Hi All,
I am trying to bring up 2.6.14 Kernel on a MPC8540 processor board with an ethernet interface. The board is using the VSC 8201 Gigabit LAN PHY. Can someone suggest any existing driver i can use for this PHY or any driver for a PHY that is very close to this.
Thanks for the help.

You don't need driver for the PHY. Just program the MPC8540 TSEC.
Will the initialization of "phyid" in the architecture setup be enough to connect the to the PHY and for gianfar.c - init_phy to recognize it.
I'm refering to initialization in file: arch/ppc/platforms/85xx/mpc8540_ads.c ============================================================ /* setup the board related information for the enet controllers
*/ pdata = (struct gianfar_platform_data *) ppc_sys_get_pdata(MPC85xx_TSEC1); if (pdata) { pdata->board_flags = FSL_GIANFAR_BRD_HAS_PHY_INTR; pdata->interruptPHY = MPC85xx_IRQ_EXT5; pdata->phyid = 0; /* fixup phy address */ pdata->phy_reg_addr += binfo->bi_immr_base; memcpy(pdata->mac_addr, binfo->bi_enetaddr, 6); } ============================================================Have something to add?
