  The queue configuration is referenced by snps,mtl-rx-config and
snps,mtl-tx-config. Most in-tree DTs put the referenced object
as child node of the dwmac node.

This adds proper description for this setup, which has the
advantage of properly making sure only known properties are
used.

If this field is specific to this device, then you need vendor prefix:
snps,rq-queues-config

Please update the DTS example with all this.

Is DCB and AVB compatible with each other? If not, then this should be
rather enum (with a string for algorithm name).

This applies also to other fields which are mutually exclusive.

Use hyphens, no underscores.
(This is already an incompatible change in bindings, so we can fix up
the naming)

Is it really a boolean?

Same question

Not for a node name...

Yes and I agree it is ugly. But this is not a new binding, but just
properly describing the existing binding. It's not my fault :)

No, this is not an incompatible change in the bindings. It's 100%
compatible. What this patch does is removing the text description
for 'snps,mtl-tx-config' and instead documenting the node in YAML
syntax. 'snps,mtl-tx-config' does not specify where this node should
be, so many DTS files do this:

ethernet {
    compatible = "blabla";
    snps,mtl-tx-config = <&eth_tx_setup>;
    snps,mtl-rx-config = <&eth_rx_setup>;

    eth_tx_setup: tx-queues-config {
        properties;
    };

    eth_rx_setup: rx-queues-config {
        properties;
    };
};

This right now triggers a dt-validate warning, because the binding
does not expect 'tx-queues-config' and 'rx-queues-config'. This
patch fixes the binding to allow that common setup. Also it improves
the validation for this common case. Having the queue config stored
somewhere else is still supported, but in that case the node is not
validated.

No, they are mistakes on my side. I will fix this in v2.

I understand (and did not think it's your fault), but you are
redesigning them. Existing DTS will have to be updated. If this is
already implemented by some other DTS, then well... they did not follow
bindings, so it's their fault. :)

What I want to say, why refactoring it if the new format is still poor?

Old binding did not document "tx-queues-config". Old binding had
"snps,mtl-tx-config" which was a phandle, so this is an ABI break of
bindings.

You are changing the binding - adding new properties.

Yes, I understand. It also brings a way to add new bindings bypassing
the review process. It's super easy now to omit review, just do like this:
1. Submit DTS with anything, without bindings.
2. It might be applied. If not, keep resubmitting to different
maintainers or platforms.
3. Once it is in mainline, send whatever changes one wants saying "I am
just fixing bindings" or "documenting existing usage".

The properties were added in d976a525c371 ("net: stmmac: multiple queues
dt configuration") which was not reviewed/acked by Rob.

Awesome! My method of bypassing review works!

I understand this as well and your way is good. I am not objecting to
the method itself.

But if you refactor this and introduce new properties to the binding,
please make them correct.

Bah, not ABI break, just change in bindings, of course :)

Hi,

The new binding still has the phandle. The only thing I changed is
explicitly allowing the referenced node to be a subnode of the dwmac
node. This is 100% compatible, since the binding does not specify
where the referenced node should be. Only the example suggested it
could be next to the ethernet node. But changing any properties in
the config node means a ABI break requiring code changes.

Note, that right now 4/7 devicetrees with snps,mtl-tx-config already
follow the scheme I documented. The other 3 have the queue config
below the root node like the current example:

has the queues config in /:
 * arch/arm/boot/dts/artpec6.dtsi
 * arch/arm64/boot/dts/mediatek/mt2712e.dtsi
 * arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/sa8155p-adp.dts

has the queues config in the ethernet node:
 * arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx8mp-verdin.dtsi
 * arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx8mp-evk.dts
 * arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3568.dtsi
 * arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi

After my change both are considered valid. Anyways I'm doing this
for rk3588 and planned to follow the subnode style. But if I have
to fully fix this mess I will just put the queue config to the
root node instead and let somebody else figure this out.

If we are not going to fix it, at least let's improve the constraints,
so add allOf:if:then here (with proper indentation) which disallows
mixing mutually exclusive properties.
Here's example:
