stm32mp157 Ethernet problem

[Yli.8]

hello:

    ​I made a board using the AR8035 phy chip. The system can find the phy, but it can't connect to the network.I need your help.

log:

With the log you shared, we did not see any issue with the Ethernet, you end up at [12.232391] with a 'link-up' message.

Issue might be more on your Network Server set up. Seems you get an ipv6 address without ipv4, then you need to set manually an ipv4 address. Please look at your DHCP server config.

Did you made same tests using STM32MP157A-DK1 or STM32MP157C- DK2 board with default starter package ?

• Thank you very much for your reply，But I've tested the same thing with normal networks

On my side, I cannot help much more, experts told me that it could be a DHCP or your own network config which make the ping not working.

There is no error visible in the log.

When doing ifconfig after boot and few seconds after RJ45 cable connection, you should have both inet and inet6 defined without manual action, e.g. :

root@stm32mp1-eval:~# ifconfig
 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:80:E1:01:64:F9

​Thank you very much for your reply

Can you help me check the hardware design of the phy

The phy address is 6

[PatrickF]

I had a quick look, just ensure the PG5 receive a 125MHz from the PHY (need SW config inside the PHY to output this frequency, otherwise you get 25MHz by default on CLK_25M pin).

AR8035 switches RX clock off without a cable or after some time passed.

How to reset gmac dma in absence of that clock?

Is there any official workaround for such a situation?
