Fixed-link Feature

Altera_Forum · ‎08-17-2017

这种特性主要是为了解决没有使用mdio进行管理的Phy设备。

首先是设备树，内核，以及内核配置三块。

第一：

设备树：

有两种写法，据测试现在都是可行的：

之前是这种写法，

A 'fixed-link' property in the Ethernet MAC node, with 5 cells, of the form <a b c d e> with the following accepted values:

- a: emulated PHY ID, choose any but but unique to the all specified fixed-links, from 0 to 31

- b: duplex configuration: 0 for half duplex, 1 for full duplex

- c: link speed in Mbits/sec, accepted values are: 10, 100 and 1000

- d: pause configuration: 0 for no pause, 1 for pause

- e: asymmetric pause configuration: 0 for no asymmetric pause, 1 for asymmetric pause

现在是推荐这种写法：

A 'fixed-link' sub-node of the Ethernet MAC device node, with the followingproperties:

* 'speed' (integer, mandatory), to indicate the link speed. Accepted values are 10, 100 and 1000

* 'full-duplex' (boolean, optional), to indicate that full duplex is used. When absent, half duplex is assumed.

* 'pause' (boolean, optional), to indicate that pause should be enabled.

* 'asym-pause' (boolean, optional), to indicate that asym_pause should be enabled.

* 'link-gpios' ('gpio-list', optional), to indicate if a gpio can be read to determine if the link is up.

第二是暂时不能使用ltsi版本，建议使用master版本。

第三是内核配置要配置支持该特性：FIXED_PHY。
