LAN Marvell Yukon-2 driver

[Slice]

On my Dell Inspiron 1525 I have a Marvell 88E8040 . It is quite different from other Yukon-2 devices:

1. It is not Gigabit adapter, only Fast ethernet.

2. It has only one output port.

3. It needs workarounds in several situations.

So AppleYukon.kext and AppleYukon2.kext don't work with any patches. They intended for chips b3-b7 while I have b8. And I know that 88E8040T has chip b9 also not supported.

 

FreeBSD driver is "if_msk.c". In development. Seems doesn't work too.

Linux driver "sky2.c" seems to be good.

I was tried to apply them to create MacOSX driver. Here is my sources and debug version. Doesn't work yet!

I give up.

Being alone I can't finish it.

EDITED:

Continue developmentMarvell_103.src.zip

 

EDITED 09-12-2008: Marvell_104.zip

The new sources also include the most full Linux driver sk98lin but without 8040 patches.

 

Would like to see your reports like my

Is there anybody can find a sources of AppleYukon2 driver?

 

EDITED 10-03-2009

That's all. I have working driver from 10.5.7 so I need no more to continue the development. If anyone wants to make some driver based on my sources - !

[gizmoarena]

Did you try editing the Info.plist and replacing with your device/vendor IDs?

I am using 88E8039 by this method. Working fine.

 

I can give you my kext, you can edit the plist and just replace 39 by 40.

[Slice]

I tried 4 version of AppleYukon and 3 version of AppleYukon2. Nothing works!

I can try also your version, but 8040 is 100mb while 8039 - gigabit.

[Drummkit]

gizmø could you give me your kext?

Slice I saw that you tried to make a driver, I have some time to spend so if you could make a little documentation with what you have done and what remains to, it will be appreciated,

thanks

In my sources I made comments

//done - I think the procedure is OK

// TODO - I think the procedure is wrong.

 

I write the driver based on Apple's sources for other NICs and on FreeBSD's and Linux's sources for Yukon-2. So it needs to compare logics of my driver with Linux's driver step by step.

But the last one uses Linux API that I can't understand. For example

static irqreturn_t sky2_intr(int irq, void *dev_id)
{
	struct sky2_hw *hw = dev_id;
	UInt32 status;

	/* Reading this mask interrupts as side effect */
	status = CSR_READ_4(B0_Y2_SP_ISRC2);
	if (status == 0 || status == ~0)
			return IRQ_NONE;

	prefetch(&hw->st_le[hw->st_idx]);

	napi_schedule(&hw->napi);

	return IRQ_HANDLED;
}

What is napi_shedule in terms of MacOSX?

Where is sky2_poll called?

	   netif_napi_add(dev, &hw->napi, sky2_poll, NAPI_WEIGHT);

I am also not clear about using MTU in MacOSX.

[Drummkit]

Ok thanks Slice, I will try to make something...

Guys, any progress ?

With my 88E8055, you not only need to edit the device ID in the AppleYukon2.kext Info.plist, but you have to edit the SubSystem ID otherwise it won't recognize your specific device.

 

My 88E8055 works fine after adding the SubSystem ID to the Info.plist, its worth a shot on the 88E8040. There was no patch needed.

 

I'm at work...otherwise I'd post the code, and show you what I mean...let me know if you've already gone this route.

My device is recognized. But any driver give me numerous errors.

 

I have some progress with my driver. May be it will works in future.

[aqua-mac]

Guys,

 

Any further progress?

[Slice]

Guys,

 

Any further progress?

Why multiple? I am still alone.

[Krazubu]

Slice,

If it can help M. Musashi made an open source driver for Yukon 8001 and it's available here somewhere in the forum.

This driver works nice for me but has some random panics at boot sometimes.

Thank you for attention. I know skge sources and I begin from them. Nontheless it is only an origin of very hard way. Yukon 8001 is a Yukon-1 while I have Yukon-2 with many new corrections.

1. Compare to Yukon-1 I have new set of internal registers.

2. Compare to Yukon 88E8056 I have only one port and speed of 100mb.

3. Compare to other Yukon I have no large internal RAM buffer. Only 8kb, but not 512kb.

4. I have slow chip running with 50MHz while other with 125MHz.

5. I have StatusRing which I can't understand.

 

I can write a driver. I know C++. I don't know network. It is a problem.

Hi Slice,

 

This is from my Samsung NC10, if you need any other info, please let me know.

Hope this is helpful. Sorry that I cannot be of more help, the detail of networking is not my strong point.

New problem

Marvell 88E8040 nic doesn't work with sky2 driver

 

 

It is linux!!!!!

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/189982

 

EDITED:

If anyone wants to help me, please find any working sources Linux, BSD, or other Unix, or Windows or MacOSX.

[Yukon Kid]

Slice

Not sure if you have been here for info, maybe it will help.

I copied this from a search I was doing online.

Maybe the links might help you figure out what you need.

 

"The driver is now on our Foundry27 web site. The new network protocol framework (io-pkt) can be found at the following

link:

 

http://community.qnx.com/sf/projects/networking

 

Please follow the instructions found on this page to download and install the software.

 

For the Marvell Yukon2 driver, the “Experimental” driver is devnp-msk.so. This driver object can be found in “sys/dev

/msk”, and the actual source code is found in “sys/dev/pci/if_msk.c”.

 

When you do the build, you’ll find the denp-msk.so binary under your staging area /x86/lib/dll. It only builds for x86

because this was the only platform we could test it on.

 

We are looking for feedback in how this driver is working. We would like to be able to make the appropriate updates, if

required, to this driver. Therefore, please let us know how this works for you so thta we may work to provide the most

complete working driver."

It is very interesting for me to discuss a Yukon driver problem with another developers.

The only problem.

I can't check alien OS driver if_msk.c. Moreover, I can't download it because of very complex registration/activity/only_for_developers/...

I create a MacOSX driver which is not the same as FreeBSD driver.

[Yukon Kid]

well I didn't try to look at the source myself.

 

I am sure that your driver is different , but if you look at the freebsd for yukon2 would it help find the thing you are having trouble with?

 

as I am not trying to write a program, I am only able to offer ideas, and ask questions.

 

I would like you to be successful.

 

Keep up the good work.

It is better then nothing.

 

I don't know why my driver does not working. Needs comparison and thinking.

[Slice]

New problems.

I took a Linux driver from www.marvell.com and description Yukon_FE+_88E8040.pdf.

What I see

Driver

/* Minimum RAM Buffer Rx Queue Size */
#define SK_MIN_RXQ_SIZE	(((pAC)->GIni.GIYukon2) ? 10 : 16)		/* 10/16 kB */

/* Minimum RAM Buffer Tx Queue Size */
#define SK_MIN_TXQ_SIZE	(((pAC)->GIni.GIYukon2) ? 10 : 16)		/* 10/16 kB */

PDF

MAC / PHY Features

3 KB Receive buffer and 2KB Transmit buffer

 

Driver

-----------------------------
case OP_LSOV2:		/* Yukon-Extreme only */						\

PDF

MAC / PHY Features

LSO V2 support

No perfect driver/description.

 

The big problem for me is to organize a RAM buffer and I don't know what to do with this contradiction.

[Slice]

I am going by other way.

I took latest AppleYukon2.kext (from 10.5.6), reversed it, compare with oficial Marvell's Linux driver and found that they are similar but Apple driver is for chip b3-b7 while we need b8. Wait for Apple make new version?

I decided to edit binary code by a way to make it is working for b8.

Till now I found only 28 places chip dependent. Not so hard!

After few more patches I have working net during few seconds. Then link drops down.

I need only to understand why.

 

[gbonilla]

Slice, I got your latest kext and tried it but every time I connect my ethernet I get a kernel panic. Any idea why?
