Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] net: dsa: mxl862xx: MDIO bus integrity and optimization
Date: Sat, 21 Mar 2026 05:18:46 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1774070039.git.daniel@makrotopia.org> (raw)
The MxL862xx firmware offers opt-in CRC validation on the MDIO/MMD
command interface to guard against bit errors on the bus.
The driver has not used this until now.
This series enables CRC protection on both the command registers (CRC-6)
and data payloads (CRC-16), and reduces MDIO bus traffic by bulk-zeroing
registers instead of writing zero-valued words individually.
