The block diagram is a vendor diagram, the vendor can draw whatever diagram they want. What does the Mainline Linux networking block diagram look like? O.K. I've somewhat had enough of this discussion. For the Networking parts: NACK To get that revoked, make the PHY driver drive the PHY. Hide away as much of this bad networking design in the bootloader. You are free to continue working on the MFD and other parts which are not networking, because i'm not a Maintainer there. Andrew
