NanoPi K1: Adding U-Boot network support?

g40 · January 11, 2019

I'm trying to get TFTP support into U-Boot but it insists that 'no ethernet found'. I've added a couple of nodes to the device tree such that it has 'status = "okay" and mac-address = [00 00 00 00 00 00];

I've also added a top level alias in sun50i-h5-nanopi-k1-plus.dts (as added by @martinayotte following this thread) as below.

Not sure if the U-Boot config needs changing in any way but the network components are certainly being built.

Any thoughts most welcome. AATIA.

		serial0 = &uart0;
		ethernet0 = &emac;
