Hello,

I am building a prototype for a new product based on a Lanner, Inc. embedded 
PC.  It is an Intel Celeron-based system with two host I210 GbE chips connected 
to 2 MV88E6172 chips (one NIC to one switch).  Everything appears to show up 
hardware-wise.  My question is, what is the next step?  How does DSA know which 
NICs are intended to be masters?  Is this supposed to be auto-detected or is 
this knowledge supposed to be communicated explicitly.  Reading through the DSA 
driver code I see that there is a check of the OF property list for the device 
for a "label"/"cpu" property/value pair that needs to be present.  Who sets 
this and when?

I'm sorry for this basic question, but Google has not enlightened me.

        Thanks!

        Dave
