I know that this is completely of topic, but I am facing a dificulty with
stmmac. I have interrupts, mac well configured rx packets being received
successfully, but TX is not working, resulting in Tx errors = Total TX packets.
I have made a lot of debug and my conclusions is that by some reason when using
stmmac after starting tx dma, the hw state machine enters a deadend state
resulting in those errors. Anyone faced this trouble?
Thanks.
