The number of MACs supported by an Aspeed SoC is defined by "macs_num"
under the SoC model, that is two for the AST2400 and AST2500 and four
for the AST2600. The model initializes the maximum number of supported
MACs but the number of realized devices is capped by the number of
network device back-ends defined on the command line. This can leave
unrealized devices hanging around in the QOM composition tree.
To get virtual hardware that matches the physical hardware, you have
to pass exactly as many -nic options as there are MACs, and some of
them must be -nic none:
* Machines ast2500-evb, palmetto-bmc, romulus-bmc, sonorapass-bmc,
swift-bmc, and witherspoon-bmc: two -nic, and the second one must be
-nic none.
* Machine ast2600-evb: four -nic, the first one must be -nic none.
* Machine tacoma-bmc: four nic, the first two and the last one must be
-nic none.
Modify the machine initialization to define which MACs are attached to
a network device back-end using a bit-field property "macs-mask" and
let the SoC realize all network devices.
The default setting of "macs-mask" is "use MAC0" only, which works for
all our AST2400 and AST2500 machines. The AST2600 machines have
different configurations. The AST2600 EVB machine activates MAC1, MAC2
and MAC3 and the Tacoma BMC machine activates MAC2.
Incompatible CLI change: -nic options now apply to *active* MACs:
MAC1, MAC2, MAC3 for ast2600-evb, MAC2 for tacoma-bmc, and MAC0 for
all the others.
The machines now always get all MACs as they should. Visible in "info
qom-tree", here's the change for tacoma-bmc:
