1 | | -The following properties are common to the Ethernet controllers: |
---|
2 | | - |
---|
3 | | -NOTE: All 'phy*' properties documented below are Ethernet specific. For the |
---|
4 | | -generic PHY 'phys' property, see |
---|
5 | | -Documentation/devicetree/bindings/phy/phy-bindings.txt. |
---|
6 | | - |
---|
7 | | -- local-mac-address: array of 6 bytes, specifies the MAC address that was |
---|
8 | | - assigned to the network device; |
---|
9 | | -- mac-address: array of 6 bytes, specifies the MAC address that was last used by |
---|
10 | | - the boot program; should be used in cases where the MAC address assigned to |
---|
11 | | - the device by the boot program is different from the "local-mac-address" |
---|
12 | | - property; |
---|
13 | | -- nvmem-cells: phandle, reference to an nvmem node for the MAC address; |
---|
14 | | -- nvmem-cell-names: string, should be "mac-address" if nvmem is to be used; |
---|
15 | | -- max-speed: number, specifies maximum speed in Mbit/s supported by the device; |
---|
16 | | -- max-frame-size: number, maximum transfer unit (IEEE defined MTU), rather than |
---|
17 | | - the maximum frame size (there's contradiction in the Devicetree |
---|
18 | | - Specification). |
---|
19 | | -- phy-mode: string, operation mode of the PHY interface. This is now a de-facto |
---|
20 | | - standard property; supported values are: |
---|
21 | | - * "internal" |
---|
22 | | - * "mii" |
---|
23 | | - * "gmii" |
---|
24 | | - * "sgmii" |
---|
25 | | - * "qsgmii" |
---|
26 | | - * "tbi" |
---|
27 | | - * "rev-mii" |
---|
28 | | - * "rmii" |
---|
29 | | - * "rgmii" (RX and TX delays are added by the MAC when required) |
---|
30 | | - * "rgmii-id" (RGMII with internal RX and TX delays provided by the PHY, the |
---|
31 | | - MAC should not add the RX or TX delays in this case) |
---|
32 | | - * "rgmii-rxid" (RGMII with internal RX delay provided by the PHY, the MAC |
---|
33 | | - should not add an RX delay in this case) |
---|
34 | | - * "rgmii-txid" (RGMII with internal TX delay provided by the PHY, the MAC |
---|
35 | | - should not add an TX delay in this case) |
---|
36 | | - * "rtbi" |
---|
37 | | - * "smii" |
---|
38 | | - * "xgmii" |
---|
39 | | - * "trgmii" |
---|
40 | | - * "2000base-x", |
---|
41 | | - * "2500base-x", |
---|
42 | | - * "rxaui" |
---|
43 | | - * "xaui" |
---|
44 | | - * "10gbase-kr" (10GBASE-KR, XFI, SFI) |
---|
45 | | -- phy-connection-type: the same as "phy-mode" property but described in the |
---|
46 | | - Devicetree Specification; |
---|
47 | | -- phy-handle: phandle, specifies a reference to a node representing a PHY |
---|
48 | | - device; this property is described in the Devicetree Specification and so |
---|
49 | | - preferred; |
---|
50 | | -- phy: the same as "phy-handle" property, not recommended for new bindings. |
---|
51 | | -- phy-device: the same as "phy-handle" property, not recommended for new |
---|
52 | | - bindings. |
---|
53 | | -- rx-fifo-depth: the size of the controller's receive fifo in bytes. This |
---|
54 | | - is used for components that can have configurable receive fifo sizes, |
---|
55 | | - and is useful for determining certain configuration settings such as |
---|
56 | | - flow control thresholds. |
---|
57 | | -- tx-fifo-depth: the size of the controller's transmit fifo in bytes. This |
---|
58 | | - is used for components that can have configurable fifo sizes. |
---|
59 | | -- managed: string, specifies the PHY management type. Supported values are: |
---|
60 | | - "auto", "in-band-status". "auto" is the default, it usess MDIO for |
---|
61 | | - management if fixed-link is not specified. |
---|
62 | | - |
---|
63 | | -Child nodes of the Ethernet controller are typically the individual PHY devices |
---|
64 | | -connected via the MDIO bus (sometimes the MDIO bus controller is separate). |
---|
65 | | -They are described in the phy.txt file in this same directory. |
---|
66 | | -For non-MDIO PHY management see fixed-link.txt. |
