I know that this is completely of topic, but I am facing a dificulty with stmmac. I have interrupts, mac well configured rx packets being received successfully, but TX is not working, resulting in Tx errors = Total TX packets. I have made a lot of debug and my conclusions is that by some reason when using stmmac after starting tx dma, the hw state machine enters a deadend state resulting in those errors. Anyone faced this trouble? Thanks.
