Thanks for first lookup.

Imho delays are read here,so source supports these properties:

https://git.pengutronix.de/cgit/barebox/tree/drivers/net/designware_rockchip.c#n272

And default values are different too. Have not compared source with linux,but there it works with this values.

If understand you right,the rgmii should be possible with the delays.

Is there any way to debug this (or try different values)? Just to get which value is wrong.

The only way i'm thinking about is creating different dtbs and loading then for testing from uboot. But which values to try...i don't know which direction is broken and can try only some "random" values.

I hope this is not the problem that i load barebox from uboot.
regards Frank
