2021-03-11net: phy: Expose phydev::dev_flags through sysfsFlorian Fainelli1-0/+12
phydev::dev_flags contains a bitmask of configuration bits requested by the consumer of a PHY device (Ethernet MAC or switch) towards the PHY driver. Since these flags are often used for requesting LED or other type of configuration being able to quickly audit them without instrumenting the kernel is useful.

2020-10-30docs: ABI: cleanup several ABI documentsMauro Carvalho Chehab1-0/+2
There are some ABI documents that, while they don't generate any warnings, they have issues when parsed by get_abi.pl script on its output result. Address them, in order to provide a clean output.

The phylink conflict was between a bug fix by Russell King to make sure we have a consistent PHY interface mode, and a change in net-next to pull some code in phylink_resolve() into the helper functions phylink_mac_link_{up,down}() On the dp83867 side it's mostly overlapping changes, with the 'net' side removing a condition that was supposed to trigger for RGMII but because of how it was coded never actually could trigger.

2019-05-30net: phy: Add phy_standalone sysfs entryIoana Ciornei1-0/+8
Export a phy_standalone device attribute that is meant to give the indication that this PHY lacks an attached_dev and its corresponding sysfs link. The attribute will be created only when the phy_attach_direct() function will be called with a NULL net_device.

2019-05-29Documentation: net-sysfs: Remove duplicate PHY device documentationFlorian Fainelli1-6/+13
Both sysfs-bus-mdio and sysfs-class-net-phydev contain the same duplication information. There is not currently any MDIO bus specific attribute, but there are PHY device (struct phy_device) specific attributes. Use the more precise description from sysfs-bus-mdio and carry that over to sysfs-class-net-phydev.

2017-06-07net: phy: add XAUI and 10GBASE-KR PHY connection typesRussell King1-1/+1
XAUI allows XGMII to reach an extended distance by using a XGXS layer at each end of the MAC to PHY link, operating over four Serdes lanes. 10GBASE-KR is a single lane Serdes backplane ethernet connection method with autonegotiation on the link. Some PHYs use this to connect to the ethernet interface at 10G speeds, switching to other connection types when utilising slower speeds. 10GBASE-KR is also used for XFI and SFI to connect to XFP and SFP fiber modules.
