[POWERPC] Document phy-connection-type property

2007-05-02T10:04:29+00:00

Since ucc_geth is being migrated to use the phylib, the existing
(undocumented) 'interface' property is being deprecated in favour
of 'phy-connection-type'.

phy-connection-type is now maintained one-to-one with definitions
in include/linux/phy.h, albeit in the form of a string.
If not specified, "mii" is assumed.

[POWERPC] Document the linux,network-index property.

2007-03-21T11:35:21+00:00

To allow more robust association of each network device node with an
index (such as is used by the firmware or an EEPROM to indicate MAC
addresses), a network device's node may specify the index explicitly.

[POWERPC] Update documentation for flat device tree format v17

2007-03-16T05:38:19+00:00

This patch updates booting-without-of.txt to describe version 17 of
the flattened device tree format.  Version 17 is a small, backwards
compatible change from version 16, adding an extra field giving the
size of the device tree's structure block.  At this time, the kernel
has no use for the extra information, however its presence can make
life easier for bootloaders or other software manipulating the tree.

In addition this patch adds information on the size_dt_strings field
of the device tree header, present since version 3 of the flattened
tree format, but omitted from the documentation.  It also makes
changes to consistently refer to versions 16 and 17 as versions 16 and
17 in decimal, rather than version 0x10 which was occasionally used
for version 16 previously.

Finally, we also add the new field to the definition of the device
tree header structure in prom.h

[POWERPC] Remove interrupt-controller as a property under /chosen

2007-03-08T04:43:23+00:00

 Remove interrupt-controller as a valid property under /chosen in
 the documentation.  There is a consensus that an
 interrupt-controller property does not belong under /chosen.
 /chosen is specifically for dynamic properties set at runtime.

[POWERPC] Delete boot-cpu property from all DTS files

2007-02-16T03:00:20+00:00

The 'linux,boot-cpu' property is obsolete, so remove it from all of the DTS
files and from booting-without-of.txt.  The boot CPU is actually defined in
the device tree header, and U-Boot sets that field.  The device tree compiler
also complains if the property exists.
