Subject: [PATCH net v2] net: xscale: publish the IXP46x PTP OF module alias
Date: Sun, 20 Sep 2026 11:45:57 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260920034557.17734-1-hppiscas@163.com> (raw)
The IXP46x PTP driver matches intel,ixp46x-ptp-timer via its OF table,
but does not export that table. A module build therefore lacks the OF
alias used to automatically load the timer driver.
Export the existing table without changing the matching or probe logic.
The issue was found by our static-analysis tool.
Fixes: e9e506221b42 ("ixp4xx_eth: Probe the PTP module from the device tree")

identify the PTP driver in the subject.
