P2040: Ethernet works in UBoot but not in SDK 1.4 (likely a device tree issue)

Referring to this URL I think I have similar problem:

https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2011-October/093359.html

Ethernet works ok in UBoot (as FM1@DTSEC4) on my device but not in Linux (using SDK 1.4). My device tree is based on the one from p2041rdb.dts (everything relating to Ethernet is copied).

What magic numbers do I need from UBoot into my device tree so that it will work in Linux also?

I have the following issues:

- ping does not work normally

- if I press Enter on serial port then ping to device works for a second

- after a while, maybe a minute or so, the serial port gets locked up

Don't know if this helps:

cat /proc/interrupts

After bring up the device and try ping the QMan portal 0 jumps very high!

// try ping device here

Please see below technical support comment:

I have tested Freescale SDK 1.4 on the P2041RDB board. The FM1@DTSEC4 is the fm1-gb3 under Linux. It can correctly "pinged" after IP address assigning using "ifconfig" command.

It looks like your configuration is not correct if serial port is available after a minute.
