I've made some progress reworking the CPSW driver for
BeagleBone and would appreciate any feedback:
https://github.com/kientzle/cpsw
I believe I've resolved the most pressing stability
problems; the driver properly survives cables
being unplugged and replugged, modules being
loaded and unloaded while the network is
busy, etc.
The most obvious remaining issue: TX interrupts
still just stop occasionally. But the watchdog now
consistently detects and resets everything within
a few seconds, so that's much less of a headache.
I hope to commit this to FreeBSD-CURRENT within
the week.
