Hi Simon,

I have not done testing of this driver with checksum offload.  I do test
the driver in an automated test, but not in checksum offload mode, I
need to add that test. 

I did receive the following patch and applied it to the Git server so I
think Johann did some testing with checksum offload.  That may have been
with arch/ppc rather than arch/powerpc, not sure.

I noticed that you have uboot working with LL TEMAC and it must be using
DMA SG as it's running on the same h/w. I just got thru hacking together
a rough polled mode LL TEMAC driver to support uboot and it's working,
but not cleaned up.  Just curious on your experience in that area.

Thanks,
John Linn

Subject: [PATCH] Xilinx: LL TEMAC: Fix checksum offload

The LL TEMAC is generating the wrong checksum when TX hardware checksum
is enabled. This is mainly due to two issues:
- CHECKSUM_COMPLETE can only be used on RX PATH, CHECKSUM_PARTIAL must
be used instead.
- Checksum index offsets are being calculated wrong.

Hi all,

does anyone have working driver for xps_ll_temac unsing sg dma and
checksum offload on rx and tx ??

I use the xlnx kernel with ARCH=powerpc  and a device tree generated
with the gen_mhs_devtree under EDK 10.1

I don't know what's wrong but i can't get or send anything  even the
speed is only 10 Mb/s !

that's what i get when the kernel starts...

I can see the led blinking on my switch but don't see nothing using
wireshak !!!


Finaly, i know the the temac works because i can use it with uboot !!!
