Marvell Distributed Switch Architecture Device Tree Bindings
------------------------------------------------------------
Required properties:
- compatible : Should be "marvell,dsa"
- #address-cells : Must be 2, first cell is the address on the MDIO bus
and second cell is the address in the switch tree.
Second cell is used only when cascading/chaining.
- #size-cells : Must be 0
- dsa,ethernet : Should be a phandle to a valid Ethernet device node
- dsa,mii-bus : Should be a phandle to a valid MDIO bus device node
Optional properties:
- interrupts : property with a value describing the switch
interrupt number (not supported by the driver)
A DSA node can contain multiple switch chips which are therefore child nodes of
the parent DSA node. The maximum number of allowed child nodes is 4
(DSA_MAX_SWITCHES).
Each of these switch child nodes should have the following required properties:
- reg : Describes the switch address on the MII bus
- #address-cells : Must be 1
- #size-cells : Must be 0
A switch child node has the following optional property:
- eeprom-length : Set to the length of an EEPROM connected to the
switch. Must be set if the switch can not detect
the presence and/or size of a connected EEPROM,
otherwise optional.
A switch may have multiple "port" children nodes
Each port children node must have the following mandatory properties:
- reg : Describes the port address in the switch
- label : Describes the label associated with this port, special
labels are "cpu" to indicate a CPU port and "dsa" to
indicate an uplink/downlink port.
Note that a port labelled "dsa" will imply checking for the uplink phandle
described below.
Optionnal property:
- link : Should be a phandle to another switch's DSA port.
This property is only used when switches are being
chained/cascaded together.
- phy-handle : Phandle to a PHY on an external MDIO bus, not the
switch internal one. See
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet.txt
for details.
- phy-mode : String representing the connection to the designated
PHY node specified by the 'phy-handle' property. See
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet.txt
for details.
Optional subnodes:
- fixed-link : Fixed-link subnode describing a link to a non-MDIO
managed entity. See
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/fixed-link.txt
for details.
Example:
dsa@0 {
compatible = "marvell,dsa";
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <0>;
interrupts = <10>;
dsa,ethernet = <&ethernet0>;
dsa,mii-bus = <&mii_bus0>;
switch@0 {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
reg = <16 0>; /* MDIO address 16, switch 0 in tree */
port@0 {
reg = <0>;
label = "lan1";
phy-handle = <&phy0>;
};
port@1 {
reg = <1>;
label = "lan2";
};
port@5 {
reg = <5>;
label = "cpu";
};
switch0uplink: port@6 {
reg = <6>;
label = "dsa";
link = <&switch1uplink>;
};
};
switch@1 {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
reg = <17 1>; /* MDIO address 17, switch 1 in tree */
switch1uplink: port@0 {
reg = <0>;
label = "dsa";
link = <&switch0uplink>;
};
};
};
