The current fec driver allows the PHY to be reset via a gpio, specified in the devicetree. However, some PHYs need to be reset in a more complex way.
To accommodate such PHYs, allow an optional reset controller in the fec devicetree. If no reset controller is found, the fec will fall back to the legacy reset behaviour. Example: &fec { phy-mode = "rgmii"; resets = <&phy_reset>; reset-names = "phy"; status = "okay"; }; Signed-off-by: Sven Van Asbroeck <thesve...@gmail.com> --- Will send a Documentation patch if this receives a positive review. drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c index 38f10f7dcbc3..5a5f3ed6f16d 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c @@ -61,6 +61,7 @@ #include <linux/regulator/consumer.h> #include <linux/if_vlan.h> #include <linux/pinctrl/consumer.h> +#include <linux/reset.h> #include <linux/prefetch.h> #include <soc/imx/cpuidle.h> @@ -3335,6 +3336,7 @@ static int fec_enet_get_irq_cnt(struct platform_device *pdev) static int fec_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) { + struct reset_control *phy_reset; struct fec_enet_private *fep; struct fec_platform_data *pdata; struct net_device *ndev; @@ -3490,7 +3492,9 @@ fec_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) pm_runtime_set_active(&pdev->dev); pm_runtime_enable(&pdev->dev); - ret = fec_reset_phy(pdev); + phy_reset = devm_reset_control_get_exclusive(&pdev->dev, "phy"); + ret = IS_ERR(phy_reset) ? fec_reset_phy(pdev) : + reset_control_reset(phy_reset); if (ret) goto failed_reset; -- 2.17.1
