Subject[PATCH RFC net-next v2 0/8] net: phy: C45-over-C22 access
Date
Hi,

This is the result of this discussion:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/240354b0a54b37e8b5764773711b8aa3@walle.cc/

The goal here is to get the GYP215 and LAN8814 running on the Microchip
LAN9668 SoC. The LAN9668 suppports one external bus and unfortunately, the
LAN8814 has a bug which makes it impossible to use C45 on that bus.
Fortunately, it was the intention of the GPY215 driver to be used on a C22
bus. But I think this could have never really worked, because the
phy_get_c45_ids() will always do c45 accesses and thus on MDIO bus drivers
which will correctly check for the MII_ADDR_C45 flag and return -EOPNOTSUPP
the function call will fail and thus gpy_probe() will fail. This series
tries to fix that and will lay the foundation to add a workaround for the
LAN8814 bug by forcing an MDIO bus to be c22-only.

At the moment, the probe_capabilities is taken into account to decide if
we have to use C45-over-C22. What is still missing from this series is the
handling of a device tree property to restrict the probe_capabilities to
c22-only.

Since net-next is closed, this is marked as RFC to get some early feedback.

Changes since RFC v1:
- use __phy_mmd_indirect() in mdiobus_probe_mmd_read()
- add new properties has_c45 c45_over_c22 (and remove is_c45)
- drop MDIOBUS_NO_CAP handling, Andrew is preparing a series to
add probe_capabilities to mark all C45 capable MDIO bus drivers

Michael Walle (8):
net: phy: mscc-miim: reject clause 45 register accesses
net: phy: mscc-miim: add probe_capabilities
net: phy: add error checks in __phy_mmd_indirect() and export it
net: phy: add error handling for __phy_{read,write}_mmd
net: phy: support indirect c45 access in get_phy_c45_ids()
net: phy: add support for C45-over-C22 transfers
phy: net: introduce phy_promote_to_c45()
net: phy: mxl-gpy: remove unneeded ops
