Currently dozens of boards still do not use the driver model for the
network devices. This makes integration between devices in the UEFI
sub-system with the U-Boot devices complicated.
See: https://travis-ci.org/xypron2/u-boot/builds/569675547
In doc/driver-model/migration.rst I am missing a migration target day
for DM_ETH. Shouldn't define one? 2020-07 should be realistic.
Best regards
Heinrich

Yes, good idea.
Also we need to convert the Ethernet PHYs to DM.

Simon

In drivers/net/phy/ there isn't even a uclass. It makes sense to convert
this class of drivers too. But I guess it can be handles as a separate task.

Yes, for sure. I think Simon is just sending a reminder to me. ;)

Is there some guidance and/or examples on how to proceed to migrate an
Ethernet driver to DM_ETH, as there is for an SPI driver
(doc/driver-model/spi-howto.rst)
I'm looking at converting the mpc8xx_fec driver.
Thanks,
Christophe

git grep -n UCLASS_ETH
yields many examples you could use for reference.
Have a look at doc/device-tree-bindings/net/ethernet.txt.
