New SPI-Ethernet-Adapter without modifying esp-idf

[nxt518]

Developing a QCA7000-Driver (Powerline-Adapter, similar to a SPI-Ethernet-Adapter) for the ESP32.

I modified ethernet_low_level_output and ethernetif_input in ethernetif.c so that they are writing the buffers directly to/from the QCA7000.

Is there a more elegant way to access the tcpip_adapter without modifying ESP-IDF?
I found tcpip_adapter_eth_input in tcpip_adapter.h for writing input directly.
Is there also some equivalent "highlevel" output function?

Hello @nxt518 Have you found a better way?

[nxt518]

I did not find another way than using ethernetif_input and modified ethernet_low_level_output, except using modified nettestif.c.

So my ESP-IDF is modified, but the QCA7000 works reliably with tcpip_adapter.

Hello !

I’m trini doing exactly same things for same chip . We can exchange contacts and put 2 brains on ?

Hello! I'm contemplating using the ESP32 with a QCA7000 chip. I understand you were able to make it work? Did it work reliably?
Is there any chance you are willing to share the modifications you made to esp-idf?

Thanks in advance!

[giorgio80]

would be possible to share mods done to etherif to make qca working ?

Thx

Hi,
I'm also interested in getting the ESP32 to work with a QCA7000 chip regarding Ethernet via SPI.
Would it be possible to get the modified src files?

Greetings

Hallo,

I have issue regarding understanding the interface the IP stack.
Is it possible to share your running code?

Best Regards,
