This is the readme for the Das U-Boot standalone program smc91111
|
|
The main purpose of this is to manage MAC addresses on platforms
|
which include the SMC91111 integrated 10/100 MAC Phy, with attached
|
EEPROMs.

|
1. Ensuring U-Boot's MAC address can be set in hardware
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
On the Internet - MAC addresses are very important. Short for Media
|
Access Control address, a hardware address that uniquely identifies
|
each node of a network. When things are not unique - bad things
|
can happen. This is why U-Boot makes it difficult to change MAC
|
addresses.
|
|
To find out who has a MAC address, or to purchase MAC addresses, goto
|
the IEEE, at:
|
http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/index.shtml
|
|
2. Running the smc91111_eeprom program
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
After Uboot is compiled, there should be three files of interest:
|
-rwxr-xr-x 1 8806 2004-10-11 14:00 smc91111_eeprom <- ELF
|
-rwxr-xr-x 1 3440 2004-10-11 14:00 smc91111_eeprom.bin <- BIN
|
-rwxr-xr-x 1 9524 2004-10-11 14:00 smc91111_eeprom.srec <- SREC
|
|
if there is not, check the examples/Makefile, and ensure there is something
|
like for your architecture:
|
|
ifeq ($(ARCH),blackfin)
|
SREC += smc91111_eeprom.srec
|
BIN += smc91111_eeprom.bin smc91111_eeprom
|
endif
|
|
To load the files: there are two methods: a) serial or b) network. Since
|
it is not a good idea to start doing things on the network before the
|
MAC address is set, this example will do things over serial.
|
|
a) Loading the elf file via the serial port
|
--------------------------------------------
|
Loading the elf is very easy - just ensure that the location
|
you specify things to load as is not the load address specified
|
in the Makefile.
|
|
BOOT> loadb 0x1000000
|
|
## Ready for binary (kermit) download to 0x01000000 at 57600 bps...
|
|
(type CNTL-\ then C)
|
(Back at local machine)
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
Kermit>send ~/u-boot_1.1.1/examples/smc91111_eeprom
|
Kermit>connect
|
|
Connecting to /dev/ttyS0, speed 57600
|
Escape character: Ctrl-\ (ASCII 28, FS): enabled
|
Type the escape character followed by C to get back,
|
or followed by ? to see other options.
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
## Total Size = 0x00002266 = 8806 Bytes
|
## Start Addr = 0x01000000
|
|
BOOT> bootelf 0x1000000
|
|
Loading .text @ 0x00001000 (3440 bytes)
|
## Starting application at 0x000010d8 ...
|
|
SMC91111>
|
|
b) Loading the binary file via the serial port
|
-----------------------------------------------
|
For many toolchains, the entry point is not the load point.
|
The Load point is a hard coded address from the
|
examples/Makefile. The entry point can be found by doing something
|
like:
|
|
u-boot_1.1.1/examples> bfin-elf-objdump -d smc91111_eeprom |less
|
|
smc91111_eeprom: file format elf32-bfin
|
|
Disassembly of section .text:
|
|
00001000 <smc91111_eeprom-0xd8>:
|
1000:
|
000010d8 <smc91111_eeprom>:
|
|
You can see that the entry point (or the address that should be
|
jumped to is 0x10d8). This is also the same as the entry point
|
of the elf file.
|
|
Now we load it to the actual load location:
|
|
BOOT> loadb 0x1000
|
|
## Ready for binary (kermit) download to 0x00001000 at 57600 bps...
|
|
(Back at pinky.dsl-only.net)
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
Kermit>send /tftpboot/eeprom.bin
|
Kermit>connect
|
|
Connecting to /dev/ttyS0, speed 57600
|
Escape character: Ctrl-\ (ASCII 28, FS): enabled
|
Type the escape character followed by C to get back,
|
or followed by ? to see other options.
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
## Total Size = 0x00000d70 = 3440 Bytes
|
## Start Addr = 0x00001000
|
|
BOOT> go 0x10D8
|
|
## Starting application at 0x000010D8 ...
|
|
SMC91111>
|
|
3. Setting MAC addresses
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
The MAC address can be stored in four locations:
|
|
-Boot environmental variable in Flash <- can not change, without
|
re-flashing U-Boot.
|
U-Boot environmental variable <- can not change, without
|
resetting board/U-Boot
|
LAN91C111 Registers <- volatile
|
LAN91C111 EEPROM <- Non-volatile
|
|
If you have not activated the network, and do not have a hardcoded
|
or pre-assigned MAC address in U-Boot, the environmental variables
|
should be blank, and allow you to set things one time.
|
|
To set the EEPROM MAC address to 12:34:56:78:9A:BC
|
|
SMC91111> W E 20 3412
|
|
Writing EEPROM register 20 with 3412
|
SMC91111> W E 21 7856
|
|
Writing EEPROM register 21 with 7856
|
SMC91111> W E 22 BC9A
|
|
Writing EEPROM register 22 with bc9a
|
EEPROM contents copied to MAC
|
SMC91111> P
|
|
Current MAC Address in SMSC91111 12:34:56:78:9a:bc
|
Current MAC Address in EEPROM 12:34:56:78:9a:bc
|
|
(CNTRL-C to exit)
|
SMC91111> ## Application terminated, rc = 0x0
|
|
BOOT> reset

4. Other things that you can do
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
After the stand alone application is running, there are a few options:
|
- P : Print the MAC
|
- D : Dump the LAN91C111 EEPROM contents
|
- M : Dump the LAN91C111 MAC contents
|
- C : Copies the MAC address from the EEPROM to the LAN91C111
|
- W : Write a register in the EEPROM or in the MAC
|
|
