I see you use zImage (bootpImage) for booting. The stock U-Boot
image from Cavium has incorrect (non-mainline) machid. You have
to specify a correct one and thus use uImage.

So, you need to build the kernel with the following command:

make LOADADDR=0x200000 uImage

And boot with these commands:

setenv machid ad8
setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,38400 ip=on
tftp 100000 uImage
bootm 100000

Thanks,
