VII - Specifying interrupt information for devices
1) interrupts property
In general, the format of an address for a device is defined by the
parent bus type, based on the #address-cells and #size-cells
-property. In the absence of such a property, the parent's parent
-values are used, etc... The kernel requires the root node to have
-those properties defining addresses format for devices directly mapped
-on the processor bus.
+properties. Note that the parent's parent definitions of #address-cells
+and #size-cells are not inhereted so every node with children must specify
+them. The kernel requires the root node to have those properties defining
+addresses format for devices directly mapped on the processor bus.
Those 2 properties define 'cells' for representing an address and a
size. A "cell" is a 32-bit number. For example, if both contain 2
services interrupts for this device.
- phy-handle : The phandle for the PHY connected to this ethernet
controller.
+ - fixed-link : <a b c d e> where a is emulated phy id - choose any,
+ but unique to the all specified fixed-links, b is duplex - 0 half,
+ 1 full, c is link speed - d#10/d#100/d#1000, d is pause - 0 no
+ pause, 1 pause, e is asym_pause - 0 no asym_pause, 1 asym_pause.
