[Solved, this code works!] ESP32-S3 + W5500 Ethernet no link up

Postby ajosev5 » Wed Nov 08, 2023 9:01 pm

Thank you, this is solved. There is a yet undetermined fault in the hardware design on our custom PCB. Connecting via SPI to an external W5500 ethernet module works - Link Up, IP address acquired, and ping success. A good lesson to test software with modules first.

Hello, I'd like to check if anyone can find something incorrect about the code I am using to initialize the ethernet driver with a W5500 SPI/Ethernet chip, on my custom board.

Hardware: ESP32-WROOM-S3 + Wiznet W5500
IDF version 5.0.3

At this point, I am able to confirm communication via SPI to the W5500, through the IDF driver. I am receiving a version 4 back in w5500_verify_id(), and I also wrote a bit of code to verify I am reading the MAC that I wrote to the chip on initialization - w5500_read(emac, W5500_REG_MAC, macRead, 6). However, I am not getting a Link Up event from the driver when I plug it into a router, or any other device. No activity LEDs. Want to make sure, as I study the hardware design, that I'm not missing any "gotchas" in how I am initializing the device. Below is my full code having to do with initializing ethernet.

Code: Select all

static void EthernetHardwareEventHandler(void* arg, esp_event_base_t event_base,
                                         int32_t event_id, void* event_data) {
    uint8_t mac_addr[6] = { 0 };
    esp_eth_handle_t eth_handle = *(esp_eth_handle_t*) event_data;

    switch (event_id) {
    case ETHERNET_EVENT_CONNECTED:
        esp_eth_ioctl(eth_handle, ETH_CMD_G_MAC_ADDR, mac_addr);
        ESP_LOGI(TAG, "Ethernet Link Up");
        ESP_LOGI(TAG, "Ethernet HW Addr %02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x",
                 mac_addr[0], mac_addr[1], mac_addr[2], mac_addr[3], mac_addr[4], mac_addr[5]);
        break;
    case ETHERNET_EVENT_DISCONNECTED:
        ESP_LOGI(TAG, "Ethernet Link Down");
        break;
    case ETHERNET_EVENT_START:
        ESP_LOGI(TAG, "Ethernet Started");
        break;
    case ETHERNET_EVENT_STOP:
        ESP_LOGI(TAG, "Ethernet Stopped");
        break;
    default:
        break;
    }
}

static void EthernetIpEventHandler(void* arg, esp_event_base_t event_base, int32_t event_id, void* event_data) {
    ip_event_got_ip_t* event = (ip_event_got_ip_t*) event_data;
    const esp_netif_ip_info_t* ip_info = &event->ip_info;

    ESP_LOGI(TAG, "Ethernet Got IP Address");
    ESP_LOGI(TAG, "~~~~~~~~~~~");
    ESP_LOGI(TAG, "ETHIP:" IPSTR, IP2STR(&ip_info->ip));
    ESP_LOGI(TAG, "ETHMASK:" IPSTR, IP2STR(&ip_info->netmask));
    ESP_LOGI(TAG, "ETHGW:" IPSTR, IP2STR(&ip_info->gw));
    ESP_LOGI(TAG, "~~~~~~~~~~~");
    memcpy(&myEthIP, &event->ip_info, sizeof(myEthIP));
}

void ethernet_init(void)
{
    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_netif_init());

    //  Create instance(s) of esp-netif for SPI Ethernet(s)
    esp_netif_inherent_config_t esp_netif_config = ESP_NETIF_INHERENT_DEFAULT_ETH();
    esp_netif_config_t cfg_spi = {
        .base = &esp_netif_config,
        .stack = ESP_NETIF_NETSTACK_DEFAULT_ETH
    };
    esp_netif_t* eth_netif_spi = NULL;
    char if_key_str[10];
    char if_desc_str[10];
    char num_str[3];
    itoa(0, num_str, 10);
    strcat(strcpy(if_key_str, "ETH_SPI_"), num_str);
    strcat(strcpy(if_desc_str, "eth"), num_str);
    esp_netif_config.if_key = if_key_str;
    esp_netif_config.if_desc = if_desc_str;
    esp_netif_config.route_prio = 30;
    eth_netif_spi = esp_netif_new(&cfg_spi);

    // Init MAC and PHY configs to default
    eth_mac_config_t mac_config_spi = ETH_MAC_DEFAULT_CONFIG();

    eth_phy_config_t phy_config_spi = ETH_PHY_DEFAULT_CONFIG();
    phy_config_spi.autonego_timeout_ms = 0;
    phy_config_spi.reset_gpio_num = -1;

    // Init SPI bus
    spi_bus_config_t buscfg = {
        .miso_io_num = ETHERNET_SPI_MOSI_GPIO,
        .mosi_io_num = ETHERNET_SPI_MISO_GPIO,
        .sclk_io_num = ETHERNET_SPI_CLK_GPIO,
        .quadwp_io_num = -1,
        .quadhd_io_num = -1,
    };
    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(spi_bus_initialize(SPI3_HOST, &buscfg, SPI_DMA_CH_AUTO));

    // Configure SPI interface and Ethernet driver for specific SPI module
    esp_eth_mac_t* mac_spi;
    esp_eth_phy_t* phy_spi;
    esp_eth_handle_t eth_handle_spi = NULL;
    spi_device_interface_config_t spi_devcfg = {
        .command_bits = 16, // Actually it's the address phase in W5500 SPI frame
        .address_bits = 8,  // Actually it's the control phase in W5500 SPI frame
        .spics_io_num = ETHERNET_SPI_CS_GPIO,
        .mode = 0,
        .clock_speed_hz = 33 * 1000 * 1000,
        .queue_size = 20
    };

    // Set remaining GPIO numbers and configuration used by the SPI module
    phy_config_spi.phy_addr = 1;

    eth_w5500_config_t w5500_config = ETH_W5500_DEFAULT_CONFIG(SPI3_HOST, &spi_devcfg);
    w5500_config.int_gpio_num = ETHERNET_SPI_INT_GPIO;
    mac_spi = esp_eth_mac_new_w5500(&w5500_config, &mac_config_spi);
    phy_spi = esp_eth_phy_new_w5500(&phy_config_spi);

    esp_eth_config_t eth_config_spi = ETH_DEFAULT_CONFIG(mac_spi, phy_spi);
    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_eth_driver_install(&eth_config_spi, &eth_handle_spi));

    uint8_t mac_addr[6];
    esp_read_mac(mac_addr, ESP_MAC_ETH);

    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_eth_ioctl(eth_handle_spi, ETH_CMD_S_MAC_ADDR, mac_addr));

    // attach Ethernet driver to TCP/IP stack
    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_netif_attach(eth_netif_spi, esp_eth_new_netif_glue(eth_handle_spi)));

    // Register user defined event handers
    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_event_handler_register(ETH_EVENT, ESP_EVENT_ANY_ID, &EthernetHardwareEventHandler, NULL));
    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_event_handler_register(IP_EVENT, IP_EVENT_ETH_GOT_IP, &EthernetIpEventHandler, NULL));

    /* start Ethernet driver state machine */
    ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_eth_start(eth_handle_spi));
    
}
I am calling ethernet_init(), and am getting ETHERNET_EVENT_START through EthernetHardwareEventHandler() after I call init. However, as mentioned, the problem is I am not getting a Link Up status from the chip (ETHERNET_EVENT_CONNECTED) when I plug it into something. For the initialization code, I basically referenced the IDF guide page and ethernet example. I would be happy to hear any suggestions, things to try, or flaws in my initialization. Thank you very much!

Did you first try any of the W5500 SPI boards out there first ?

No, but I did order a couple today to try. Good suggestion, and probably what I should have done first. I will report back results.
