EMAC device-tree binding (#2)

From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

According to the various comments I got, here's the latest binding for
EMAC:

* The OPB node needs a "clock-frequency" property

* In the EMAC node itself (plb5/plb4/opb/ethernet)

 - name              : "ethernet"
 - device_type       : "network"
 - compatible        : compatible list, contains 2 entries, first is "ibm,emac-CHIP" where
                       CHIP is the host ASIC (440gx, 405gp, axon) and second is either
                       "ibm,emac" or "ibm,emac4".
                       For axon, thus, we have: "ibm,emac-axon","ibm,emac4"
 - model             : optional model string
 - interrupts	     : <interrupt mapping for EMAC IRQ and WOL IRQ>
 - interrupt-parent  : optional, if needed for interrupt mapping
 - reg               : <registers mapping>
 - local-mac-address : 6 bytes, MAC address
 - mal-device        : 1 cell, phandle of the associated McMAL node
 - mal-tx-channel    : 1 cell, index of the tx channel on McMAL associated with this EMAC
 - mal-rx-channel    : 1 cell, index of the rx channel on McMAL associated with this EMAC
 - cell-index        : 1 cell, hardware index of the EMAC cell on a given ASIC (typically
                       0x00000000 and 0x00000001 for EMAC-0 and EMAC-1 on each Axon chip)
 - max-frame-size    : 1 cell, maximum frame size supported in bytes
 - rx-fifo-size      : 1 cell, Rx fifo size in bytes for 10 and 100 Mb/sec operations.
                       For axon, 2048
 - rx-fifo-size-gige : 1 cell, optional, Rx fifo size in bytes for 1000 Mb/sec operations
                       (if absent the value is the same as rx-fifo-size).
                       For axon, either absent or 2048.
 - tx-fifo-size      : 1 cell, Tx fifo size in bytes for 10 and 100 Mb/sec operations. For axon
 - tx-fifo-size-gige : 1 cell, optional, Tx fifo size in bytes for 1000 Mb/sec operations
                       (if absent the value is the same as tx-fifo-size)
                       For axon, either absent or 2048.
 - fifo-entry-size   : 1 cell, size of a fifo entry (used to calculate thresholds)
                       For axon, 0x00000010
 - mal-burst-size    : 1 cell, MAL burst size (used to calculate thresholds) in bytes
                       For axon, 0x00000100 (I think ...)
 - phy-mode          : 1 cell, Mode of operations of the PHY interface:
                         #define PHY_MODE_NA    0

                       For axon, it is PHY_MODE_RGMII
 - phy-address       : 1 cell, optional, MDIO address of the PHY. If absent, a search
                       is performed
                       For axon: please fill with approriate value, I don't have it at
                       hand, it depends on the board and the EMAC of course.
 - phy-map           : 1 cell, optional, bitmap of addresses to probe the PHY for, used
                       if phy-address is absent. bit 0x00000001 is MDIO address 0. For axon
                       it can be absent, thouugh my current driver doesn't handle phy-address
                       yet so for now, keep 0x00ffffff in it.
 - mdio-device       : 1 cell, optional. If shared MDIO registers (440EP), phandle of the EMAC
                       to use to drive the MDIO lines for the PHY used by this EMAC.

                       For axon: phandle of plb5/plb4/opb/rgmii
 - rgmii-channel     : 1 cell, optional. If connected to a RGMII, which channel
                       Fox axon: present, whatever value is appropriate for each EMAC, that is
                       the content of the current (bogus) "phy-port" property
 - tah-device        : 1 cell, optional. If connected to a TAH engine for offload, phandle of
                       the TAH device node
 - tah-channel       : 1 cell, optional. If appropriate, channel used on the TAH engine

                        the "delayed" interrupts for txeob and rxeob. Thus we end up with
                        mapping those 5 MPIC interrupts, all level positive sensitive:

I noticed that some of the Freescale device trees used a property
called 'device-id' for what appears to be the same thing as this on
their UCC.  Maybe we should use that name for EMAC and the other 4xx
devices as well?

Just use a string here...  phy-mode = "rgmii" etc.

"dma-controller" instead?

Similar.

Hrm... I don't like that much... device-id is a standard property for
PCI devices and has a totally different meaning.

rgmii and zmii are "weird"... they aren't DMA controllers. They are EMAC

Re: EMAC device-tree binding #3 (& driver)

From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Ok, here's the "final" binding for now and a driver at:

http://gate.crashing.org/~benh/powerpc-emac-new-20070205.diff

The driver isn't much different than the previous ones I posted for
Axon, mostly changes to adapt to binding updates & axon related bug
fixes.

Hopefully, David will have enough of the 440 port up soon to start
testing it on 4xx hardware as well at which point I'll think about
submitting it for upstream.
