Hi Anmol,

I never used Petalinux since I found it too limiting and everything was packaged into one bootfile. So I used xillinux instead:
http://xillybus.com/xillinux

In any case you would probably have to update the drivers. I will send the versions of emacps.c and dp83460.c I used, hope that helps (separate email, not sure if you can receive zip files). You will have to find the equivalent files in the official distribution and compare.

I can't really answer your first 2 questions. For 3, I'm not sure about the SW timesamping (no need for any change?) but I used these options for HW timestamping (SoCe is a 3rd party FW TSU implementation):

(1) supposedly only needed for DP83640

(2) when turned on, 2 conflicting ptp devices. When turned off and (1) on or off, one ptp device, but “driver change HW settings error”


Hope that helps,

Hi Wolfgang,

Thank you for your quick response.

I was not able to check with your SD card image as the access to that link is blocked in our company’s network.

The DP83640 EVMs we are using are different from one you had used as per the document. So I doubt whether the SD card image can be used as it is.

I followed the steps mentioned in the shared document. However I am seeing similar issues as before

I am using Petalinux 2016.2 version with Kernel version 4.4. This has option for emacps driver. I have enabled emacps and disabled the macb driver.

I have a few questions:

 1. The configuration for one-step sync timestamp insertion in DP83640
    (Page 5, register 0x0016, bit 15) is getting cleared on running
    ptp4l. Is there some option I need to provide in the ptp4l command
    to run one-step mode?
 2. Can you please clarify how is ptp4l fetching the hardware
    timestamps from the PHY? Is it polling for some event hardware
    interrupts to read the timestamp registers of PHY? Want to
    understand if I missed routing some signals in Vivado.
 3. If I want to enable software based timestamping options as well,
    which kernel options need to be enabled?

Following are the timestamping capabilities indicated with current setup. They seem to be same as the ones in your post

Time stamping parameters for eth0:

Capabilities:

        hardware-transmit (SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_HARDWARE)

        hardware-receive (SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RX_HARDWARE)

        hardware-raw-clock (SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE)

PTP Hardware Clock: 0

Hardware Transmit Timestamp Modes:

        off (HWTSTAMP_TX_OFF)

        on   (HWTSTAMP_TX_ON)

        one-step-sync (HWTSTAMP_TX_ONESTEP_SYNC)

Hardware Receive Filter Modes:

        none (HWTSTAMP_FILTER_NONE)

        ptpv1-l4-event (HWTSTAMP_FILTER_PTP_V1_L4_EVENT)

        ptpv2-l4-event (HWTSTAMP_FILTER_PTP_V2_L4_EVENT)

        ptpv2-l2-event (HWTSTAMP_FILTER_PTP_V2_L2_EVENT)

        ptpv2-event (HWTSTAMP_FILTER_PTP_V2_EVENT)

Regards,

Anmol

Hi Amol,

It has been a long time since I used this. I think I saw that error also at some point. I looked through my notes but could not find any detail on it.

I attach a summary that may give a bit more detail that the old thread.

I later upgraded the Zynq to Ubuntu 18 and found that Xilinx removed the emacps driver at some point; the last kernel to include it was release 17.4 and things worked ok with that.

While unused, the functionality is still included in the system we released publicly. An SD card image is here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/u24pn07ggbjvw69/PN_U18_8GB_STD_022226.img/file <https://www.mediafire.com/file/u24pn07ggbjvw69/PN_U18_8GB_STD_022226.img/file>
You might be able to boot your Zedboard with this; I used the MicroZed.

I can also provide the updated kernel functions upon request.

Best regards,

Wolfgang

    Hi,

    I am using TI DP83640 PHY with Xilinx Zedboard (with Ubuntu 16.04
    running on it)

    I have followed the steps mentioned in the following mail thread
    to configure the Xilinx_emacps drivers to detect HW timestamps
    from PHY:

    https://linuxptp-users.narkive.com/i5cijFRH/linuxptp-on-zynq-with-dp83640
    <https://linuxptp-users.narkive.com/i5cijFRH/linuxptp-on-zynq-with-dp83640>

    However on running the following command “ptp4l -P -i eth0 -f
    ./gPTP.cfg -m”, I get the following error:

    ptp4l[265621.845]: selected /dev/ptp0 as PTP clock

    ptp4l[265621.900]: port 1: INITIALIZING to LISTENING on INITIALIZE

    ptp4l[265621.900]: port 0: INITIALIZING to LISTENING on INITIALIZE

    *ptp4l[265623.000]: timed out while polling for tx timestamp*

    *ptp4l[265623.001]: increasing tx_timestamp_timeout may correct
    this issue, but it is likely caused by a driver bug*

    *ptp4l[265623.001]: port 1: send peer delay request failed*

    ptp4l[265623.001]: port 1: LISTENING to FAULTY on FAULT_DETECTED
    (FT_UNSPECIFIED)

    ptp4l[265639.120]: port 1: FAULTY to LISTENING on FAULT_CLEARED

    I tried increasing the “tx_timestamp_timeout” to 10ms, 100ms. But
    it is not resolving the error

    Am I missing any step?

    Regards,

    Anmol
