[net-next PATCH v6 1/6] Documentation: ACPI: DSD: Document MDIO PHY

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

 



Introduce ACPI mechanism to get PHYs registered on a MDIO bus and
provide them to be connected to MAC.

An ACPI node property "mdio-handle" is introduced to reference the
MDIO bus on which PHYs are registered with autoprobing method used
by mdiobus_register().

Describe properties "phy-channel" and "phy-mode"

+=========================
+MDIO bus and PHYs in ACPI
+=========================
+
+The PHYs on an mdiobus are probed and registered using mdiobus_register().
+Later, for connecting these PHYs to MAC, the PHYs registered on the
+mdiobus have to be referenced.
+
+mdio-handle
+-----------
+For each MAC node, a property "mdio-handle" is used to reference the
+MDIO bus on which the PHYs are registered. On getting hold of the MDIO
+bus, use find_phy_device() to get the PHY connected to the MAC.
+
+phy-channel
+-----------
+Property "phy-channel" defines the address of the PHY on the mdiobus.
+
+phy-mode
+--------
+Property "phy-mode" defines the type of PHY interface.
+
+An example of this is shown below::
+

+		 Package () {
+		     Package () {"phy-channel", 1},
+		     Package () {"phy-mode", "rgmii-id"},
+		     Package () {"mdio-handle", Package (){\_SB.MDI0}}
+	      }
+	   })
+	}

+	      Package () {
+		 Package () {"little-endian", 1},
+	      }
+	    })
+	  } // end of MDI0
+	}
+
+b) Platform Component
+---------------------
+	Scope(\_SB.MDI0)
+	{
+	  Device(PHY1) {
+	    Name (_ADR, 0x1)
+	  } // end of PHY1
+
+	  Device(PHY2) {
+	    Name (_ADR, 0x2)
+	  } // end of PHY2
+	}
