<br>
First appreciate the implement of etherlabmaster.<br>
I'm devolping a non-native supported ethernet device to be able to work as a RTDM EtherCAT master.<br>
What the device is one part of TI AM335x SoC and is named "cpsw".<br>
Everything smoothly while adapting driver code, building module file, and installing.<br>
But I was stuck by a problem when I try to start EtherCAT master.<br>
Following is my steps and message shown by dmesg:<br>
<br>
# /etc/init.d/ethercat start<br>

Could anyone kindly advice what is the key point to go forword form "waiting device"?<br>
