ethtool: provide UAPI for PHY master/slave configuration.
This UAPI is needed for BroadR-Reach 100BASE-T1 devices. Due to lack of auto-negotiation support, we needed to be able to configure the MASTER-SLAVE role of the port manually or from an application in user space. The same UAPI can be used for 1000BASE-T or MultiGBASE-T devices to force MASTER or SLAVE role. See IEEE 802.3-2018: 22.2.4.3.7 MASTER-SLAVE control register (Register 9) 22.2.4.3.8 MASTER-SLAVE status register (Register 10) 40.5.2 MASTER-SLAVE configuration resolution 45.2.1.185.1 MASTER-SLAVE config value (1.2100.14) 45.2.7.10 MultiGBASE-T AN control 1 register (Register 7.32) The MASTER-SLAVE role affects the clock configuration: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When the PHY is configured as MASTER, the PMA Transmit function shall source TX_TCLK from a local clock source. When configured as SLAVE, the PMA Transmit function shall source TX_TCLK from the clock recovered from data stream provided by MASTER. iMX6Q KSZ9031 XXX ------\ /-----------\ /------------\ | | | | | MAC |<----RGMII----->| PHY Slave |<------>| PHY Master | |<--- 125 MHz ---+-<------/ | | \ | ------/ \-----------/ \------------/ ^ \-TX_TCLK ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Since some clock or link related issues are only reproducible in a specific MASTER-SLAVE-role, MAC and PHY configuration, it is beneficial to provide generic (not 100BASE-T1 specific) interface to the user space for configuration flexibility and trouble shooting.
