Hi Joseph,

[please keep the history of the conversation when replying]

Is it a original P212 board, or a board based on the P212 ref design ?

I'm currently testing the v4.13-rc2 on the official P212 board we received from Amlogic
and using iperf3 in both directions, I have an issue after a few minutes running iperf3 with :

# while true ; do iperf3 -c 192.168.1.21 ; iperf3 -c 192.168.1.21 -R ; done

That cycles between the two iperf directions.

After a few minutes, it stalls with :

Connecting to host 192.168.1.21, port 5201
[  4] local 192.168.1.183 port 51286 connected to 192.168.1.21 port 5201

And then, after:
# ifconfig eth0 down
# ifconfig eth0 up

It cycles between :
[ 1483.009919] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 100Mbps/Full - flow control rx/tx
[ 1487.105725] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: Link is Down
[ 1490.177943] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 100Mbps/Full - flow control rx/tx
[ 1494.273713] meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet eth0: Link is Down

and so on.

And this patch does not fix this at all.

It seems to be more a PHY driver issue here.

Could you share the results with the same command ?
