Currently dozens of boards still do not use the driver model for the

In doc/driver-model/migration.rst I am missing a migration target day
for DM_ETH. Shouldn't define one? 2020-07 should be realistic.


Is there some guidance and/or examples on how to proceed to migrate an
Ethernet driver to DM_ETH, as there is for an SPI driver
(doc/driver-model/spi-howto.rst)

I'm looking at converting the mpc8xx_fec driver.


git grep -n UCLASS_ETH

yields many examples you could use for reference.

Have a look at doc/device-tree-bindings/net/ethernet.txt.

Best regards

Yes, for sure. I think Simon is just sending a reminder to me. ;)
