Thanks for pointing this out. Yes, I forgot to document the clocks,
interrupts and resets.
There needs to be 2 clocks (stmmaceth and pclk). There also needs to be
2 resets: each GMAC has a reset plus a seperate reset for the GMAC AXI
interface. There is 1 interrupt (macirq) but it is optional. The BeagleV
Ahead uses it but the LicheePi 4A does not use the interrupt.
However, I'm uncertain about how to restrict the snps,dwmac properties.
I see that starfive,jh7110-dwmac.yaml has the following logic. Should I
be adding something like this to restrict the snps,dwmac properties?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
allOf:
- $ref: snps,dwmac.yaml#
- if:

contains:
const: starfive,jh7100-dwmac
then:

minItems: 2
maxItems: 2
interrupt-names:
minItems: 2
maxItems: 2
resets:
maxItems: 1
reset-names:
const: ahb
