support for P2040

[gouravjain]

Hello all,

in my custom board, which is based on P2040RDB, by default "ethtool" utility is not available. So, I downloaded from "ethtool-4.18 - utility for controlling network drivers and hardware ". 

Could any one pls tell me how to cross compile for P2040 chipset??

Thanks,

Gourav

NXP offers SDK 2.0 Linux BSP for the P2041RDB board. This SDK provides standalone toolchain.

See the Section 3.3.7 of SDK v2.0-1703 documentation for standalone toolchain using:

https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/supporting-information/QORIQ-SDK-2.0-IC-REV0.pdf

Have a great day,
Pavel Chubakov

Hello Pavel Chubakov,

Thanks for addressing my question.

Actually i have downlaoded and cross compiled seperatly. 

while running ethtool at target i observed very wiered thing. 

1) after assigning ip to interface, (while ethernet cable is connected)

  root@hmd-modem::~# ./ethtool fm1-gb3
Settings for fm1-gb3:
Supported ports: [ MII ]
Supported link modes: 1000baseT/Full
Supported pause frame use: No
Supports auto-negotiation: No
Advertised link modes: 1000baseT/Full
Advertised pause frame use: No
Advertised auto-negotiation: No
Speed: 1000Mb/s
Duplex: Full
Port: MII
PHYAD: 7
Transceiver: external
Auto-negotiation: off
Current message level: 0xffffffff (-1)
drv probe link timer ifdown ifup rx_err tx_err tx_q ueued intr tx_done rx_status pktdata hw wol 0xffff8000
Link detected: yes

2) even all the messages are same while removing cable.

  root@hmd-modem::~# ./ethtool fm1-gb3
Settings for fm1-gb3:
Supported ports: [ MII ]
Supported link modes: 1000baseT/Full
Supported pause frame use: No
Supports auto-negotiation: No
Advertised link modes: 1000baseT/Full

drv probe link timer ifdown ifup rx_err tx_err tx_q ueued intr tx_done rx_status pktdata hw wol 0xffff8000
Link detected: yes

Link detected must be : no when cable is removed.

Could you pls let me know what could be the issue??

thanks,

Gourav
