[ECOS] bugs in AT91 Ethernet driver

[Lambrecht Jürgen <J dot Lambrecht at TELEVIC dot com>]

Hello,

I found some bugs in the AT91 EMAC Ethernet driver - /packages/devs/eth/arm/at91/current/src/if_at91.c.
The bugs are present in at91_eth_recv(..) because the author did not understand how scatter-gather lists work I think. In Redboot, the driver works, and maybe also with LWIP, but not with freebsd.

With my fix, RX seems to work on my AT91SAM9260-EK based board.

TX only works for the first packet the freebsd stack sends out (a gratuitous ARP). The next packet it sends as response to an ARP request does not get out. I Monitor with Wireshark. Debugging in ecos is on to print the packet contents. 
The TX ARP packet is a bit strange: it is a broadcast instead of a unicast as it should be to the originator of the ARP request. And also SG[1] is printed - I thought the sg-list should always start with SG[0]?
I don't find a bug in the TX driver..
Maybe somebody else has an idea what could be wrong?

Kind regards,
Juergen

P.S.: in attachment a unix dif; that's not in the correct format for the ecos list I think - I need to take the time to look up how to....


This is my version of at91_eth_recv(..):

static void

              struct eth_drv_sg *sg_list,
              int sg_len)

         bytes_needed_list = sg_list[i].len - bytes_in_list;

             //??? total_bytes already contains buffer_pos; ... 
         }
         else

            bytes_in_buffer = AT91_EMAC_RX_BUFF_SIZE - buffer_pos;
