Subject[PATCH v2 1/2] phy dp83867: Fix compilation with CONFIG_OF_MDIO=m
Message-ID<rzvUd-2fp-3@gated-at.bofh.it>
When CONFIG_OF_MDIO is configured as module, the #define for it really
is CONFIG_OF_MDIO_MODULE, not CONFIG_OF_MDIO. So if we are compiling it
as module, the dp83867 doesn't see that OF_MDIO was selected and doesn't
read the dt rgmii parameters.

The fix is simple: Use IS_ENABLED(). It checks for both - module as well
as compiled in code.

Subject[PATCH v2 2/2] phy dp83867: Make rgmii parameters optional
Message-ID<rzvUe-2fp-19@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1401699
If you compile without OF_MDIO support in an RGMII configuration, we fail
to configure the dp83867 phy today by writing garbage into its configuration
registers.

On the other hand if you do compile with OF_MDIO and the phy gets loaded via
device tree, you have to have the properties set in the device tree, otherwise
we fail to load the driver and don't even attach the generic phy driver to
the interface anymore.

To make things slightly more consistent, make the rgmii configuration properties
optional and allow a user to omit them in their device tree.

This could be a boolean type.

phydev_warn() maybe?

Other than that, this looks okay to me.

The binding document actually says they are required. It would be good
to make the binding documentation and the code consistent.

Optional means you may or may not have the entries

I would prefer to wrap the DT reading with the interface type check.

if (phydev->interface == PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII_TXID ||
phydev->interface == PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RGMII_ID  )

 	ret = of_property_read_u32(of_node, "ti,tx-internal-delay",
 				   &dp83867->tx_id_delay);
	if (ret)

goto invalid_dt;

Otherwise this continues to mandate that you need to declare all the DT entries
when in fact you may only have to declare 1.

And if the other interfaces are declared then DT entries are ignored.  And configuring
internal delay is not required per section 8.9 footnote 3 of the data sheet.

This patch should not have been applied.

I did not believe the implementation was proper for that driver.

It seems my objection to the code was not seen.  Nor was Andrew's point about the DT bindings document

The discussions around the recent phy patches have been a labrynth that I've
found hard to follow, sorry.

I'll revert these two, sigh....

The first patch is an obvious and correct fix. Discussions were only about the second one (which I'm happy to drop given the rat hole this turned out to be).
