Please enable CONFIG_ENC28J60=m

With 3.18 we have moved to device tree based configuration, so we no longer need to put SPI connection specific information into a board file. Could we now enable ENC28J60 as a module so that both armv6 and amrv7 distribution kernels support this ethernet controller?

Thanks!

Looks okay.

Ask me nicely and I'll create you an overlay to get it loaded.

[RadekHvizdos]

Pretty please :)

You would make my day.

The module is enabled in latest rpi-update kernel.

Thanks a million. That makes adding the eth0 on my A+ so much easier.

I haven't forgotten the overlay - I will get back to it eventually.

Wow, this is really good news.

The overlay and slightly tweaked module are now in the rpi-3.18.y branch. Build with 'dtbs' as a make target, and copy arch/arm/boot/dtbs/enc28j60-overlay.dtb to /boot/overlays, add 'dtoverlay=enc28j60' and reboot.

@pelwell's overlay is in latest rpi-update firmware.
