MTU cannot be changed on dwmac-sun8i. (ip link set eth0 mtu xxx returning EINVAL) This is due to tx_fifo_size being 0, since this value is used to compute valid MTU range. Like dwmac-sunxi (with commit 806fd188ce2a ("net: stmmac: dwmac-sunxi: Provide TX and RX fifo sizes")) dwmac-sun8i need to have tx and rx fifo sizes set. I have used values from datasheets. After this patch, setting a non-default MTU (like 1000) value works and network is still useable.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
