In-band RGMII is supported for speeds of 10, 100 and 1000 Mbps. Unfortunately, I am not aware of the reason why RGMII at speeds 100 and 1000 Mbps was implemented in the driver in forced mode. As suggested by you, I will work on implementing it in in-band mode for all speeds and verify that it works, following which I will post the v2 of this series, with the following changes based on your feedback: 1. All interface mode specific configuration will be moved to mac_config(). 2. Since CPSW MAC supports USXGMII mode, MAC_5000FD will be added to the list of mac_capabilites unconditionally, unlike the current implementation. 3. In-band mode of operation will be enabled for all interface modes by default.
Regards, Siddharth.
