Hi all, This is not exactly new, and was sent before, although back then, I did not have an user of the pre-declared MDIO board information, but now we do. Note that I have additional changes queued up to have b53 register platform data for MIPS bcm47xx and bcm63xx.
Yes I know that we should have the Orion platforms eventually be converted to Device Tree, but until that happens, I don't want any remaining users of the old "dsa" platform device (hence the previous DTS submissions for ARM/mvebu) and, there will be platforms out there that most likely won't never see DT coming their way (BCM47xx is almost 100% sure, BCM63xx maybe not in a distant future). We would probably want the whole series to be merged via David Miller's tree to simplify things. Thanks! Changes from last submission (few months back): - rebased against latest net-next - do not introduce dsa2_platform_data which was overkill and was meant to allow us to do exaclty the same things with platform data and Device Tree we use the existing dsa_platform_data instead - properly register MDIO devices when the MDIO bus is registered and associate platform_data with them - add a change to the Orion platform code to demonstrate how this can be used Thank you Florian Fainelli (8): net: dsa: Pass device pointer to dsa_register_switch net: dsa: Make most functions take a dsa_port argument net: dsa: Suffix function manipulating device_node with _dn net: dsa: Move ports assignment closer to error checking net: dsa: Export dev_to_net_device() net: dsa: Add support for platform data net: phy: Allow pre-declaration of MDIO devices ARM: orion: Register DSA switch as a MDIO device arch/arm/plat-orion/common.c | 19 ++++- drivers/net/dsa/b53/b53_common.c | 2 +- drivers/net/dsa/mv88e6xxx/chip.c | 8 +- drivers/net/dsa/qca8k.c | 2 +- drivers/net/phy/Makefile | 3 +- drivers/net/phy/mdio-boardinfo.c | 86 ++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/net/phy/mdio-boardinfo.h | 19 +++++ drivers/net/phy/mdio_bus.c | 5 ++ drivers/net/phy/mdio_device.c | 11 +++ include/linux/mdio.h | 3 + include/linux/mod_devicetable.h | 1 + include/linux/phy.h | 19 +++++ include/net/dsa.h | 4 +- net/dsa/dsa.c | 18 +++-- net/dsa/dsa2.c | 169 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------ net/dsa/dsa_priv.h | 4 +- 16 files changed, 301 insertions(+), 72 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/mdio-boardinfo.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/mdio-boardinfo.h -- 2.9.3
