SUN8I_EMAC driver wanted (for Orange Pi)

[Alexey Kardashevskiy]

Hi!

I have been using v4.8 with some driver I found somewhere. Ported to v4.13,
it does not work anymore and I wonder if anyone has an idea where to get a
working one from?

It is for Orange Pi PC v1.3.

Thanks!

"Does not work" means:

Hi Alexey

A driver for this was added to Linux May 31st. Try 4.13-rcX enabling
DWMAC_SUN8I.

Aaand it stopped with the only message in dmesg (I was trying to enable
video on that pi but I removed DRM and everything and still seeing this):


114 [    0.816334] dwmac-sun8i 1c30000.ethernet: MAC IRQ configuration
information not found

eth0 does not appear in the system, what am I missing now? Thanks!

Hello

Do you use the maintline dtb or an external one ?
The error message seems to say that you do not use the right DTB.

Yes, that was it, I was under impression I am not changing it but it was
overwritten by the pizero's one. All good now, thanks for the hint.

By any chance, do you have a webpage link handy about making pi-pc video
work? :) I found quite many howtos, all outdated, copied
script.bin.OPI-PC_1080p60_dvi to /boot/script.bin but I am pretty sure I am
missing the kernel support as there is only "fbcon" in /sys/class/graphics/
CONFIG_DRM_MALI_DISPLAY and CONFIG_HDMI are enabled, what else?
