Issam Hamdi 61958b33ef net: phy: realtek: Add RTL8224 cable testing support
The RTL8224 can detect open pairs and short types (in same pair or some
other pair). The distance to this problem can be estimated. This is done
for each of the 4 pairs separately.

It is not meant to be run while there is an active link partner because
this interferes with the active test pulses.

Output with open 50 m cable:

  Pair A code Open Circuit, source: TDR
  Pair A, fault length: 51.79m, source: TDR
  Pair B code Open Circuit, source: TDR
  Pair B, fault length: 51.28m, source: TDR
  Pair C code Open Circuit, source: TDR
  Pair C, fault length: 50.46m, source: TDR
  Pair D code Open Circuit, source: TDR
  Pair D, fault length: 51.12m, source: TDR

Terminated cable:

  Pair A code OK, source: TDR
  Pair B code OK, source: TDR
  Pair C code OK, source: TDR
  Pair D code OK, source: TDR

Shorted cable (both short types are at roughly the same distance)

  Pair A code Short to another pair, source: TDR
  Pair A, fault length: 2.35m, source: TDR
  Pair B code Short to another pair, source: TDR
  Pair B, fault length: 2.15m, source: TDR
  Pair C code OK, source: TDR
  Pair D code Short within Pair, source: TDR
  Pair D, fault length: 1.94m, source: TDR

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 reStructuredText 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.
