Update: I upgraded tsec to DM_MDIO: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/[email protected]/ and it now prints the correct phy node: ar803x_of_init: found PHY node: ethernet-phy@2 Pretty sure that DM_MDIO is also how Michael tested this. What I'm pretty fuzzy about is: do we _need_ DM_MDIO for this to work? Who's more knowledgeable about this stuff around here? -Vladimir
