           Summary: Via Rhine Ethernet driver is reading the MAC
                    incorrectly
           Product: eCos
           Version: CVS
          Platform: pc (i386 PC target)
        OS/Version: IA32
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: low
         Component: Ethernet
        AssignedTo: unassigned@bugs.ecos.sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: stephen@centtech.com

if_rhine.c patch

The current Via Rhine Ethernet driver was designed to access the PCI card by
way of I/O reads and writes.  Early in the code the driver acquires the I/O
base and stores in the cpd->base structure.  Then, the driver uses
HAL_PCI_IO_READs and HAL_PCI_IO_WRITEs macros to access the card.

However, for some unknown reason the driver reloads the MAC address using the
cpd->base variable as a memory address.  This causes the driver to load random
data for the MAC.  Later, REDBOOT fails because it passes a bad MAC to the DHCP
server.

The fix was to change the code to access the card via macros.

Old Code:

        // Use the address from the serial EEPROM
        p = cpd->base + RHINE_PAR0;
        for (i = 0; i < 6; i++)
            cpd->esa[i] = *p++;

New Code:

        // Use the address from the serial EEPROM
        for (i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
      HAL_PCI_IO_READ_UINT8(cpd->base + RHINE_PAR0 + i, cpd->esa[i]);
    }

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for your bug report and workaround.

One thing. I have not seen a reason to suppress a debug message in
find_rhine_match_func(), so, I have rejected that tweak from your patch
(also we use 4 spaces indents).

When I tested build of the driver I found 1 annoying compiler warning
from via_rhine.h and I've decided to put the fix in cummulative patch.

If would be great if you could test the patch on real hardware. If you
could do it, let me know, please (I mean an attachment 1356).

Sergei

Hi Sergei,

Yes, I will test the patch out.  I have the hardware in my office.
I will email you when the testing is done.

Thanks,

Stephen

Hello Sergei.  I am sorry for the delay.  My boss had me working on 
other stuff until recently.  I applied your patch to the latest ecos 
build tree. I have verified that your patch [attachment 1356]
fixes the bug in the VIA Rhine driver.  

I built the VIA Rhine driver for the pc redboot package.  This
is a new package that I will be uploading to ECOS very shortly.  
I was successful in loading and running hello.c via GDB network debugging
using a D-Link DFE-530TX Rev-A3-1 PCI card.

Please commit your changes to the ECOS tree at your earliest convenience.

Thanks,

Stephen
