+Optional properties: +- port-id: should be '0','1' or '2'. +- phy-addr: MDIO address of the PHY. +- local-mac-address: see ethernet.txt file in the same directory. +I believe new bindings should not use "phy-addr" properties, but instead use a phy-handle property pointing to a phy device instead.That's the MDIO address of the PHY. It's a bit difficult to use a phy device as the driver uses the libphy. And that would break the platform using it. Or maybe you have something in mind?I don't understand what you mean. Doesn't libphy imply using a phy_device? What I meant was that you should be able to just call the standard of_phy_connect() and other interfaces to deal with phylib.
Yes sure, I read again my answer and... well I should have had a better look on the matter. Anyway, as the proposed binding seems to be OK with you, I'll update the series accordingly. Antoine -- Antoine T?nart, Free Electrons Embedded Linux, Kernel and Android engineering http://free-electrons.com
