Espressobin boards have 3 ethernet ports and some of them got assigned more
then one MAC address. MAC addresses are stored in U-Boot environment.

Since commit a2c7023f7075c ("net: dsa: read mac address from DT for slave
device") kernel can use MAC addresses from DT for particular DSA port.

Currently Espressobin DTS file contains alias just for ethernet0.

This patch defines additional ethernet aliases in Espressobin DTS files, so
bootloader can fill correct MAC address for DSA switch ports if more MAC
addresses were specified.

DT alias ethernet1 is used for wan port, DT aliases ethernet2 and ethernet3
are used for lan ports for both Espressobin revisions (V5 and V7).

I'm not sure a Fixes: is appropriate here. What is actually broken?
This just seems like a new feature.

Hello Andrew! With "fixes" I mean that this patch fixes aliases list in
that mentioned commit as it was incomplete. Probably better would be
"related" or "extended" keyword in this case. But I do not know.

I would not say it is a "new feature". But rather that patch in this
email fixes issue that Linux kernel did not set correct MAC address for
DSA slave ports. I think it is something which could be backported also
to stable releases as "ignoring" vendor/factory MAC address is not
correct behavior.

If you have an idea how to reformulate commit description I will do it.

Hi Pali

The rules for stable are here:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.8/process/stable-kernel-rules.html

Do you think it fits?

Hello Andrew! I think it fits into those rules. As I wrote it fixes real
bug that Linux kernel does not use correct MAC address for particular
DSA slaves / ethernet ports. But if you or other people have opposite
opinion I will of course respect it.

My dts-foo is a little rusty, but now that you labeled the ports in the 
.dtsi, can this whole "switch0" block reduced to something like:

&switch0port1 {
	label = "lan1";
};

&switch0port3 {
	label = "wan";
};

?

This label is unused it seems.

Probably yes.

But that is definitely too much for stable.

Yes, this suggested change is not for stable, but looks like a nice
cleanup. So it could be done in followup patch.

Andre, are you going to prepare and test this followup change?

Yes, it is unused, but I defined labels for all ports so it would be
clean that ports are indexed from zero and not from one. Also it looks
inconsistent if some of DSA ports have labels and some does not.

I can prep the patch if you like, but the suggested cleanup only affects 
the v7 dts files. I don't have that hardware version to test it, so 
could only send an untested patch.

Andre

As a result of this cleanup should be binary DTB file for V7 with same
structure as DTB file without such cleanup patch, right? And this test
(structure / content of compiled file) does not need particular hardware.

Should be. If need be, you can decompile the DTB back to a DTS and
make sure it looks correct.

Ok! Andrew, I would like to ask another question, how to correctly
define that this patch depends on a2c7023f7075c? I specified it in
human-readable part of commit description, but for backporting it would
also need some machine-readable format. So patch would not be
occasionally backported to older/stable kernel where a2c7023f7075c is
not available.

Based on stable-kernel-rules.html document I think that following line
should define this dependency in machine readable format:

Gregory, if it is correct, would you add that line into commit sign-off
area where is existing Fixes: line?
