Add the fec node for i.MX8ULP  platform.
And enable the fec support on i.MX8ULP EVK board.

Wrong subject prefix (dt-bindings).

Wrong subject contents - do not use some generic sentences like "update
X", just write what you are doing or what you want to achieve. For example:
dt-bindings: net: fsl,fec: add i.MX8 ULP FEC

This is wrong.  fsl,imx6ul-fec has to be followed by fsl,imx6q-fec. I
think someone made similar mistakes earlier so this is a mess.

Hi Krzysztof,

And as far as I know, the imx8ulp's fec is reused from imx6ul, they both have the same features. However, the fec of imx8ulp(and imx6ul) is a little different from imx6q, therefore, the functions supported by the driver are also somewhat different.

I understand. But if imx8ulp is the same as imx6ul and imx6ul is
compatible with imx6q, then I expect imx8ulp to be compatible with
imx6ul and with imx6q.

Hmm, not sure I follow this.  Supposing we want to have the following
compatible for i.MX8ULP FEC, why do we have to have "fsl,imx6q-fec"
here?

	fec: ethernet@29950000 {
		compatible = "fsl,imx8ulp-fec", "fsl,imx6ul-fec";
		...
	};

Because a bit earlier this bindings is saying that fsl,imx6ul-fec must
be followed by fsl,imx6q-fec.

The FEC driver OF match table suggests that fsl,imx6ul-fec and fsl,imx6q-fec
are not really compatible.

static const struct of_device_id fec_dt_ids[] = {
        { .compatible = "fsl,imx25-fec", .data = &fec_devtype[IMX25_FEC], },
        { .compatible = "fsl,imx27-fec", .data = &fec_devtype[IMX27_FEC], },
        { .compatible = "fsl,imx28-fec", .data = &fec_devtype[IMX28_FEC], },
        { .compatible = "fsl,imx6q-fec", .data = &fec_devtype[IMX6Q_FEC], },
        { .compatible = "fsl,mvf600-fec", .data = &fec_devtype[MVF600_FEC], },
        { .compatible = "fsl,imx6sx-fec", .data = &fec_devtype[IMX6SX_FEC], },
        { .compatible = "fsl,imx6ul-fec", .data = &fec_devtype[IMX6UL_FEC], },
        { .compatible = "fsl,imx8mq-fec", .data = &fec_devtype[IMX8MQ_FEC], },
        { .compatible = "fsl,imx8qm-fec", .data = &fec_devtype[IMX8QM_FEC], },
        { /* sentinel */ }
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, fec_dt_ids);

Should we fix the binding doc?

I don't see here any incompatibility. Binding driver with different
driver data is not a proof of incompatible devices. Additionally, the
binding describes the hardware, not the driver.

Maybe, I don't know. The binding describes the hardware, so based on it
the devices are compatible. Changing this, except ABI impact, would be
possible with proper reason, but not based on Linux driver code.

To me, different driver data is a good sign of incompatibility.  It
mostly means that software needs to program the hardware block
differently.

Well, if Linux driver code is written in the way that hardware requires,
I guess that's just based on hardware characteristics.

To me, having a device compatible to two devices that require different
programming model is unnecessary and confusing.

Any device being 100% compatible with old one and having additional
features will have different driver data... so no, it's not a proof.
There are many of such examples and we call them compatible, because the
device could operate when bound by the fallback compatible.

If this is the case here - how do I know? I raised and the answer was
affirmative...

It's the first time anyone mentions here the programming model is
different... If it is different, the devices are likely not compatible.

However when I raised this issue last time, there were no concerns with
calling them all compatible. Therefore I wonder if the folks working on
this driver actually know what's there... I don't know, I gave
recommendations based on what is described in the binding and expect the
engineer to come with that knowledge.

Sorry, I did not explain clearly last time, I just mentioned that imx8ulp fec was
totally reused from imx6ul and was a little different from imx6q.
So what should I do next? Should I fix the binding doc ?

Just my understanding, saying i.MX6Q supports feature A,
i.MX6UL support feature A + B, Then i.MX6UL is compatible with i.MX6Q.

If upper is true from hardware level, then i.MX8ULP FEC node
should contain 8ulp, 6ul, 6q.

But the list may expand too long if more and more devices are supported
and hardware backward compatible

Peng.

Or if i.MX8ULP can bind with any previous compatible and still work
(with limited subset of features).

True. I guess three items is the limit and anything newer should restart
the sequence.

So, the binding doc doesn't need to be fixed ?

How are these SoC-specific? They sound like they belong
into board DT.

I think the default should be the other way round, assume MAC to provide reference
clock and allow override on board-level if PHY does it instead.

Ahmad

I would make it the same as all the other instances of FEC in the
IMX7, IMX6, IMX5, IMX4, Vybrid etc

RE: [EXT] Re: [PATCH 2/3] arm64: dts: imx8ulp: Add the fec support

[Wei Fang]

Hi Ahmad:

	Thanks for your reply. clock_ext_rmii and clock_ext_ts indeed belong into board DT, I will move them to imx.8ulp-evk.dts and resubmit the patch. And refer to imx8ulp reference manual, the enet_clk_ref only has external clock source, so it is related to specifical board. Therefore, can I delete the enet_clk_ref clock in imx8ulp.dtsi (as shown below) and override the clock and clock-names properties in imx8ulp-evk.dts ?

I think the default should be the other way round, assume MAC to provide reference clock and allow override on board-level if PHY does it instead.
