[PATCH RFT net-next 0/10] net: stmmac: Add support for Allwinner A523 GMAC200

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

From: Chen-Yu Tsai <wens at csie.org>

Hi everyone,

This series adds support for the second Ethernet controller found on the
Allwinner A523 SoC family. This controller, dubbed GMAC200, is a DWMAC4
core with an integration layer around it. The integration layer is
similar to older Allwinner generations, but with an extra memory bus
gate and separate power domain.

The series stacks on top of three other series inflight:

  - Orangepi 4A series
    https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250628161608.3072968-1-wens@kernel.org/
  - A523 power controller support series
    https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250627152918.2606728-1-wens@kernel.org/
  - Rename emac0 to gmac0 for A523 series
    https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250628054438.2864220-1-wens@kernel.org/

Patch 1 adds a new compatible string combo to the existing Allwinner
EMAC binding.

Patch 2 adds a new driver for this core and integration combo.

Patch 3 extends the sunxi SRAM driver to allow access to the clock delay
controls for the second Ethernet controller.

Patch 4 registers the special regmap for the clock delay controls as a
syscon. This allows the new network driver to use the syscon interface,
instead of the following dance which the existing dwmac-sun8i driver
does:

    of_parse_phandle();
    of_find_device_by_node();
    dev_get_regmap();

With this change in place we can also drop the above from the
dwmac-sun8i driver.

Patch 5 adds a device node and pinmux settings for the GMAC200.

Patches 6 and 8 add missing Ethernet PHY reset settings for the
already enabled controller.

Patches 7, 9, and 10 enable the GMAC200 on three boards. I only
have the Orangepi 4A, so I am asking for people to help test the
two other boards. The RX/TX clock delay settings were taken from
their respective BSPs, though those numbers don't always work, as
is was the case for the Orangepi 4A.


Please have a look and help test.

Patches 1 and 2 should go through net-next, and I will take all the
other patches through the sunxi tree.


Thanks
ChenYu
