Method of choice: Using dev branch (which requires fixes in configuration.sh), disabling all our current patches and simply using wens' h3-emac kernel branch. The whole procedure is described here (making use of userpatches since I don't want to destroy everything as last time): http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/932-appletalk-on-an-orange-pi-one/#entry7170

 

Should we rely on wens' branch in the meantime? And decrease maximum cpufreq in u-boot to 816MHz now (just in case since running demanding workloads with more than this clockspeed on all 4 cores might damage H3)?

@Igor: I need an opinion on the proposed changes to configuration.sh :)

 

In the meantime I adjusted armhwinfo and firstrun to show identical behaviour with vanilla and legacy kernel (mostly led stuff) and could send a PR for this. But we should wait for the other guys doing mainlining work for H3 (SPI and so on)...

@tkaiser,

I see that you still setting gpio in U-Boot. That is not necessary anymore. It is correctly described in dts and executed during kernel boot. At least if you are using mripard's sunxi-next branch.

 

Anyway, did you managed to set up ethernet on Plus with wens code? I didn't managed to get it working with montjoie's code.

I have no Plus (but SinoVoip said they send me a Banana Pi M2+ which is a 99% clone using almost all pin mappings identical) so maybe I give it a try then. AFAIK montjoie doesn't deal with external PHY at the moment? Did you have a look at wens' a83-emac branch? At least there the necessary RGMII stuff seems to be defined already.

 

Regarding leds and u-boot: IMO the sooner the green led lights the better (I already thought about disabling USB in u-boot since we do not use and it delays boot/led by a few seconds)

Montjoie also implemented some things for different phy options, but nobody managed to get it working on Plus AFAIK. Wens branch seems also worth a try, but currently I'm unable to, so I thought that you did. I will definetly try.

 

Regarding leds and u-boot: IMO the sooner the green led lights the better (I already thought about disabling USB in u-boot since we do not use and it delays boot/led by a few seconds)

In that case it is better to put LED code in board init function, so it will lit almost instantly after power on and it would be defined through dts (which already is).

Hi

 

I have some question about new ephy driver by linux sunxi (Chen-Yu Tsai - montjoie).

I see the driver is unstable for the moment so i try to use with stmmac emac driver.
There is an mdio support and sunxi A20 glue working, A31 seem to be working also...

The fact is "allwinner,sun8i-h3-ephy" is loaded as ethernet phy and stmmac try to handle it as phy...and make probleme because 0x01c00030 is just an "EMAC clock register".

I see in A31, this emac register is handle by "allwinner,sun7i-a20-gmac-clk" in clk@01c200d0 area. H3 seem have the exactly same registers in 0x01c00030 plus some registers handled with succes with "allwinner,sun8i-h3-ephy" (when i plug an eth cable, and ping to op pc, led blink with pinging so phy is working).

Maybe it 's possible to merge this 2 drivers allwinner,sun7i-a20-gmac-clk and allwinner,sun8i-h3-ephy to be new one for H3 and keep generic stmmac (dwmac-sunxi) to handle EMAC?

Or there is one good reason to not doing like that?

ps : i try with 4.5.3 and uboot2016-03
