Hello,
I am building a prototype for a new product based on a Lanner, Inc. embedded
PC. It is an Intel Celeron-based system with two host I210 GbE chips connected
to 2 MV88E6172 chips (one NIC to one switch). Everything appears to show up
hardware-wise. My question is, what is the next step? How does DSA know which
NICs are intended to be masters? Is this supposed to be auto-detected or is
this knowledge supposed to be communicated explicitly. Reading through the DSA
driver code I see that there is a check of the OF property list for the device
for a "label"/"cpu" property/value pair that needs to be present. Who sets
this and when?
I'm sorry for this basic question, but Google has not enlightened me.
Thanks!
Dave
