Add dual Ethernet:

PHYs used are SMSC (LAN8742A)

With Ethernet1, we can performed WoL from PHY instead of GMAC point
of view.
(in this case IRQ for WoL is managed as wakeup pin and configured
in OS secure).

How does the Linux PHY driver process such a PHY IRQ ?

Or is Linux unaware of the PHY IRQ ? Doesn't that cause issues ?

In this case, we want to have an example to wakeup the system from Standby low power mode (VDDCPU and VDD_CORE off) thanks to a magic packet detected by the PHY. The PHY then assert his interrupt output signal.
On MP13 DK platform, this PHY signal is connected to a specific GPIO
aka "Wakeup pins" (only 6 wakeup pins an MP13). Those specific GPIOs are handled by the PWR peripheral which is controlled by the secure OS.

What does configure the PHY for this wakeup mode ?

Linux device tree.


On WoL packet, the Secure OS catches the PHY interrupt and uses asynchronous notification mechanism to warn Linux (on our platform we use a PPI). On Linux side, Optee core driver creates an irq domain/irqchip triggered on the asynchronous notification. Each device which use a wakeup pin need then to request an IRQ on this "Optee irq domain".

This OPTEE irq domain will be pushed soon.

I suspect it might make sense to add this WoL part separately from the actual ethernet DT nodes, so ethernet could land and the WoL functionality can be added when it is ready ?

If at the end we want to have this Wol from PHY then I agree we need to wait. We could push a WoL from MAC for this node before optee driver patches merge but not sure it makes sens.
