Broadcom BCM54610 Linux support

Broadcom BCM54610 Linux support

Hi,

I found the phy driver which supports broadcom BCM5461. But I am not
sure if this driver does support BCM54610 in fiber mode as well? Or if
there are any open datasheets which could be used to write a mainline
driver for it. I would appretiate any information about this.

Thanks,

Markus

There are not publicly available datasheets as far as I can tell, the
current driver does not support anything but copper modes.

If you have reference code from somewhere else (e.g: bootloader or a
Broadcom SDK), I would be inclined to port it over the Linux PHY driver.

Thanks. Unfortunately I don't have any reference code that I could use
to support BCM54610 in fiber mode. So it's probably better to use a
different PHY with more public information.

Thanks,
