Re: [yocto] eth devices not visible after applictaion of phy patch

[Mistyron]

I realized that dmesg also shows me:
mdio_bus 11c20000.ethernet-ffffffff: MDIO device at address 0 is missing.
and
mdio_bus 11c30000.ethernet-ffffffff: MDIO device at address 0 is missing.
while:
# mdio 11c20000.ethernet-ffffffff
 DEV      PHY-ID  LINK
0x00  0x00070572  up
i.e. once the system is booted, the PHYs are active and reachabele over 
MDIO.
The MDIO addresses are set to 0, both PHYs are connected to dedicated 
network (and MDIO) interfaces.

Hi list,

I want to apply a patch to the ethernet devices for the phy, where the 
patch looks like:

One question I have is, if the ampersand (&) should apply to the top 
eth node (as seen above) or the inner phy nodes, instead?, I only want 
to modify the phy settings.

When I boot the system with the kernel & device tree, on bootup I see 
the following messages:

[    6.721177] ravb 11c30000.ethernet eth1: failed to connect PHY
[    6.869282] ravb 11c20000.ethernet eth0: failed to connect PHY

and when I log in and check contents in /proc/device-tree/ I don't see 
any network interfaces.
