Microsemi Ocelot SerDes muxing driver ------------------------------------- On Microsemi Ocelot, there is a handful of registers in HSIO address space for setting up the SerDes to switch port muxing. A SerDes X can be "muxed" to work with switch port Y or Z for example. One specific SerDes can also be used as a PCIe interface. Hence, a SerDes represents an interface, be it an Ethernet or a PCIe one. There are two kinds of SerDes: SERDES1G supports 10/100Mbps in half/full-duplex and 1000Mbps in full-duplex mode while SERDES6G supports 10/100Mbps in half/full-duplex and 1000/2500Mbps in full-duplex mode. Also, SERDES6G number (aka "macro") 0 is the only interface supporting QSGMII. This is a child of the HSIO syscon ("mscc,ocelot-hsio", see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mips/mscc.txt) on the Microsemi Ocelot. Required properties: - compatible: should be "mscc,vsc7514-serdes" - #phy-cells : from the generic phy bindings, must be 2. The first number defines the input port to use for a given SerDes macro. The second defines the macro to use. They are defined in dt-bindings/phy/phy-ocelot-serdes.h Example: serdes: serdes { compatible = "mscc,vsc7514-serdes"; #phy-cells = <2>; }; ethernet { port1 { phy-handle = <&phy_foo>; /* Link SERDES1G_5 to port1 */ phys = <&serdes 1 SERDES1G_5>; }; };
