[U-Boot] [PATCH] fdt: fix setting MAC addresses for multiple interfaces

For multiple ethernet interfaces the FDT offset of '/aliases' will change as we are adding MAC addresses to the FDT. Therefore only the first interface ('ethernet0') will get properly updated in the FDT, with the rest getting FDT errors when we try to set their MAC address.
Switch to using fdt_get_alias() which is the proper way to get the FDT path.

Could you please elaborate more under what situation the offset of '/aliases' will change?

I believe the offset of '/aliases' will change because we're editing the device tree in place (adding the MAC address to it where it wasn't before), and 'aliases' is at the very end of the device tree. I've seen this happen on my board (Freescale LS1043A-RDB). I added some debugging printf's to my code, and saw that all ethernet interfaces after ethernet0 get a 'FDT_ERR_BADOFFSET' from the fdt_getprop() call , and Linux comes up with only 1 interface. After this fix all the interfaces come up properly in Linux with the right MAC addresses.
Can you please rebase your patch on top of the following two:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/539373/ http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/539374/
The second patch seems like a rewrite of the scan through interfaces loop, so it's not a simple rebase. I will attempt to do this, and send another patch soon.
Thanks,
Lev

I fixed these in place when applying.

This is not checkpatch.pl clean either. Fixed when applied.

I had already applied your previous patch with a few minor adjustments. Please look at what's in my tree and send a patch on top of that if you care to make further improvements.
Also, you might want to consider using tools/patman/patman when working on patches and sending to the list.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for fixing that up, I'll try to stick to patman in the future.
