2 PHY subsystem
7 This document explains the Generic PHY Framework along with the APIs provided,
13 *PHY* is the abbreviation for physical layer. It is used to connect a device
14 to the physical medium e.g., the USB controller has a PHY to provide functions
17 controllers have PHY functionality embedded into it and others use an external
18 PHY. Other peripherals that use PHY include Wireless LAN, Ethernet,
21 The intention of creating this framework is to bring the PHY drivers spread
25 This framework will be of use only to devices that use external PHY (PHY
28 Registering/Unregistering the PHY provider
31 PHY provider refers to an entity that implements one or more PHY instances.
32 For the simple case where the PHY provider implements only a single instance of
33 the PHY, the framework provides its own implementation of of_xlate in
34 of_phy_simple_xlate. If the PHY provider implements multiple instances, it
49 arguments. For the dt boot case, all PHY providers should use one of the above
50 2 macros to register the PHY provider.
52 Often the device tree nodes associated with a PHY provider will contain a set
53 of children that each represent a single PHY. Some bindings may nest the child
72 unregister the PHY.
74 Creating the PHY
77 The PHY driver should create the PHY in order for other peripheral controllers
78 to make use of it. The PHY framework provides 2 APIs to create the PHY.
88 The PHY drivers can use one of the above 2 APIs to create the PHY by passing
90 phy_ops is a set of function pointers for performing PHY operations such as
94 can use phy_set_drvdata() after creating the PHY and use phy_get_drvdata() in
97 Getting a reference to the PHY
100 Before the controller can make use of the PHY, it has to get a reference to
101 it. This framework provides the following APIs to get a reference to the PHY.
118 phy_get, devm_phy_get and devm_phy_optional_get can be used to get the PHY.
121 non-dt boot, it should contain the label of the PHY. The two
122 devm_phy_get associates the device with the PHY using devres on
123 successful PHY get. On driver detach, release function is invoked on
152 Some PHY drivers may not implement :c:func:`phy_init` or :c:func:`phy_power_on`,
158 :c:func:`phy_power_on`, although some PHY drivers may allow it at any time.
160 Releasing a reference to the PHY
163 When the controller no longer needs the PHY, it has to release the reference
164 to the PHY it has obtained using the APIs mentioned in the above section. The
165 PHY framework provides 2 APIs to release a reference to the PHY.
172 Both these APIs are used to release a reference to the PHY and devm_phy_put
173 destroys the devres associated with this PHY.
175 Destroying the PHY
178 When the driver that created the PHY is unloaded, it should destroy the PHY it
184 Both these APIs destroy the PHY and devm_phy_destroy destroys the devres
185 associated with this PHY.
190 This subsystem is pm runtime enabled. So while creating the PHY,
192 while destroying the PHY, pm_runtime_disable is called. Note that the phy
