-Marvell Distributed Switch Architecture Device Tree Bindings
-------------------------------------------------------------
+Distributed Switch Architecture Device Tree Bindings
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+Two bindings exist, one of which has been deprecated due to
+limitations.
+
+Current Binding
+---------------
+
+Switches are true Linux devices and can be probes by any means. Once
+probed, they register to the DSA framework, passing a node
+pointer. This node is expected to fulfil the following binding, and
+may contain additional properties as required by the device it is
+embedded within.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- ports		: A container for child nodes representing switch ports.
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- dsa,member	: A two element list indicates which DSA cluster, and position
+		  within the cluster a switch takes. <0 0> is cluster 0,
+		  switch 0. <0 1> is cluster 0, switch 1. <1 0> is cluster 1,
+		  switch 0. A switch not part of any cluster (single device
+		  hanging off a CPU port) must not specify this property
+
+The ports container has the following properties
+
+Required properties:
+
+- #address-cells	: Must be 1
+- #size-cells		: Must be 0
+
+Each port children node must have the following mandatory properties:
+- reg			: Describes the port address in the switch
+- label			: Describes the label associated with this port, which
+                          will become the netdev name. Special labels are
+			  "cpu" to indicate a CPU port and "dsa" to
+			  indicate an uplink/downlink port between switches in
+			  the cluster.
+
+A port labelled "dsa" has the following mandatory property:
+
+- link			: Should be a list of phandles to other switch's DSA
+  			  port. This port is used as the outgoing port
+			  towards the phandle ports. The full routing
+			  information must be given, not just the one hop
+			  routes to neighbouring switches.
+
+A port labelled "cpu" has the following mandatory property:
+
+- ethernet		: Should be a phandle to a valid Ethernet device node.
+                          This host device is what the switch port is
+			  connected to.
+
+Port child nodes may also contain the following optional standardised
+properties, described in binding documents:
+
+- phy-handle		: Phandle to a PHY on an MDIO bus. See
+			  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet.txt
+			  for details.
+
+- phy-mode		: See
+			  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet.txt
+			  for details.
+
+- fixed-link		: Fixed-link subnode describing a link to a non-MDIO
+			  managed entity. See
+			  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/fixed-link.txt
+			  for details.
+
+Example
+
+The following example shows three switches on three MDIO busses,
+linked into one DSA cluster.

+
+Deprecated Binding
+------------------
+
+The deprecated binding makes use of a platform device to represent the
+switches. The switches themselves are not Linux devices, and make use
+of an MDIO bus for management.
 
 Required properties:
 - compatible		: Should be "marvell,dsa"
