Public bug reported: On Samsung exynos5440 sleds board, ethernet phy is attached as the fixed phy mode, which can be seen from the following part in arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos5440-sd5v1.dts of linux kernel:
gmac: ethernet@00230000 { fixed-link { speed = <1000>; full-duplex; }; }; Unfortunately the above dts definition doesn't use the standard fixed link dts binding, also the ethernet driver of stmmac doesn't parse fixed link binding, so cause ethernet not workable at all on utopic. The two patches in below tree can add the fixed link support in stmmac and changes the fixed link description into current standard binding: git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ming/ubuntu-utopic.git exynos5440-net-fix 72bf502 UBUNTU: SAUCE: (no-up) net: stmmac: add fixed_phy support via fixed-link DT binding 65a6d09 UBUNTU: SAUCE: (no-up) ARM: exynos5440-sd5v1: switch to fixed-link DT binding Thanks, ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: On Samsung exynos5440 sleds board, ethernet phy is attached as the fixed phy mode, which can be seen from the following part in arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos5440-sd5v1.dts of linux kernel: - gmac: ethernet@00230000 { - fixed-link { - speed = <1000>; - full-duplex; - }; - }; + gmac: ethernet@00230000 { + fixed-link { + speed = <1000>; + full-duplex; + }; + }; - Unfortunately the above dts definition doesn't use the standard fixed link dts binding, also the ethernet - driver of stmmac doesn't parse fixed link binding, so cause ethernet not workable at all on utopic. + Unfortunately the above dts definition doesn't use the standard fixed + link dts binding, also the ethernet driver of stmmac doesn't parse fixed + link binding, so cause ethernet not workable at all on utopic. - The two patches in below tree can add the fixed link support in stmmac and changes the fixed link - description into current standard binding: + The two patches in below tree can add the fixed link support in stmmac + and changes the fixed link description into current standard binding: - git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ming/ubuntu-utopic.git exynos5440-net-fix + git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ming/ubuntu-utopic.git exynos5440-net-fix 72bf502 UBUNTU: SAUCE: (no-up) net: stmmac: add fixed_phy support via fixed-link DT binding 65a6d09 UBUNTU: SAUCE: (no-up) ARM: exynos5440-sd5v1: switch to fixed-link DT binding Thanks, -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1417339 Title: utopic kernel can't make ethernet workable on Samsung exynos5440 sleds board To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1417339/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
