From 6e424b4acac0dba486a97ecd80a78aa0fea43683 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Walle Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2021 17:30:44 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net: use a more deterministic approach to get the active ethernet device If the environment variable "ethact" is not set, the first device in the uclass is returned. This depends on the probing order of the ethernet devices. Moreover it is not not configurable at all. Try to return the ethernet device with sequence id 0 first which then can be configured by the aliases in a device tree. Fall back to the old mechanism in case of an error.
