Hi Team,

 

We designed custom board using NXP iMX8MQ processor. We used Intel i210 ethernet controller in our design and able to bring up that interface.

 

But, we facing issue on Wake on LAN functionality of i210 controller.

Logs are attached as below.

root@imx8mqpicoitx:~# ifconfig eth1

root@imx8mqpicoitx:~#

 

There is wake-on functionality is ON as per above logs. When I freeze the processor and send magic packet from another system our processor does not coming out from freeze mode.

 

Is there any configuration missing from my side? Or, the WOL functionality is not worked in i210 Linux driver?

 

Let me know if you require more information from my side.

 

Thanks & regards,

Nirmal

Hello, @NK89​:

 

Thank you for contacting Intel Embedded Community.

 

Could you please let us know how many units of the project related to this circumstance have been manufactured? How many are affected? Could you please give the failure rate? Also, could you please list the sources that you have used to design it and if it has been verified by Intel?

 

Could you please explain the procedure followed to obtain the cited driver?

 

We are waiting for your answer.
