Kernel-4.18.0-80.el8_mscc-phy-vsc8531

  • Microsemi - vsc8531 Giga bit ethernet phy

Required properties:

  • compatible : Should contain phy id as “ethernet-phy-idAAAA.BBBB”
        The PHY device uses the binding described in
        Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/phy.txt
    

Optional properties:

  • vsc8531,vddmac : The vddmac in mV. Allowed values is listed
            in the first row of Table 1 (below).
            This property is only used in combination
            with the 'edge-slowdown' property.
            Default value is 3300.
    
  • vsc8531,edge-slowdown : % the edge should be slowed down relative to
            the fastest possible edge time.
            Edge rate sets the drive strength of the MAC
            interface output signals.  Changing the
            drive strength will affect the edge rate of
            the output signal.  The goal of this setting
            is to help reduce electrical emission (EMI)
            by being able to reprogram drive strength
            and in effect slow down the edge rate if
            desired.
            To adjust the edge-slowdown, the 'vddmac'
            must be specified. Table 1 lists the
            supported edge-slowdown values for a given
            'vddmac'.
            Default value is 0%.
            Ref: Table:1 - Edge rate change (below).
    
  • vsc8531,led-0-mode : LED mode. Specify how the LED[0] should behave.
            Allowed values are define in
            "include/dt-bindings/net/mscc-phy-vsc8531.h".
            Default value is VSC8531_LINK_1000_ACTIVITY (1).
    
  • vsc8531,led-1-mode : LED mode. Specify how the LED[1] should behave.
            Allowed values are define in
            "include/dt-bindings/net/mscc-phy-vsc8531.h".
            Default value is VSC8531_LINK_100_ACTIVITY (2).
