Some boards [1] leave the PHYs at an invalid state
during system power-up or reset thus causing unreliability
issues with the PHY which manifests as PHY not being detected
or link not functional. To fix this, these PHYs need to be RESET
via a GPIO connected to the PHY's RESET pin.

Some boards have a single GPIO controlling the PHY RESET pin of all
PHYs on the bus whereas some others have separate GPIOs controlling
individual PHY RESETs.

In both cases, the RESET de-assertion cannot be done in the PHY driver
as the PHY will not probe till its reset is de-asserted.
So do the RESET de-assertion in the MDIO bus driver.

[1] - am572x-idk, am571x-idk, a437x-idk

v2:
- add device tree binding document (mdio.txt)
- specify default reset delay in of_mdio.c instead of mdio_bus.c

Hi Roger

Thanks for doing a generic solutions and the MDIO DT documentation.

A few comments on the binding and the code, sorry for this late review.

us is micro seconds, uS is micro siemens.

Could we use dev_err(&bus->dev) here to better identify which MDIO bus
is returning the problem?

Should we somehow "unwind" the reset lines we were able to successfully
take out of reset and therefore put back into reset state? How about
mdiobus_unregister()? Should we have similar code there, if not for
correctness to be more power efficient?

Does that work even if the polarity of the reset line is active low?

Thanks!

Hi Lars-Peter

We discussed this when the first proposal was made. There are two
cases, to consider.

1) Here, one GPIO line resets all PHYs on the same MDIO bus. In this
example, two PHYs.

2) There is one GPIO line per PHY. That is a separate case, and as you
say, the reset line should probably be considered a PHY property, not
an MDIO property. However, it can be messy, since in order to probe
the MDIO bus, you probably need to take the PHY out of reset.

Anyway, this patch addresses the first case, so should be accepted. If
anybody wants to address the second case, they are free to do so.

Good point. I agree now that if PHYs have individual RESET lines, they
should be part of the PHY node.
