The NXP {cpu-family} CPU has two 10/100/1000 Ethernet MACs.
On the ConnectCore 8X SBC Pro:
-
Ethernet1 port is connected to a 10/100/1000 Atheros AR8031 PHY.
-
Ethernet2 port is connected to a 10/100/1000 Atheros AR8031 PHY.
Kernel configuration
You can manage the Ethernet driver and PHY Device support through the following kernel configuration options:
-
FEC Ethernet controller (of ColdFire and some i.MX CPUs) (
CONFIG_FEC
) -
PHY device support for AT803x (
CONFIG_AT803X_PHY
)
These options are enabled as built-in on the default ConnectCore 8X kernel configuration file.
Kernel driver
The driver for the Ethernet interface is located at:
File | Description |
---|---|
i.MX FEC driver |
|
Driver for Atheros 8031 PHY |
Device tree bindings and customization
The {cpu-family} Ethernet interface device tree binding is documented at Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/fsl-fec.txt
.
The Ethernet interfaces are defined in the {cpu-family} CPU and ConnectCore 8X SBC Pro device tree files.
Example: FEC1 & FEC2 on ConnectCore 8X SBC Pro

MAC addresses
The MAC addresses of the {cpu-family} Ethernet interfaces are programmed in the U-Boot environment (variables ethaddr
and eth1addr
) on the ConnectCore 8X eMMC.
The MAC address of the first Ethernet interface is also printed on the module label.
U-Boot writes the MAC addresses in the ethaddr
and ethaddr1
environment variables into their respective device tree fec
nodes under the local-mac-address
property.
For more information, see Environment variables.
Using the Ethernet interface
For information about using Ethernet interfaces, see Networking API.
