in order to get the onboard network on the Radxa Rock2 to work at all
on today's linux-next, I had to revert both commits:

probe and the link to come up, and
I've just sent two patches (on top of net.git) to fix this problem
pls let me know if these help on your side too.
* "stmmac: first frame prep at the end of the xmit routine" for the
network interface to work at all.
I cannot reproduce it right now but I am looking at this again and let
you know.
I will check your output file too
hmm, I think that the problem is around the "normal descriptor"
management that is configured on the boxes where the driver is
failing now. Using enhanced descriptors the network is ok.
I will keep you up-to-date.
Hi,
I have done some tests and these are the results:
* net.git (133800d1f028): probe failed
ok, failure due to the "stmmac: Fix 'eth0: No PHY found' regression"
* net.git (133800d1f028) + revert: everything fine
ok that is expected but the fixed-link will be NOK
* net.git (133800d1f028) + revert + "stmmac: fix MDIO settings": everything fine
thx for having tested it. So it works on real transceiver (tested by
you) and with the fixed-link (tested by me).
* today's linux-next: probe failed
* today's linux-next + revert of 88f8b1bb41c6 stmmac: Fix 'eth0: No
PHY found' regression: probe succeeded but no network at all
* today's linux-next + revert of 88f8b1bb41c6 (stmmac: Fix 'eth0: No
PHY found' regression) + revert of 0e80bdc9a72d (stmmac: first frame
prep at the end of xmit routine): probe succeeded, dhcp succeeds and
nfsroot works for a few seconds before timing out
ok, I was looking at this problem now that seems to related
the "stmmac: first frame prep at the end of xmit routine"
that, at first glance, is breaking the gmac 3.50 with normal descriptor.
Btw, could you CC LKML on future patches that need testing?
sure

But a few seconds into the nfsroot boot I start getting:
