I'm adding the Analogue & Micro Boa (MPC5200/B) platform to the public 2.6.26 tree. Under heavy network load (sometimes even not so heavy!), I get this error: net eth0: FEC_IEVENT_RFIFO_ERROR I've read the thread about how this leads to an incorrect call to the PHY code in the ISR. It's good to know that part of the problem is being worked on.
My question is - what exactly does this error imply? Looking at the MPC5200 manual doesn't give much info - just that there was a Rx FIFO error. I'm also perplexed by the fact that I have two slightly different Boa boards (same CPU rev, speed, etc). About the only thing that's different is the SDRAM setup. One board is rock solid while the other gets this error almost immediately. Also, I sometimes get a Tx timeout on this platform (the one that fails as above). net eth0: transmit timed out Note that I don't have any trouble with this platform running RedBoot or eCos, just Linux :-( Here's the basic info on my platform: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 cpu : G2_LE clock : 396.000000MHz revision : 1.4 (pvr 8082 2014) bogomips : 49.40 timebase : 24750000 Ideas? Any help graciously accepted. n.b. I'm not currently subscribed to this list, so please CC me on any replies.
