> MACPHYC_TX_DELAY_63_UNIT means set MAC TX clk delay to 63 units (similar to the "tx-delay" in dwmac-rk.c). However, the manual does not clearly describe the time span of one unit, after consulting engineer of Ingenic, I learned that the value is recommended to be set to 63.

Please wrap your text to around 75 characters per line.

I suspect you don't understand RGMII delays. As i said, normally, the
MAC does not add delays, the PHY does. Please take a closer look at
this.
