From dc48f04fd6562de6019e9fc7ed9ed539d632babb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Chiu Date: Tue, 5 Apr 2022 17:19:28 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] dt-bindings: net: add pcs-handle attribute Document the new pcs-handle attribute to support connecting to an external PHY. For Xilinx's AXI Ethernet, this is used when the core operates in SGMII or 1000Base-X modes and links through the internal PCS/PMA PHY.
