Subject: [PATCH net-next 09/13] net: phy: phy_port: Store information about a MII port's occupancy
Date: Tue, 27 Jan 2026 14:41:57 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260127134202.8208-10-maxime.chevallier@bootlin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260127134202.8208-1-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, so far we only
support SFP modules for that.
We have information about what MII they can handle, however we don't
store anything about whether they are currently connected to an SFP
module or not. As phy_port aims at listing the front-facing ports, let's
store an "occupied" bit to know whether or not a MII port is currently
front-facing (i.e. there's no module in the SFP cage), or occupied (i.e.
there's an SFP module).
