Hi Rob,
since serdev has been merged, i'm currently working on a
suitable ethernet driver for the QCA7000 [1]. In order to provide a plug
and play solution for the network interface i suggest the following
binding, which uses common properties for UART configuration:
* Qualcomm QCA7000 (Ethernet over UART protocol)
Note: The QCA7000 is also useable as a UART slave device.
Required properties:
- compatible : Should be "qca,qca7000-uart"
Optional properties:
- local-mac-address : 6 bytes, Specifies MAC address
- current-speed : Specifies current serial device speed in
bits per second (default = 115200)
- data-bits : Specifies number of data bits (default = 8)
- use-parity : If present, this enables the parity
error detection (default = off)
- odd-parity : If present, this specifies that the parity
of each character must be odd (default = even)
Example:
/* Freescale i.MX28 UART */
auart0: serial@8006a000 {
compatible = "fsl,imx28-auart", "fsl,imx23-auart";
reg = <0x8006a000 0x2000>;
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&auart0_2pins_a>;
status = "okay";
qca7000: ethernet {
compatible = "qca,qca7000-uart";
local-mac-address = [ A0 B0 C0 D0 E0 F0 ];
current-speed = <38400>;
data-bits = <8>;
use-parity;
odd-parity;
};
};
Is it okay for you or do you want a different kind of configuration?
Are there any plans for parity handling?
Thanks
Stefan
P.S.: Sorry for the broken version
