Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next] net: ethtool: add BaseC2C medium & AUI C2C link modes
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 04:06:56 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260927223656.2528362-1-siddaraju.dh@intel.com> (raw)
IEEE 802.3 defines a family of chip-to-chip (C2C) Attachment Unit
Interfaces (AUI) and SFF-8418 defines the 10 Gb/s SFI equivalent. These
are electrical interfaces between two ICs on the same board, with a
fully specified lane count, signalling rate and modulation.
Add a new BaseC2C link medium (ETHTOOL_LINK_MEDIUM_BASEC2C) and the
following C2C link modes, that will use the BaseC2C medium:
==========================================================
Link mode Interface #Lane Specification
==========================================================
10Gb/s per lane (NRZ, 10.3125 GBd)
10000baseC2C/Full 10G SFI C2C 1 SFF-8418
25Gb/s per lane (NRZ, 25.78125 GBd)
25000baseC2C/Full 25GAUI C2C 1 IEEE 802.3-2018 Annex 109A
50000baseC2C2/Full LAUI-2 C2C 2 IEEE 802.3-2022 Annex 135B
100000baseC2C4/Full CAUI-4 C2C 4 IEEE 802.3-2018 Annex 83D
50Gb/s per lane (PAM4, 26.5625 GBd)
50000baseC2C/Full 50GAUI-1 C2C 1 IEEE 802.3-2022 Annex 135F
100000baseC2C2/Full 100GAUI-2 C2C 2 IEEE 802.3-2022 Annex 135F
200000baseC2C4/Full 200GAUI-4 C2C 4 IEEE 802.3-2022 Annex 120D
100Gb/s per lane (PAM4, 53.125 GBd)
100000baseC2C/Full 100GAUI-1 C2C 1 IEEE 802.3ck Annex 120F
200000baseC2C2/Full 200GAUI-2 C2C 2 IEEE 802.3ck Annex 120F
400000baseC2C4/Full 400GAUI-4 C2C 4 IEEE 802.3ck Annex 120F
All new modes will use the BaseC2C medium.
