SPI (and others) has a way to define bus number in a aliases:
aliases {
ethernet4 = &enet4;
ethernet0 = &enet0;
ethernet1 = &enet1;
ethernet2 = &enet2;
ethernet3 = &enet3;
spi0 = &spi0
};
The 0 in the spi0 alias will translate to bus num 0 so one can control the /dev
nodes, like /dev/spidev0
I am looking for the same for ethernet devices:
ethernet4 = &enet4; /* should become eth4 */
ethernet0 = &enet0; /* should become eth0 */
but I cannot find something like that for eth devices.
Could such functionality be added?
