Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

-- Package-specific info:

Boot method: Followed the instruction in the README file
Image version:
https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/armhf/daily/netboot/SD-card-images/
dated 2021-01-30 (also tried 2021-02-06)
Date: 2021-02-06

Machine: Cubox-i4P
Partitions: Didn't get that far in the installation

Base System Installation Checklist:
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it

Initial boot: [ok]
Detect network card: [failed] could not proceed
Overall install: [failed ]

Comments/Problems:

I downloaded the two-part image from [1] dated 2021-01-30 and tried to
install it on my Cubox-i4.

It booted fine but when it got to the "Detect network hardware" phase,
it failed and said:

> No Ethernet card was detected. If you know the name of the driver
> needed by your Ethernet card, you can select it from the list.
> Driver needed by your Ethernet card:

and gave a long list of available ethernet drivers, none of which seemed to be relevant.

I tried it again, this time with the components dated 2021-02-06.
I was hoping that the problem was transient and might have been fixed in
the intervening week, but I still got the same result: "No Ethernet card was detected."

Vagrant says:
> Pretty sure it is a kernel bug, since I can make it go away on a similar
> system by downgrading to linux 5.9.x. Please CC me on the report and
> I'll try to contribute what I can!

Log files attached to this report are from a successful Buster installation on the same hardware,
in hopes they might be some help...

I can confirm this is an issue on hummingboard-i2ex, cubox-i4x4 and
wandboard quad, all of which are similar imx6 systems, and all of which
use the SoC's gigabit ethernet interface.

I've had better luck with linux 5.9.x and 4.19.x versions, although
possibly backported patches on the stable branches may also trigger
similar issues, just not consistantly. 5.10.x seems to consistantly
result in no working ethernet interface.

Marked as found in 5.10.13-1, but I believe this affects all 5.10.x
versions I have seen.

Possibly related to changes to the mdio interface infrastructure, but
this pretty much needs someone to able take the time to git bisect and
boot test the issue...

I'm also experiencing periodic issues on 4.19.x:

fec 2188000.ethernet eth0: MDIO read timeout

Not sure if that is related or a separate issue... there the ethernet
interface is present, but periodically becomes unusable, and bringing
the interface down and up again "fixes" the problem:

$ ip a

This looks to be fixed in '5.10.38-1', at least on the single Wandboard
Quad (rev C1) I tested, networking works at boot. I'll update the kernel
on the boards that are CI workers and report back in a couple days if
the network is stable.

I just tried this using the two-part uSD-card image at [1]. The problem is still present. Can anyone suggest which of the ethernet drivers to try in the long list it says is available?

Thanks!

I neglected to mention that my test machine here is a SolidRun CuBox i4Pro (2 GB RAM) model # I4P-300D .

What can I do to help debug this?
And again: Can anyone suggest which of the ethernet drivers to try in the long list it says is available?

Thanks,
Rick

Hi!
Is there any estimate of when the assumed fix (linux/5.10.40-1) will show up in the installer at [1] ? I'd love to test it!
Failing that, is there some other place I can get an installer SDcard image with that fix?

It should already be there kernel version 5.10.38-1 had it, 5.10.40-1
should also have it.

I only tested it outside of debian-installer (e.g. upgrading kernel on
an already installed system), so it is also possible that more modules
are needed in one of the kernel udebs used by the installer, or that
you're experiencing a different issue from the one that was fixed. I'll
try to test debian-installer on Cubox-i4pro to see if I still have an
issue.

Should be "soon", cf. #988442.

Just tested d-i daily[1] on a Cubox-I4pro, and it definitely fails to
find the network card.

Same hardware, same kernel finds it just fine on an already installed
system... so this most likely means we need to add more modules to one
of the kernel .udebs.

And same behavior on a wandboard quad...

What's more confusing, is the ethernet is CONFIG_FEC which is enabled as
a built-in, but still needs gpio-mxc to actually function!

Pushed a fix to git:

Wow! Thanks! At least I now know I'm not crazy... Any idea how long it will be before the fix is in something I can download and install with?

Enjoy!
