of_net: Fix residues after of_get_nvmem_mac_address removal

2019-04-19T18:58:30Z

I've discovered following discrepancy in the bindings/net/ethernet.txt documentation, where it states following: - nvmem-cells: phandle, reference to an nvmem node for the MAC address; - nvmem-cell-names: string, should be "mac-address" if nvmem is to be.. which is actually misleading and confusing. There are only two ethernet drivers in the tree, cadence/macb and davinci which supports this properties. This nvmem-cell* properties were introduced in commit 9217e566bdee ("of_net: Implement of_get_nvmem_mac_address helper"), but commit afa64a72b862 ("of: net: kill of_get_nvmem_mac_address()") forget to properly clean up this parts. So this patch fixes the documentation by moving the nvmem-cell* properties at the appropriate places. While at it, I've removed unused include as well.

of_net: Implement of_get_nvmem_mac_address helper

2018-03-30T14:40:18Z

It's common practice to store MAC addresses for network interfaces into nvmem devices. However the code to actually do this in the kernel lacks, so this patch adds of_get_nvmem_mac_address() for drivers to obtain the address from an nvmem cell provider. This is particulary useful on devices where the ethernet interface cannot be configured by the bootloader, for example because it's in an FPGA.

of_net: factor out repetitive code from of_get_mac_address()

2015-03-29T07:56:17Z

of_get_mac_address() basically does the same thing thrice, every time with a different property name, so it makes sense to factor out the repetitive code into separate function. While at it, we can start using ETH_ALEN instead of the bare number and drop unnecessary parens around the property length check. The resulting ARM object file is 100 bytes less in size than before the patch. Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov Acked-by: David S. Miller Acked-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

net: phy: re-design phy_modes to be self-contained

2014-02-13T00:08:20Z

of_get_phy_mode() uses a local array to map phy_interface_t values from include/linux/net/phy.h to a string which is read from the 'phy-mode' or 'phy-connection-type' property. In preparation for exposing the PHY interface mode through sysfs, perform the following: - mode phy_modes from drivers/of/of_net.c to include/linux/phy.h such that it is right below the phy_interface_t enum - make it a static inline function returning the string such that we can use it by just including include/linux/net/phy.h - add a PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_MAX enum value to guard the iteration in of_get_phy_mode() Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

of: make of_get_phy_mode parse 'phy-connection-type'

2014-02-03T14:19:39Z

Per the ePAPR v1.1 specification, 'phy-connection-type' is the canonical property name for describing an Ethernet to PHY connection type. Make sure that of_get_phy_mode() also attempts to parse that property and update the comments mentioning 'phy-mode' to also include 'phy-connection-type'.
