Maybe we need to add the ASL for mdio as well, the sample is shown below:
Device (MDIO) {
Name(_HID, "HISI00B1")
Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate (){
Memory32Fixed (ReadWrite, 0x803c0000 , 0x10000)
})
Device (PHY0) {
Name (_DSD, Package () {
ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
Package () {
Package () {"phy-addr", 0},
Package () {"ethernet-phy", "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22"},
}
})
}
Device (PHY1) {
Name (_DSD, Package () {
ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
Package () {
Package () {"phy-addr", 1},
Package () {"ethernet-phy", "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22"},
}
})
}
}
