+Fixed link Device Tree binding
+------------------------------
+
+Some Ethernet MACs have a "fixed link", and are not connected to a
+normal MDIO-managed PHY device. For those situations, a Device Tree
+binding allows to describe a "fixed link".
+
+Such a fixed link situation is described by creating a 'fixed-link'
+sub-node of the Ethernet MAC device node, with the following
+properties:
+
+* 'speed' (integer, mandatory), to indicate the link speed. Accepted
+  values are 10, 100 and 1000
+* 'full-duplex' (boolean, optional), to indicate that full duplex is
+  used. When absent, half duplex is assumed.
+* 'pause' (boolean, optional), to indicate that pause should be
+  enabled.
+* 'asym-pause' (boolean, optional), to indicate that asym_pause should
+  be enabled.
+
+Examples:
+
+ethernet@0 {
+	...
+	fixed-link {
+	      speed = <1000>;
+	      full-duplex;
+	};
+	...
+};

+	  Fixed PHY is used for having a 'fixed-link' to another MAC with a direct
+	  connection (MII, RGMII, ...).
+	  There is nothing like autoneogation and so
+	  on, the link is always up with fixed speed and fixed duplex-setting.
