Regards go to Michael Grzeschik who forced me to work on this by importing the borked mv643xx driver from u-boot. Compared to the former patches sent by Michael, this driver now separates mbus handling, mdio bus driver, and ethernet driver. The mbus handling can be reused on all MVEBU SoCs and is based on what we already have on Linux for it. The mdio bus driver can be reused by Armada 370/XP Neta Ethernet core. I have tested the driver on SolidRun CuBox (Dove) and also on Globalscale Guruplug (Kirkwood). Kirkwood still need some loving care before (88E1121 PHY init, pbl images, ...) so I decided to leave it out of the patch set for now. Patch 1 first reorders drivers/net/{Kconfig,Makefile} alphabetically. Patch 2 then introduces a of_phy_device_connect to allow to connect to a PHY without knowing the corresponding mdio bus. Patches 3, 4, 5 add drivers for the mbus, mdio bus, and Orion GBE respectively. Patch 6 finally re-syncs Dove's DT files with v3.14 Linux DT files. All patches are based on release v2014.02.0 and can also be found on https://github.com/shesselba/barebox-dove.git topic/orion-gbe-v1 Sebastian Hesselbarth (6): net: reorder Kconfig and Makefile alphabetically net: phy: add of_phy_device_connect bus: mvebu: add mbus driver net: phy: add mvebu mdio bus driver net: orion: add ethernet driver ARM: dove: sync with DT files from LinuxLooks fine to me except for the two small comments to the mbus driver.
Sascha, actually I forgot to mention that using a separated mdio driver requires it to be probed before the eth driver. Right now, this is implicity done by reordering the Makefile accordingly. This may be fine for now, but I guess there may be some issues in the future. Have you thought about deferred probing for barebox, too?
