Annotated Snippet
The Broadcom BCM87XX devices are a family of 10G Ethernet PHYs. They
have these bindings in addition to the standard PHY bindings.
Compatible: Should contain "broadcom,bcm8706" or "broadcom,bcm8727" and
"ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c45"
Optional Properties:
- broadcom,c45-reg-init : one of more sets of 4 cells. The first cell
is the MDIO Manageable Device (MMD) address, the second a register
address within the MMD, the third cell contains a mask to be ANDed
with the existing register value, and the fourth cell is ORed with
he result to yield the new register value. If the third cell has a
value of zero, no read of the existing value is performed.
Example:
ethernet-phy@5 {
reg = <5>;
compatible = "broadcom,bcm8706", "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c45";
interrupt-parent = <&gpio>;
interrupts = <12 8>; /* Pin 12, active low */
/*
* Set PMD Digital Control Register for
* GPIO[1] Tx/Rx
* GPIO[0] R64 Sync Acquired
*/
broadcom,c45-reg-init = <1 0xc808 0xff8f 0x70>;
};
Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
