of_net: Fix missing of_find_device_by_node ref count drop

2019-05-13T15:52:37+00:00

of_find_device_by_node takes a reference to the embedded struct device
which needs to be dropped after use.

of_net: remove nvmem-mac-address property

2019-05-10T22:14:29+00:00

In commit d01f449c008a ("of_net: add NVMEM support to
of_get_mac_address") I've added `nvmem-mac-address` property which was
wrong idea as I've allocated the property with devm_kzalloc and then
added it to DT, so then 2 entities would be refcounting the allocation.
So if the driver unbinds, the buffer is freed, but DT code would be
still referencing that memory.

I'm removing this property completely instead of fixing it, as it's not
needed to have it.

of_net: add NVMEM support to of_get_mac_address

2019-05-06T04:47:07+00:00

Many embedded devices have information such as MAC addresses stored
inside NVMEMs like EEPROMs and so on. Currently there are only two
drivers in the tree which benefit from NVMEM bindings.

Adding support for NVMEM into every other driver would mean adding a lot
of repetitive code. This patch allows us to configure MAC addresses in
various devices like ethernet and wireless adapters directly from
of_get_mac_address, which is already used by almost every driver in the
tree.

Predecessor of this patch which used directly MTD layer has originated
in OpenWrt some time ago and supports already about 497 use cases in 357
device tree files.

of_net: Fix residues after of_get_nvmem_mac_address removal

2019-04-19T18:58:30+00:00

I've discovered following discrepancy in the bindings/net/ethernet.txt
documentation, where it states following:

 - nvmem-cells: phandle, reference to an nvmem node for the MAC address;
 - nvmem-cell-names: string, should be "mac-address" if nvmem is to be..

which is actually misleading and confusing. There are only two ethernet
drivers in the tree, cadence/macb and davinci which supports this
properties.

This nvmem-cell* properties were introduced in commit 9217e566bdee
("of_net: Implement of_get_nvmem_mac_address helper"), but
commit afa64a72b862 ("of: net: kill of_get_nvmem_mac_address()")
forget to properly clean up this parts.

So this patch fixes the documentation by moving the nvmem-cell*
properties at the appropriate places.  While at it, I've removed unused
include as well.

of_net: Implement of_get_nvmem_mac_address helper

2018-03-30T14:40:18+00:00

It's common practice to store MAC addresses for network interfaces into
nvmem devices. However the code to actually do this in the kernel lacks,
so this patch adds of_get_nvmem_mac_address() for drivers to obtain the
address from an nvmem cell provider.

This is particulary useful on devices where the ethernet interface cannot
be configured by the bootloader, for example because it's in an FPGA.

of_net: factor out repetitive code from of_get_mac_address()

2015-03-29T07:56:17+00:00

of_get_mac_address() basically does the same  thing thrice, every  time with  a
different  property  name,  so it makes sense to factor out the repetitive code
into separate function. While at it, we can start using ETH_ALEN instead of the
bare number and drop unnecessary parens around the property length check.

The resulting ARM object file is 100 bytes less in size than before the patch.

net: phy: re-design phy_modes to be self-contained

2014-02-13T00:08:20+00:00

of_get_phy_mode() uses a local array to map phy_interface_t values from
include/linux/net/phy.h to a string which is read from the 'phy-mode' or
'phy-connection-type' property. In preparation for exposing the PHY
interface mode through sysfs, perform the following:

- mode phy_modes from drivers/of/of_net.c to include/linux/phy.h such
  that it is right below the phy_interface_t enum
- make it a static inline function returning the string such that we can
  use it by just including include/linux/net/phy.h
- add a PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_MAX enum value to guard the iteration in
  of_get_phy_mode()
