From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@xxxxxxxxxx> Check ethernet controller DT node for "mdio" subnode and use it with of_mdiobus_register() when present. That allows specifying MDIO and its PHY devices in a standard DT based way. This is required for BCM53573 SoC support. That family is sometimes called Northstar (by marketing?) but is quite different from it. It uses different CPU(s) and many different hw blocks. One of shared blocks in BCM53573 is Ethernet controller. Switch however is not SRAB accessible (as it Northstar) but is MDIO attached. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- V2: Update commit message to reference BCM53573. I thought it's worth it after Florian's question. Florian suggested I may need of_node_put() but it doesn't seem that of_get_child_by_name() or of_mdiobus_register() inc. any refcount. --- drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bgmac-bcma-mdio.c | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bgmac-bcma-mdio.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bgmac-bcma-mdio.c index 6ce80cbcb48e..086739e4f40a 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bgmac-bcma-mdio.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bgmac-bcma-mdio.c @@ -10,6 +10,7 @@ #include <linux/bcma/bcma.h> #include <linux/brcmphy.h> +#include <linux/of_mdio.h> #include "bgmac.h" static bool bcma_mdio_wait_value(struct bcma_device *core, u16 reg, u32 mask, @@ -211,6 +212,7 @@ struct mii_bus *bcma_mdio_mii_register(struct bgmac *bgmac) { struct bcma_device *core = bgmac->bcma.core; struct mii_bus *mii_bus; + struct device_node *np; int err; mii_bus = mdiobus_alloc(); @@ -229,7 +231,9 @@ struct mii_bus *bcma_mdio_mii_register(struct bgmac *bgmac) mii_bus->parent = &core->dev; mii_bus->phy_mask = ~(1 << bgmac->phyaddr); - err = mdiobus_register(mii_bus); + np = of_get_child_by_name(core->dev.of_node, "mdio"); + + err = of_mdiobus_register(mii_bus, np); if (err) { dev_err(&core->dev, "Registration of mii bus failed\n"); goto err_free_bus; -- 2.26.2
