Changes in v3:
- Consider the v3 a new implmentation - almost nothing was
left from v2. Thus also invalidate any former review - sorry.
- Dropped the need for the mdio {} node, as this node is
only used when there is dedicated HW support for the mdio.
- Added so PHY child nodes to ethernet nodes are registered,
and as part of registration the PHY nodes are reset if
the reset-gpios property is present.
- Further dropped that the parsed info is stored in the bus,
as we only do reset once, thus there is no need to
save the info from the DT
- Futher dropped helper function to reset. They was not needed
- Named the gpio with the name of the PHY node
in the DT. This makes it unique and easier to recognize.
Changes in v2:
- Added patch to enable Davicom PHY on at91sam9263ek - evaluation kit
- Fix so we do reset before comunicating with the PHY
- Rename to mdio_reset()
- Reference correct binding file in commit log (mdio.txt)
- Tested on at91sam9263ek
The at91sam9263ek kit do not require the reset like my
proprietary board, so no DT changes required
Intro:
The following patches was necessary to get networking
operational on my proprietary target.
The target is at91sam9263 based with a Davicom PHY.
The Davicom PHY is a straight copy form the Linux
kernel with the interrupt routine removed and
minor adjustments to the rest.
The davicom PHY would not work until it had seen a reset
cycle - which I think may be an artifact of the board design.
To fix the reset issue I have implemented support for the
reset-gpios binding (see net/phy.txt bindings).
A minimal implmentation was done, just enough to get
my target running.
I could have implemented something in macb -
but I preferred the more generic solution.
Also included are a patch that for the at91sam9263ek
evaluation board. The patch adds several extra tools
that are usefull for testing, and enable the Davicom PHY.
