Niklas Söderlund says: ==================== ravb: Support describing the MDIO bus This series adds support to the binding and driver of the Renesas Ethernet AVB to described the MDIO bus. Currently the driver uses the OF node of the device itself when registering the MDIO bus. This forces any MDIO bus properties the MDIO core should react on to be set on the device OF node. This is confusing and none of the MDIO bus properties are described in the Ethernet AVB bindings. Patch 1/2 extends the bindings with an optional mdio child-node to the device that can be used to contain the MDIO bus settings. While patch 2/2 changes the driver to use this node (if present) when registering the MDIO bus. If the new optional mdio child-node is not present the driver fallback to the old behavior and uses the device OF node like before. This change is fully backward compatible with existing usage of the bindings. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240325153451.2366083-1-niklas.soderlund+renesas@ragnatech.se Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
