Linux kernel source tree

At the moment, PORT_MII is reported in the ethtool ops. This is odd because it is an interface between the MAC and the PHY and no external port. Some network card drivers will overwrite the port to twisted pair or fiber, though. Even worse, the MDI/MDIX setting is only used by ethtool if the port is twisted pair. Set the port to PORT_TP by default because most PHY drivers are copper ones. If there is fibre support and it is enabled, the PHY driver will set it to PORT_FIBRE. This will change reporting PORT_MII to either PORT_TP or PORT_FIBRE; except for the genphy fallback driver.

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.
