The Toshiba neutrino ethernet bridge + AR8033 issue

1 Issue:

The Toshiba neutrino ethernet driver cann't ping PC:

Add dts node "qcom,ntn_avb" in our dts, ping success on 100M.

But it ping fail on 1000MHz.

1.1 Test step:

1.  push the Neutrino firmware(DWC_ETH_QOS_fw.bin) to /tmp:

2. overlay the /lib/firmware/ by tmp

   cd /tmp

   mkdir upper work

   mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=/lib,upperdir=/tmp/upper,workdir=/tmp/work /lib

   cp /tmp/DWC_ETH_QOS_fw.bin  /lib/firmware/

3. insmod the driver:

   modprobe DWC_ETH_QOS.ko fw_filename=DWC_ETH_QOS_fw.bin

4.  config device and PC ip on same subnet

   ifconfig eth0 192.168.225.3 up

1.2 Test status:

1. Use Usb-Ethernet adapter(100M) connect PC, DUT connect  the adapter, DUT can ping PC success each other .
2. DUT connect PC, ping fail.
3. Use 100M SWITCH connect our DUT and PC, DUT can ping PC success each other .
4. Use 1000M SWITCH connect our DUT and PC, ping fail.
5. change network cable ,the same result.
6. use toshiba release driver, the same test result.

2 investigate  method

2.1 adjust between 100M and 1000M

from the 100M dmesg log:
DWC_ETH_QOS 0000:01:00.0 eth0: Link is Up - 100Mbps/Full - flow control rx/tx
But from 1000M dmesg log:
DWC_ETH_QOS 0000:01:00.0 eth0: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control of

This log from kernel/drivers/net/phy/phy.c phy_print_status() ,and be called by DWC_ETH_QOS_adjust_link.
In DWC_ETH_QOS_adjust_link():

case SPEED_1000:

                hw_if->set_gmii_speed(pdata);

                hw_if->ntn_set_tx_clk_125MHz(pdata);

                break;

            case SPEED_100:

                hw_if->set_mii_speed_100(pdata);

                hw_if→ntn_set_tx_clk_25MHz(pdata);

Eth0 related attribute node:

root@swi-mdm9x40:~# cd /sys/class/net/eth0
root@swi-mdm9x40:/sys/devices/80000.qcom,pcie/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0/0000:01:00.0/net/eth0# ls

Read speed node ,the speed value is correct.

From dmesg log and speed , we know adjust function is normal.

2.2  tcpdump

100M tcpdump :

root@swi-mdm9x40:/tmp# tcpdump -i eth0 -v
