+This document describes the device tree bindings associated with the
+keystone network coprocessor(NetCP) driver support.
+
+The network coprocessor (NetCP) is a hardware accelerator that processes
+Ethernet packets. NetCP has a gigabit Ethernet (GbE) subsytem with a ethernet
+switch sub-module to send and receive packets. NetCP also includes a packet
+accelerator (PA) module to perform packet classification operations such as
+header matching, and packet modification operations such as checksum
+generation. NetCP can also optionally include a Security Accelerator (SA)
+capable of performing IPSec operations on ingress/egress packets.
+
+Keystone II SoC's also have a 10 Gigabit Ethernet Subsystem (XGbE) which
+includes a 3-port Ethernet switch sub-module capable of 10Gb/s and 1Gb/s rates
+per Ethernet port.
+
+Keystone NetCP driver has a plug-in module architecture where each of the NetCP
+sub-modules exist as a loadable kernel module which plug in to the netcp core.
+These sub-modules are represented as "netcp-devices" in the dts bindings. It is
+mandatory to have the ethernet switch sub-module for the ethernet interface to
+be operational. Any other sub-module like the PA is optional.

+
+NetCP subsystem properties:
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "ti,netcp-1.0"
+- clocks: phandle to the reference clocks for the subsystem.
+- dma-id: Navigator packet dma instance id.
+
+Optional properties:
+- reg: register location and the size for the following register
+ regions in the specified order.
+ - Efuse MAC address register
+- dma-coherent: Present if dma operations are coherent
+- big-endian: Keystone devices can be operated in a mode where the DSP is in
+ the big endian mode. In such cases enable this option. This
+ option should also be enabled if the ARM is operated in
+ big endian mode with the DSP in little endian.
+
+NetCP device properties: Device specification for NetCP sub-modules.
+1Gb/10Gb (gbe/xgbe) ethernet switch sub-module specifications.
+Required properties:
+- label: Must be "netcp-gbe" for 1Gb & "netcp-xgbe" for 10Gb.
+- reg: register location and the size for the following register
+ regions in the specified order.
+ - subsystem registers
+ - serdes registers
+- tx-channel: the navigator packet dma channel number for tx.
+- tx-queue: the navigator queue number associated with the tx dma channel.
+- interfaces: specification for each of the switch port to be registered as a
+ network interface in the stack.
+-- slave-port: Switch port number, 0 based numbering.
+-- link-interface: type of link interface, supported options are
+ - mac<->mac auto negotiate mode: 0
+ - mac<->phy mode: 1
+ - mac<->mac forced mode: 2
+ - mac<->fiber mode: 3
+ - mac<->phy mode with no mdio: 4
+ - 10Gb mac<->phy mode : 10
+ - 10Gb mac<->mac forced mode : 11
+----phy-handle: phandle to PHY device
+
+Optional properties:
+- enable-ale: NetCP driver keeps the address learning feature in the ethernet
+ switch module disabled. This attribute is to enable the address
+ learning.
+- secondary-slave-ports: specification for each of the switch port not be
+ registered as a network interface. NetCP driver
+ will only initialize these ports and attach PHY
+ driver to them if needed.
+
+NetCP interface properties: Interface specification for NetCP sub-modules.
+Required properties:
+- rx-channel: the navigator packet dma channel number for rx.
+- rx-queue: the navigator queue number associated with rx dma channel.
+- rx-pool: specifies the number of descriptors to be used & the region-id
+ for creating the rx descriptor pool.
+- tx-pool: specifies the number of descriptors to be used & the region-id
+ for creating the tx descriptor pool.
+- rx-queue-depth: number of descriptors in each of the free descriptor
+ queue (FDQ) for the pktdma Rx flow. There can be at
+ present a maximum of 4 queues per Rx flow.
+- rx-buffer-size: the buffer size for each of the Rx flow FDQ.
+- tx-completion-queue: the navigator queue number where the descriptors are
+ recycled after Tx DMA completion.
+
+Optional properties:
+- efuse-mac: If this is 1, then the MAC address for the interface is
+ obtained from the device efuse mac address register
+- local-mac-address: the driver is designed to use the of_get_mac_address api
+ only if efuse-mac is 0. When efuse-mac is 0, the MAC
+ address is obtained from local-mac-address. If this
+ attribute is not present, then the driver will use a
+ random MAC address.
+- "netcp-device label": phandle to the device specification for each of NetCP
+ sub-module attached to this interface.
