When PLCA is enabled it's expected that CD causes problems, when running in CSMA/CD mode it was unexpected (for me at least). Disabling collision detection was discussed here https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20231127104045.96722-1-ramon.nordin.rodriguez@xxxxxxxxxxx/ in a patchset that I haven't gotten around to testing through properly and fixing up, but now it's definetly a priority. Rev.b0 and b1 gives similar results in this domain, though I'm getting lower throughput and it's easier/faster to get the internal error state on rev.b1. When CD is disabled both chip revs seems stable in all of my testing. > > > > I'll check the footer content, thanks for the tip! > > > > All testing has bee done with Rev.B0, we've located a set of B1 chips. > > So we'll get on resoldering and rerunning the test scenario. > Thanks for the consideration.

I posted a suggestion for how to bringup rev.b1 https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240524140706.359537-1-ramon.nordin.rodriguez@xxxxxxxxxxx/ I should have prefaced the cover letter with 'ugly hacks ahead'. > > Also I am in talk with our design team that whether the updated initial > settings for B1 are also applicable for B0.

I will submit a new revision of the lan8670 revc + disable collision detection pathset where CD is disabled regardless of operating mode. R
