Re: [PATCH 1/2] Added dts defintion for Lenovo ix4-300d nas

[Benoit Masson]

Well after several test with the original BSP driver I found that this is not fully WOL related. It could be that the LED pin is linked to poweron for WOL, yet here the issue is on shutdown pulling up MPP24 should poweroff the deice but only reboots it except is both PHY have some reg written to...

By the way the current nv_neta does not seems to support WOL for 88e1318 and still having them both up is enough to have poweroff to work, which is why I'm putting the WOL as a side track.

Both phy are :
marvell,88e1318

example of a minimal reg write that lead MPP24 to shutdown instead of rebooting on original BSP driver
XXXXX BasicInit
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX phyAdr 0: regOffs: 16 data: 3 caller: mvEthE1310PhyBasicInit+0x2c/0x58
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX phyAdr 0: regOffs: 10 data: 830 caller: mvEthE1310PhyBasicInit+0x3c/0x58
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX phyAdr 0: regOffs: 16 data: 0 caller: mvEthE1310PhyBasicInit+0x4c/0x58
XXXXX BasicInit
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX phyAdr 1: regOffs: 16 data: 3 caller: mvEthE1310PhyBasicInit+0x2c/0x58
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX phyAdr 1: regOffs: 10 data: 830 caller: mvEthE1310PhyBasicInit+0x3c/0x58
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX phyAdr 1: regOffs: 16 data: 0 caller: mvEthE1310PhyBasicInit+0x4c/0x58

I've tried something like:
compatible = "marvell,88e1318";
                                        device_type = "ethernet-phy";
                                        marvell,reg-init =
                                          /* Init led/activity workaround for MP24 shutdown. */
                                          <3 0x10 0 0x830>;

In the dts but without luck

Benoit
