But to satisfy the marvell,dsa binding[1] I need to tell it the Ethernet port it is connected to. The answer might be in the PCI bindings but the urls in the documentation[2] don't appear to be valid anymore. > > Is it possible to enumerate PCI devices in the .dts? Or is there a way of satisfying the dsa requirements without knowing the Ethernet device? > In general, it is possible, and we do that on PowerPC, but it may be that there are parts missing on ARM and you have to try it out. In particular, you need to know the address of the PCI device and then create a device node that will be associated with the pci_dev->dev.of_node pointer.
