2019-05-05dt-bindings: doc: reflect new NVMEM of_get_mac_address behaviourPetr Štetiar
As of_get_mac_address now supports NVMEM under the hood, we need to update the bindings documentation with the new nvmem-cell* properties, which would mean copy&pasting a lot of redundant information to every binding documentation currently referencing some of the MAC address properties. So I've just removed all the references to the optional MAC address properties and replaced them with the small note referencing net/ethernet.txt file.

2016-12-20net: hix5hd2_gmac: fix compatible strings nameDongpo Li
The SoC hix5hd2 compatible string has the suffix "-gmac" and we should not change its compatible string. So we should name all the compatible string with the suffix "-gmac". Creating a new name suffix "-gemac" is unnecessary. We also add another SoC compatible string in dt binding documentation and describe which generic version the SoC belongs to.

2016-12-06net: hix5hd2_gmac: add reset control and clock signalsDongpo Li
Add three reset control signals, "mac_core_rst", "mac_ifc_rst" and "phy_rst". The following diagram explained how the reset signals work. SoC |----------------------------------------------------- | ------ | | | cpu | | | ------ | | | | | ------------ AMBA bus | | GMAC | | | ---------------------- | | ------------- mac_core_rst | -------------- | | | |clock and |-------------->| mac core | | | | |reset | | -------------- | | | |generator |---- | | | | | ------------- | | ---------------- | | | | ---------->| mac interface | | | | | mac_ifc_rst | ---------------- | | | | | | | | | | | ------------------ | | | |phy_rst | | RGMII interface | | | | | | ------------------ | | | | ---------------------- | |----------|------------------------------------------| | | | ---------- |--------------------- |PHY chip | ---------- The "mac_core_rst" represents "mac core reset signal", it resets the mac core including packet processing unit, descriptor processing unit, tx engine, rx engine, control unit. The "mac_ifc_rst" represents "mac interface reset signal", it resets the mac interface. The mac interface unit connects mac core and data interface like MII/RMII/RGMII. After we set a new value of interface mode, we must reset mac interface to reload the new mode value. The "mac_core_rst" and "mac_ifc_rst" are both optional to be backward compatible with the hix5hd2 SoC. The "phy_rst" represents "phy reset signal", it does a hardware reset on the PHY chip. This reset signal is optional if the PHY can work well without the hardware reset. Add one more clock signal, the existing is MAC core clock, and the new one is MAC interface clock. The MAC interface clock is optional to be backward compatible with the hix5hd2 SoC. Signed-off-by: Dongpo Li <lidongpo@hisilicon.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-12-06net: hix5hd2_gmac: add generic compatible stringDongpo Li
The "hix5hd2" is SoC name, add the generic ethernet driver name. The "hisi-gemac-v1" is the basic version and "hisi-gemac-v2" adds the SG/TXCSUM/TSO/UFO features. Signed-off-by: Dongpo Li <lidongpo@hisilicon.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
