Linux kernel source tree
6ff3cddc36
We have an increasing number of drivers that are forcing auto-negotiation to be enabled for speeds of 1G or faster. It would appear that auto-negotiation is mandatory for speeds above 100M. In 802.3, Annex 40C's state diagrams seems to imply that mr_autoneg_enable (BMCR AN ENABLE) doesn't affect whether or not the AN state machines work for 1000base-T, and some PHY datasheets (e.g. Marvell Alaska) state that disabling mr_autoneg_enable leaves AN enabled but forced to 1G full duplex. Other PHY datasheets imply that BMCR AN ENABLE should not be cleared for >= 1G. Thus, this should be handled in phylib rather than in each driver. Rather than erroring out, arrange to implement the Marvell Alaska solution but in software for all PHYs: generate an appropriate single-speed advertisement for the requested speed, and keep AN enabled to the PHY driver. However, to avoid userspace API breakage, continue to report to userspace that we have AN disabled. Signed-off-by: Russell King (Oracle) <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
