[PATCH 0/3] mdio: Parse DT nodes for auto-probed PHYs

[PATCH 0/3] mdio: Parse DT nodes for auto-probed PHYs

[Daniel Mack]

Hi Florian,

here's another aproach of solving the issue with auto-probed buses and
DT device nodes. In short, this patch set introduces a new hook which
sets the of_node pointer of a phy device to a subnode of the bus, if
there is any which matches the phy's address. This function is called
from mdiobus_scan(), and is a no-op for !CONFIG_OF.

Unlike with with the 1st version, dev->of_node is now available in the
PHY driver's probe() callback already.

Let me know what you think, I'm open to other ideas :)

[PATCH 1/3] net: of_mdio: factor out code to parse a phy's 'reg' property

[Daniel Mack]

Factor out some logic into of_mdio_parse_addr() so it can be reused
later.

    Why not just use of_property_read_u32() instead of the above? At least 
that's a material for a follow-up patch...

Agreed, I would prefer if of_property_read_u32() is used here instead
of this by hand expansion.

Yes, I agree as well, but I guess I can add this as a follow-up patch,
so we have it separate from the code move?

Please repost the patch series with the requested changes made, no need
to start with excessive code from the beginning only to remove it.

Ok, no problem. I'll wait for Florian's test results and repost.

[PATCH 2/3] net: of_mdio: add of_mdiobus_link_phydev()

[Daniel Mack]

Add a function to Walk the list of subnodes of a mdio bus and look for
a node that matches the phy's address with its 'reg' property. If found,
set the of_node pointer for the phy. This allows auto-probed pyh
devices to be augmented by information passed in via DT.

This should be:

            if (dev->of_node || !mdio->dev_of_node)
                    return;

a system with for instance non-DT probed MDIO busses such as the
special fixed MDIO bus will not have such an of_node pointer and we
will have a null pointer during the first iteration of the for_each_*
loop.

arguably of_get_next_available_child() could be updated to handle a
NULL parent device_node, but I think it clearer to add this check
here.

Good catch! I'll change that, add your Reviewed-by and resend!

[PATCH 3/3] net: of_mdio: don't store the length of a property if we don't need to

[Daniel Mack]

of_get_property() can be called with NULL as 2nd argument if the caller
is not interested in the length of a property. Use that here so we can
get rid of a variable.

I like it so far, I will give this a try on some of my quirky hardware.

Did you have a chance yet to test these patches? I can submit a v2 which
does the requested of_property_read_u32() change.

I just tested those patches, and they look good. Please resubmit a v2
with the of_property_read_u32() changes and feel free to add my:

I just found a corner case we need to address. I will follow-up with
an email explaining what is happening.
