AM3359: PRU Ethernet switch

Part Number: AM3359
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AMIC110

Hi,

 

Could you tell me the schedule of Ethernet Switch on PRU-ICSS of AM335x or AMIC110 with Linux ?

 

The customer wants to use it, but the release note of Processor SDK Linux 06_00_00_07 describes as follows;

 

What You Get

With the PRU-ICSS Ethernet support, you get two (or four, on the AM571x IDK and K2G ICE) additional 100 Mbps Ethernet interfaces that show up just like any other Ethernet interface in Linux. These interfaces are there ‘out-of-the-box’ in the latest Linux Processor SDK when ran on any of the boards shown above. All you need to do is plug in an Ethernet cable and bring the interface up from the console (discussed below).

The current implementation does not support Ethernet switching within the PRU-ICSS. The provided PRU firmwares only support ‘dual emac’ mode in this release of the Linux Processor SDK.

 

 

They know that PSDK RTOS supports Ethernet Switch on PRU-ICSS, but they want to use Linux.

 

Best regards,

Hideaki
