Hi all,I work on an embedded platform based on the Marvell Armada 88F6707, that is connected to a Marvell Alaska 88E1512 ethernet transceiver. A defect has appeared recently, and it turns out to be a regression on the network part. There is a complete lost of the network when following these steps: 1) boot the board with the network cable disconnected 2) run the following commands (or equivalent): ip link set eth0 up ip addr add 10.0.0.80/24 dev eth0 ethtool -s eth0 autoneg on #this is the command that really breaks the network
In fact, the problem is that this control is counter-intuitive. It could instead be ethtool autoneg [on|off|mdio|inband] with "on" implying "mdio". In that case you would never notice the change. Unfortunately there seems to be no way of passing the autoneg mode, so I fused "on" to "inband"... So, unless I am mistaken, this clearly needs a rework. But I have really forgot all the details.
