Thanks for the patch. Please repost CCing the netdev mailing list so it
can be merged to the networking tree (which I assume is your intent).
Please also include a Fixes tag pointing to the commit where the
timeout issue started (even if it's the first commit of the driver).

But why? What is wrong with the EVB that this change resolves? Which revision 
of the EVB?

The change affects all designs using the MAC, not just the AST2600 EVB. Why is 
this patch an appropriate course of action? Can we not add a quirk targeting the
specific board (e.g. a devicetree property)?

Dear Reviewer,

When FTGMAC100 driver is used on other NCSI Ethernet controllers, few
controllers have compatible issue. One example is Intel I210 Ethernet
controller on AST2600 BMC, with FTGMAC100 driver, it always trigger
RXDES0_RX_ERR error, cause NCSI initialization failure, removing
FTGMAC100_RXDES0_RX_ERR bit from RXDES0_ANY_ERROR fix the issue.

This patch add a configurable flag, FTGMAC100_RXDES0_RX_ERR_CHK, in FTGMAC100
 driver, it is YES by default, so keep the orignal define of
RXDES0_ANY_ERROR. If it is needed, user can set the flag to NO to remove
the RXDES0_RX_ERR bit, to fix the issue.

You are correct. I was in a rush and didn't put this patch under whole picture 
of the driver it affected. I revised the cover letter with more information, also
use a configurable flag to isolate the change. please review the new approach.

When you say NCSI Ethernet controller here you mean the main system
NIC, right? The MAC on the NCSI side is FTGMAC100, correct?

In that case I'm not sure how user is supposed to control this setting
at build time. The system NIC is often pluggable on the PCIe bus, and
can be changed at will.

I work with a few systems that use the i210 on the 2600. We haven't
seen this issue in our testing.

Is there something specific about the setup that you use to trigger this?

Ryan, is this an issue that Aspeed is aware of?

Cheers,

RE: [Aspeed, ncsi-rx, v1 0/1] net: ftgmac100: Fix AST2600EVB NCSI RX issue

[Dylan Hung]

Hi Hongwei,

The NCSI should run on 3.3V RMII.  According your log, you enabled NCSI on ftgmac100@1e660000 which can only support 1.8V I/O voltage.
Did you observe the same error on ftgmac100@1e670000 (MAC3) or ftgmac100@1e690000 (MAC4)?

Hi Dylan,

Thanks for your review and input, you're correct, this issue is not observed on
AST2600 MAC4 (ftgmac100@1e690000).

Though this issue is caused by using NCSI incompatible MAC ftgmac100@1e660000,
we thought this patch is still having value, by providing an extra option to
user to be able to use ftgmac100@1e660000 for NCSI, and this is also true for
AST2500.

Hi Jakub,

The use case for us is the MAC is configured as NCSI, so it provides network
 access for both BMC and Host, the Ethernet controller driver is from BMC kernel
side.

please see my response to Dylan in another thread, <20201215192323.24359-1-hongweiz@ami.com>,
he points out the root cause of the issue.
