Subject: [PATCH] gianfar: Fix half-duplex operation for non-MII/RMII interfaces
Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2009 22:27:34 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090624182734.GA14306@oksana.dev.rtsoft.ru> (raw)

It appears that gianfar driver has the same problem[1] that I
just fixed for ucc_geth.

NFS boot using 10/half link takes about 10 minutes to complete:

  eth0: Gianfar Ethernet Controller Version 1.2, 00:11:22:33:44:55
  eth0: Running with NAPI enabled
  eth0: 256/256 RX/TX BD ring size
  [...]
  Sending DHCP requests .
  PHY: mdio@e0024520:02 - Link is Up - 10/Half
  ., OK
  [...]
  Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 10.0.0.2
  Looking up port of RPC 100005/1 on 10.0.0.2
  VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem) readonly on device 0:11.
  Freeing unused kernel memory: 188k init
  nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying
  nfs: server 10.0.0.2 OK
  nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying
  nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying
  nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying
  [... few minutes of OK/not responding flood ...]

And just as with ucc_geth, statistic shows errors:

  # ethtool -S eth0 | grep -v ": 0"
  NIC statistics:
       rx-dropped-by-kernel: 2
       tx-rx-64-frames: 49
       tx-rx-65-127-frames: 1270

       tx-packets: 8115
       tx-broadcast-packets: 3
       tx-deferral-packets: 43
       tx-single-collision-packets: 15
       tx-multiple-collision-packets: 301
       tx-late-collision-packets: 872
       tx-total-collision: 999
       tx-undersize-frames: 6

The symptoms were observed on MPC8379E-RDB boards (eTSEC). Although
I didn't find where documentation forbids clearing Full Duplex bit
for non-MII/RMII modes, it's pretty distinct that the bit should be
set.

It's no wonder though, QE Ethernet and TSEC are pretty similar.
