[net-next RFC PATCH v3 4/4] dt-bindings: Document bindings for Marvell Aquantia PHY

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Document bindings for Marvell Aquantia PHY.

The Marvell Aquantia PHY require a firmware to work correctly and there
at least 3 way to load this firmware.

Describe all the different way and document the binding "firmware-name"
to load the PHY firmware from userspace.

Changes v3:
- Make DT description more OS agnostic
- Use custom select to fix dtbs checks
Changes v2:
- Add DT patch

+description: |
+  Marvell Aquantia Ethernet PHY require a firmware to be loaded to actually
+  work.
+
+  This can be done and is implemented by OEM in 3 different way:
+    - Attached SPI directly to the PHY with the firmware. The PHY will
+      self load the firmware in the presence of this configuration.
+    - Dedicated partition on system NAND with firmware in it. NVMEM
+      subsystem will be used and the declared NVMEM cell will load
+      the firmware to the PHY using the PHY mailbox interface.
+    - Manually provided firmware loaded from a file in the filesystem.
+
+  If declared, NVMEM will always take priority over filesystem provided
+  firmware.
