Linux kernel source tree
In NXP LS1028A there is a MAC-to-MAC internal link between enetc_port2
and mscc_felix_port4. This link operates at 2.5Gbps and is described as
such for the mscc_felix_port4 node.
The reason for the discrepancy is a limitation in the PHY library
support for fixed-link nodes. Due to the fact that the PHY library
registers a software PHY which emulates the clause 22 register map, the
drivers/net/phy/fixed_phy.c driver only supports speeds up to 1Gbps.
The mscc_felix_port4 node is probed by DSA, which does not use the PHY
library directly, but phylink, and phylink has a different representation
for fixed-link nodes, one that does not have the limitation of not being
able to represent speeds > 1Gbps.
Since the enetc driver was converted to phylink too as of commit

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
