Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 3/5] ethtool: (uapi) Add ETHTOOL_PHY_DOWNSHIFT to PHY tunables
Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2016 10:29:18 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1479115760-1182-4-git-send-email-allan.nielsen@microsemi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1479115760-1182-1-git-send-email-allan.nielsen@microsemi.com>
From: Raju Lakkaraju <Raju.Lakkaraju@microsemi.com>
For operation in cabling environments that are incompatible with
1000BAST-T, PHY device may provide an automatic link speed downshift
operation. When enabled, the device automatically changes its 1000BAST-T
auto-negotiation to the next slower speed after a configured number of
failed attempts at 1000BAST-T. This feature is useful in setting up in
networks using older cable installations that include only pairs A and B,
and not pairs C and D.
