it seems that the network chip has gone in 4.5 (NSA310s, haven't tested the NSA320s yet)
Edit
seems to work on my NSA320s

I' see another thing in the log:

Now that's a puzzle! 310s and 320s are identical.

pengu,
Could you verify it again by running the same stick on NSA310S and NSA320S?
The PHY is completly absent. So the above patch would not have been the cause.

There is another PHY related change that is more likeky the cause.

OK. I finally figured out this problem with the NSA310S Ethernet. It was the Marvell PHY code change.
So kernel 4.5 is working OK. I will release it when I can.

@pengu,
There is still something I don't understand and not sure how to make changes for NSA320S: Why did it work on your NSA320S.
Could you verify it again by running the same stick on NSA310S and NSA320S? and post dmesg for the NSA320S.

Johnny,
As soon as pengu can report about the NSA320S then I'd know it's good for release or not.

eine,
Thoroughly read the first post of this thread, the info is there, you must have skipped it. (Yes, I know it's a very crowded post and a pain to read at this stage, but...just do it. :-p).
Also, be aware that after every update/package install that changes initramfs you need to run the mkimage command again to regenerate uInitrd from teh new initrd.img*.
The kernel is there, you just wrongly assumed that 4.4.0 would be nominated like this, with the trailing zero. It is not, look for 4.4, it is there. TBH, it tricked me too for a couple of seconds. ;-)

@bodhi;
the same kernel / stick was used on NSA310s and NSA320s.
With unpatched ethernet driver, the LAN / PHY is absent as you mentioned.
With patched ethernet driver, I get the mentionend error while initializing the LAN / PHY.
On NSA320s it's no problem with both Kernels (unpatched 4.5 rm-1 and patched 4.5 rm-2)

Not sure I understand this. The NSA320S is not in the mainline kernel. If it is not patched, then you can't run it.
Is the kirkwood-nsa320s.dtb in the stick /boot/dts folder? if it is then it was already patched.

@pengu,
Appreciate the boot logs you sent. You know what? I think you might have a different Ethernet chip in your box. At least it behaves like one.
I think it's OK for me to release new kernel, and let users who have the NSA320S report the finding. If you could, try it in a new USB rootfs for the NSA320S, to make sure that it work for others.

Sure! post new module names if you know the exact names. Or post specific devices, if you're not sure about name.

I'm using the NSA320s dtb created by "make dtbs" on a patched earlier kernel.
(4.2 or 4.4 I think)
Edit
new situation:
your just released 4.5 kernel isn't working on my NSA320s while my unpatched 4,5 and the second one patched with the 4.4 patches is working fine

Would you please use a new test rootfs 4.4 on a stick, install the complete kernel (meaning extract the DTB also).

done ... with the new rootfs .. kernel 4.4.0 .. the NSA320s is booting fine.
After installing linux-4.5 (haven't touched the DTBs) it's also booting fine ...
deleted the "dts" folder and unpacked the "new" one ...
rebooted .. I couldn't reach the box same as with my modified rootfs based on your 3.18.5 "rootfs"
seems that I have to look at the serial :-(
Edit
Serial attached .. the LAN is now gone on my NSA320s

Thanks pengu!
That's why I found it strange. Your box ethernet acts as though it is not the same chip as the one in NSA310s. And we "knew" that it is the same!

Just wanted to say hello to everybody!
Greetings from me, my t5325 and kernel 4.5
Sofar everything also works with new the kernel.
Module "marvell_cesa" is loaded.
Tonight I will check sata booting - soldering the tiny caps was a pita but seems to have worked.
Cheers,
