Subject: [PATCH net-next v15 06/10] net: phy: phy_port: Store information about a port's upstream
Date: Sat, 1 Aug 2026 09:43:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260801074332.98755-7-maxime.chevallier@bootlin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260801074332.98755-1-maxime.chevallier@bootlin.com>
MII phy_ports are not meant to be connected directly to a link partner.
They are meant to feed into some media converter devices that will
expose an MDI phy_port, so far we only support SFP modules for that.
In the case an MDI phy_port is backed by an MII port (e.g. a SFP
module's port, backed by the SFP cage port), let's keep track of the
port id of the MII port backing it.
