Enabling kernel symbol CONFIG_NVMEM_U_BOOT_ENV allows to use u-boot
environement variable ethaddr with nvmen. That way it is possible to assign
the MAC address to the ethernet device driver.
Example of usage in dts:
....
partition@600000 {
compatible = "u-boot,env";
label = "0:appsblenv";
reg = <0x600000 0x10000>;
macaddr_lan: ethaddr {
};
};
....
&dp5 {
status = "okay";
phy-handle = <&qca8081>;
label = "wan";
nvmem-cells = <&macaddr_lan>;
nvmem-cell-names = "mac-address-ascii";
mac-address-increment = <1>;
};
This is needed for Zyxel NBG7815.
