Subject: [PATCH net-next v1 1/1] net: phy: realtek: add MDI-X support for RTL8365MB-VC
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2026 11:20:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260929092007.1184843-1-o.rempel@pengutronix.de> (raw)

Add MDI-X configuration and status reporting for the RTL8365MB-VC internal
PHYs. Without a driver hook genphy cannot reach the chip's crossover
control register, so forcing MDI/MDI-X with "ethtool -s <dev> mdix on|off"
is a no-op and "ethtool <dev>" cannot report the resolved MDI-X state on
this PHY.
