Subject: dt-bindings: net: airoha: Add GDM port ethernet child node
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a4597204b681396c0e5414854ba846ebfe6248e3;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

dt-bindings: net: airoha: Add GDM port ethernet child node

EN7581 and AN7583 SoCs support connecting multiple external SerDes to GDM3
or GDM4 ports via a hw arbiter that manages the traffic in a TDM manner.
As a result multiple net_devices can connect to the same GDM{3,4} port
and there is a theoretical "1:n" relation between GDM ports and
net_devices.
Introduce the ethernet node child of a specific GDM port in order to model
a given net_device that is connected via the external arbiter to the
GDM{3,4} port. This new ethernet node is defined by the "airoha,eth-port"
compatible string. Please note GDM1 and GDM2 does not support the
connection with the external arbiter and they are represented by an
ethernet node defined by the "airoha,eth-mac" compatible string.
