Hi3518e and ethernet not working ?

[briaeros]

Hi,

I've got an 53H13PE board, with a Hi3518e and an aptina and I'm trying to use your buildroot on it.

However, the driver hieth seems to be a little upset with it, since it give me an interface (eth0) wich emits and receives absolutely no packet. I can assign it an ip address, but whatever I do, no packet are sended nor received (check by tcpdump on the board, or on my network). The on-board firmware works well on this aspect.

I've used the linux 3.0 version, since with the 3.4 I don't have any serial console (and no network). I've tried to modify the RMIIMODE{U,D} and the PHYID_{U,D} in the linux config, to no avail.

Have you got this problem , and/or do you have an idea where to look at to investigate ?

Do you know any "cheap" board that is compatible with this buildroot (it could be easier to just switch the board :))

Cordially

Ps : on the on-board firmware, I've got theses informations, but I don't know what to do with

From boot :

<6>PHY: himii:01 - Link is Up - 100/Full
<6>Sofia uses obsolete (PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET

from some other conf file

You need to change "rmii" to "mii" in package/himpp/himpp-hi3518v100/load3518.sh.

[briaeros]

Thanks for the answer and the hint.

However, no luck there. I've change the load3518.sh, then as id didn't work, adding the CONFIG_HIETH_MII_RMII_MODE_U=0 CONFIG_HIETH_MII_RMII_MODE_D=0 to the linux-3.0 config (I've test with 1 also). But nothing seems to work.

The led is barely orange when buildroot is "on" (as if there are not enough power). On Uboot , it's brightly orange at start, then stay only green. And on the original firmware the two leds are brightly on.

I've dump the spi firmware and "binwalk" him, but I've no idea how find the "config" of the kernel (I don't think that's possible :( ).

[csolg]

@briaeros Can you see the chip name?

[briaeros]

The phy chip is IP101GR (http://www.bdtic.com/DataSheet/ICplus/IP101G_DS_R01_20121224.pdf ), and the Hi chip is HI3518ERBCV10D. Someone else did make a good pdf of the module in question http://ve6sbs.sbszoo.com/projects/ipcam/53H13PE-S/53H13PE-S_Mods.pdf (I've check the reference of the chips and I've got the same). The pcb on mine module is too dark to know how the '4' pin (MII/RMII) of the IP101GR is connected.

Thanks for your help :)

[csolg]

Did you rebuild the kernel (with command make linux-rebuild)?

[briaeros]

I use make clean && make -j 8 to compile "from scratch" each time. To be sure, I've (re-)cloned the git repo, add the two modification (the two lines on the linux-3.0 config and the modification on the loadhi3518.sh) . Then , after a make hi3518v100_defconfig; I've modified the config only on two way

• adding tcpdump
• putting the rootfs in the initramfs (BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS=y) (for me, that's the most simple way of loading and testing a new firmware).

Unfortunately , this doesn't change a thing :(

I've verified with an uname -a that I've got the last compiled kernel. "Linux hi35xx 3.0.8 #2 Mon Jan 2 23:20:10 UTC 2017 armv5tejl GNU/Linux"

I've copied the boot.txt if it could help. boot.txt

If you've got any idea to test, I'm more than interested :)

[csolg]

Do you have access to uboot? I need output of command printenv. Also output of command ifconfig (from linux console).

[briaeros]

Hi,

I've attached multiples files. I've found that the origin firmware is in rmii (the boot launch ./load3518 -i ar0130 , and the "load3518" command is copied in load-firmware-origin.txt).

The uboot printenv is in uboot.txt, and I've run ifconfig on both firmware (buildroot and firmware origin, which works). I've add the kmsg of the origin firmware.

However, even if it's in rmii, it doesn't explain why it wouldn't work :'(

ifconfig-buildroot.txt ifconfig-firmware-origin.txt kmsg-firmware-origin.txt load-firmware-origin.txt uboot.txt

[csolg]

Did you set BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_BOARDNAME to hi3518e?

[briaeros]

Hi,

I didn't, but I've done a new compile using this parameters to hi3518e (and modifying BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_HI35XX_IMAGE_CH_FILE to board/hisilicon/hi3518/boot/reg_info_hi3518e.bin).

Unfortunately , I tried to use the uboot generate with the command tftp 0x81000000 u-boot.bin then go 0x81000000 , but the network didn't work in the new uboot.

No more lucks with just the kernel and the original u-boot.

I think that my board is cursed :d If you've know a name of a cheap board that works well, I'm eager to know it :)

[csolg]

Hi, I have the same board. But I can access to the network from uboot and linux. Did you fix the problem? I bought a programmator for mx25l6406e. If you have a problem with the board loading.

[briaeros]

Thank you for your patience.

I've tried to modify the default configuration of uboot, to get it directly working from ram (without the uboot-env partition). But even when I put all the information that are in uboot-env.txt, I can't make it work. So I'm not really confident to put it on flash ;) I've test with mii and rmii.

I tried to boot the new kernel from this uboot (loading it before), but without success. It didn't even take into account the uboot variable "sensor_type" and always try to launch the ov sensor. I pass the ${hieth} to kernel command line. Modifying mdioifu and mdioifd to 1 doesn't modified the apathy of the kernel.

I've got some stm32 laying somewhere, perhaps I could convert one to make a spi progammer, but I'm not too found to desolder the chips (and I'm sure to be good enough to

How did you make your firmware image ? Juste copy each binary to the right address on the flash, or do you make a complete image before pushing it to the flash ?

In the end I needed to also edit the net_rmii_mode function in the pinmux_hi3518.sh startup script, which was incorrectly setting the muxctrl_reg28 register to the wrong function (EPHY_CLK instead of GPIO1_3).

I've made these changes in a fork of hi35xx-buildroot, see: https://github.com/mark4h/hi35xx-buildroot/commit/1431cc6b475d7260bb3a1cafcb820d6528dd15d1#diff-084575f2e251e68e0dec60679d6760b3

briaeros commented 7 years ago

@49handyman Hello,

Concerning the nfs : if you boot with an image "standalone" (flash, initrd, ...) , do you have access to the network in it ? If yes, what is the kernel command line you want to use to boot on nfs ?

For the jtag, I'm not sure you can mux it directly other the ethernet phy. Nothing seems to indicate this on the datasheet of my ethernet phy or the hi3518.

For the live-streamer url , I'm searching the same information :).

tofurky commented 7 years ago

@mark4h thanks. i was getting hieth:hieth_net_timeout:461: and tx timeout on my hi3518ev100 board. i think the oem is siepem and the camera was sold as a "spigen e300w". i just copy+pasted the devmem commands from the net_mii_mode() function without rebooting and the network miraculously came to life :) looking at the oem firmware, there is a file /komod/pinmux_hi3518.sh which also has a function called net_mii_mode() that basically does the same thing, but uses the himm utility from the hisilicon sdk instead of devmem. i'll probably end up just converting those scripts to use devmem instead of himm (which kind of seems like you have done in your fork). p.s. here are several hi3518 sdk .zip's including ones as recent as end of 2015: https://app.box.com/s/cibs7n1mgvhqaqjlidtveegu1uajt5yr/folder/18989615567 i used 7z to extract the multi-part zip files.

AutoReply

You can get RTSP traffic from IPCam - rtsp://you_device_ip:554/0 or rtsp://you_device_ip:554/1

ZigFisher commented 6 years ago

Good afternoon !

I have a question about the use of an internal/external Ethernet PHY.

If I use an internal Hisilicon PHY then I must set it in the kernel settings: CONFIG_HIETH_PHYID_U=0 CONFIG_HIETH_PHYID_D=1

If I use an external PHY RTL8201 or IP101 then I must set it in the kernel settings: CONFIG_HIETH_PHYID_U=1 CONFIG_HIETH_PHYID_D=2

If I rebuild the kernel for each system, everything works fine.

I'm wondering, is there a way to switch PHY directly from the Linux console via devmem/himm ?

Thanks for any answers

@49handyman Hello,

Concerning the nfs : if you boot with an image "standalone" (flash, initrd, ...) , do you have access to the network in it ? If yes, what is the kernel command line you want to use to boot on nfs ?

For the jtag, I'm not sure you can mux it directly other the ethernet phy. Nothing seems to indicate this on the datasheet of my ethernet phy or the hi3518.

For the live-streamer url , I'm searching the same information :).

@mark4h thanks. i was getting hieth:hieth_net_timeout:461: and tx timeout on my hi3518ev100 board. i think the oem is siepem and the camera was sold as a "spigen e300w". i just copy+pasted the devmem commands from the net_mii_mode() function without rebooting and the network miraculously came to life :) looking at the oem firmware, there is a file /komod/pinmux_hi3518.sh which also has a function called net_mii_mode() that basically does the same thing, but uses the himm utility from the hisilicon sdk instead of devmem. i'll probably end up just converting those scripts to use devmem instead of himm (which kind of seems like you have done in your fork). p.s. here are several hi3518 sdk .zip's including ones as recent as end of 2015: https://app.box.com/s/cibs7n1mgvhqaqjlidtveegu1uajt5yr/folder/18989615567 i used 7z to extract the multi-part zip files.

Can I get RTSP destination URL from live-streamer started on HI3518EV1 cam with ov9712 sensor ?

You can get RTSP traffic from IPCam - rtsp://you_device_ip:554/0 or rtsp://you_device_ip:554/1

Good afternoon !

I have a question about the use of an internal/external Ethernet PHY.

If I use an internal Hisilicon PHY then I must set it in the kernel settings: CONFIG_HIETH_PHYID_U=0 CONFIG_HIETH_PHYID_D=1

If I use an external PHY RTL8201 or IP101 then I must set it in the kernel settings: CONFIG_HIETH_PHYID_U=1 CONFIG_HIETH_PHYID_D=2

If I rebuild the kernel for each system, everything works fine.

I'm wondering, is there a way to switch PHY directly from the Linux console via devmem/himm ?

Thanks for any answers
