Kernel for A64 git

[longsleep]

I just released a new Kernel build line "pine64gmac" which has a possible fix for the Ethernet Gigabit issue which happens on some boards. The fix is based on a patch provided by tllim (thanks!).

For now consider this a test release and you can switch to the pine64gmac Kernel line easily with

Code:

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/pine64_update_kernel.sh) latest gmac

You can switch back to the normal Kernel line with

Code:

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/pine64_update_kernel.sh) latest default

(assume the Network still works with the gmac Kernel ).

If feedback is good, this fix will go into the default Kernel. So let me know how it goes.

To check if the fix is applied on boot:

Code:

root@pine64:~# dmesg|grep 'init ephy'
[   16.070919] init ephy for pine64
