> Subject: [PATCH V1] arm64: dts: imx8mp: fix FEC can't work when attached to
> generic phy driver
>
> Some users report that FEC can't work on i.MX8MP EVK board, it brings
> inconvenience. The root cause should be FEC controller attached to generic phy
> driver, as Realtek phy driver is built as module in the defconfig file
> (CONFIG_REALTEK_PHY=m), so it is unavailable. If provide "reset-gpios"
> property, it will reset phy when probed, and no way to re-config phy since we
> use the generic phy dirver, which leads FEC can't work.
>
> There are two ways to let FEC work:
>
> 1. If you want to use generic phy dirver, please delete "reset-gpios"
> property, keep power-on strapping pins configurations.
>
> 2. If you want to use Realtek phy driver, please buildin driver
> (CONFIG_REALTEK_PHY=y), and had better add another two reset
> properties:
> reset-assert-us = <20000>;
> reset-deassert-us = <150000>;
> According to RTL8211 serials PHY datasheet, for a complete PHY reset, reset
> pin must be asserted low for at least 10ms for internal regulator.
> Wait for at least 72ms (for internal circuits settling time) before accessing the
> PHY register.
>
> This patch selects method 1, since users may waste time to find out FEC failure,
> in most cases, they just want to use networking to debug other modules.
