Hi,

thanks for the quick review.

Add all the usart nodes for the flexcom block. There was already
an usart node for the flexcom3 block. But it missed the DMA
channels.

And it would be good to go though a different patch.

sure

Although the DMA channels are specified, DMA is not
enabled by default because break detection doesn't work with DMA.

Keep the nodes disabled by default.

Are the usart blocks in lan966x 1:1 compatible with what is is sam9260?
In
case not it may worth to have a new compatible here, for lan966x, such
that
when new features will be implemented in usart driver for lan966x the
old
DT (this one) will work with the new kernel implementation.

During my review of the inital dtsi patch, I've asked the same question
[1]
and I was told they are the same.

At least this exact usart compatible is already in this file. I was
under
the impression, that was the least controversial compatible :)

OK.


But you'll need to tell me if they are the same or not, I don't have
any clue what microchip has reused.

From software point of view comparing registers should be good, as far as I can tell. All AT91 datasheet should be available. I though you have checked one against LAN966. At the moment I don't have a DS for LAN966. I'll find
one and have a look.

So my train of thought was like: even if the registers are the same I
cannot be sure that it is the exact same IP and will behave the same.
Therefore, it is something only microchip can answer.

You can find the registers at
https://microchip-ung.github.io/lan9668_reginfo/reginfo_LAN9668.html

I'm not aware of any "classic" datasheet.
