[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] sh, net: Updated SMSC LAN911x driver and support for MPR2 board
Hello,
the attached patch replaces the patch I sent before. I came to the the conclusion that making SMSC's driver comply to the U-Boot coding style would be the right thing because SMSC will most likely not update their driver very often. I hope the driver is now compliant enough. It was really a lot of work.
The patch adds a driver for the SMSC LAN911x and LAN921x family of Ethernet controllers. The patch also enables the use of this driver on the SH7720 based MPR2 board.
The patch is against U-Boot git from this morning, i.e. v1.3.2.
Regards, Mark Jonas
CHANGELOG: ---------- sh: Added support for SMSC LAN9115 networking on MPR2 board.

I'll have a look at it tonight. Your hard work is appreciated and is worth it. In the case of these chips, there's no reason for using SMSC's drivers verbatim because the chips are well documented and commonly used. Thanks for doing this!

Did the driver find your appreciation? At least it did not make its way into your custodian tree yet.
TIA, Mark

Sorry, tonight has been time-shifted. I'll have a look today.
