Hi!

Thanks for the support.

Yes, after port is configured, ethtool produces right results:

 Speed: 100Mb/s
 Duplex: Full

Before that, it looks rather confusing:

root@miro:~# ethtool lan2
root@miro:~# ethtool lan2
Settings for lan2:
...
	Speed: Unknown!
	Duplex: Unknown! (255)

That would be nice :-).

I don't think standard utility exists. Binary file which can be
written by userspace shoudl be enough.

I do have:
                mac0: ethernet@800f0000 {
	                       phy-mode = "rmii";
	                       pinctrl-names = "default";
			       ...
	       }

I disabled second ethernet port in the dts so it could not interfere
with testing, butno change.

Is there any way to debug the host port problems? I do have

   spi@0 {
        compatible = "microchip,ksz8895";
	...
 	ports {
 		port@4 {
 			reg = <4>;
 			label = "cpu";
 			ethernet = <&mac0>;
 			fixed-link {
 			    speed = <100>;
 			    full-duplex;
 			    };
 		};
        };
 };

On one side, and

 mac0: ethernet@800f0000 {
       phy-mode = "rmii";
       status = "okay";
       fixed-link {
       		  speed = <100>;
 		  full-duplex;
   };
 };

on the other...

Thanks,
									Pavel
