I don't have my design hardware, I've bought many bbb boards and some of them with ethernet issues after many hours working without any problems link becomes down. Does the kernel with -bone60 or greater suffix is the SW workaround? Is the power management of the LAN chip couse the problem?
below log from kernel when problems occur: Dec 6 14:22:17 beaglebone kernel: [709664.393005] libphy: 4a101000.mdio:00 - Link is Down Dec 6 14:22:20 beaglebone kernel: [709666.620148] net eth0: initializing cpsw version 1.12 (0) Dec 6 14:22:20 beaglebone kernel: [709666.622540] net eth0: phy 4a101000.mdio:00 not found on slave 0 Dec 6 14:22:20 beaglebone kernel: [709666.628940] libphy: PHY 4a101000.mdio:01 not found Dec 6 14:22:20 beaglebone kernel: [709666.634052] net eth0: phy 4a101000.mdio:01 not found on slave 1 Dec 6 14:22:20 beaglebone kernel: [709666.644534] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready and when no problems - at boot time: Jan 1 01:00:13 beaglebone kernel: [ 6.183325] net eth0: initializing cpsw version 1.12 (0) Jan 1 01:00:13 beaglebone kernel: [ 6.187580] net eth0: phy found : id is : 0x7c0f1 Jan 1 01:00:13 beaglebone kernel: [ 6.187608] libphy: PHY 4a101000.mdio:01 not found Jan 1 01:00:13 beaglebone kernel: [ 6.192679] net eth0: phy 4a101000.mdio:01 not found on slave 1 Jan 1 01:00:13 beaglebone kernel: [ 6.224917] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready Jan 1 01:00:13 beaglebone kernel: [ 6.580019] omap_rng 48310000.rng: base address of priv is -97452032 Jan 1 01:00:13 beaglebone kernel: [ 6.614128] omap_rng 48310000.rng: OMAP Random Number Generator ver. 20 Jan 1 01:00:13 beaglebone kernel: [ 10.333416] libphy: 4a101000.mdio:00 - Link is Up - 100/Full Jan 1 01:00:13 beaglebone kernel: [ 10.333488] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready Today I'll check current kernel version of the board with ethernet issues.
