Is anyone working on adding MII PHY support? I've implemented support for my custom 8260 board which has a quad enet phy. Now I'm about to add code into fcc_enet.c to handle things like link autonegotiation and state changes. But before I go too far, I thought it would be useful to find out if I am about to duplicate work.
I'm not ready to publish anything yet; I already have generic MII support (not ppc specific) with hooks to phy device specific drivers and architecture dependent h/w interface (i.e. board dependent 8260 MDIO). Over time, new phy device drivers could be added and support for other boards too. I envisage new ioctls to control/view the phy, and patching ifconfig to use them. Please let me know if you know of similar work. Thanks Jim ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
