Hi,
I am using the BF537, and I want to use the ethernet function of BF537.
we know that there is a MAC in BF537, and I also found that there is a driver in the /linux-2.6.x/drivers/net/bfin_mac.c/.h
but I don't know how to use it, anyone has a application based on this? Or how to use make the BF537 work with the ethernet?
I have a board used BF537+LAN83C185(PHY)+RJ45, but I don't know how to debug it.
Do I need a application on the PC, or how to make the board communicate with the PC or Internet with the RJ45?
Thanks all

what exactly are you trying to do ? run Linux ? write a bare metal application ? something else ?

The goal is to setup the environment,and I can download the code into the dsp through the RJ45.
It is ok whether there is a linux, or not. I just want to get the sample way to reach the goal, and can use some source that are open.

we only support the Blackfin MAC driver under Linux/u-boot. if you wish to use the driver in a different environment, you're on your own.
if you want to get u-boot/Linux running on your system, review the documentation:
