Sean Anderson says: ==================== net: phy: Add support for rate matching This adds support for phy rate matching: when a phy adapts between differing phy interface and link speeds. It was originally submitted as part of [1], which is considered "v1" of this series. Several past discussions [2-4] around adding rate adaptation provide some context. Although in earlier versions of this series, userspace could disable rate matching, now it is only possible to determine the current rate adaptation type. Disabling or otherwise configuring rate adaptation has been left for future work. However, because currently only RATE_MATCH_PAUSE is implemented, it is possible to disable rate adaptation by modifying the advertisement appropriately.

It has been rendered unnecessary due to simplification of the rate adaptation patches. Thanks Russell! - Rewrite cover letter to better reflect the opinions of the developers involved Changes in v2: - Add (read-only) ethtool support for rate adaptation - Add comments clarifying the register defines - Add locking to phy_get_rate_adaptation - Always use the rate adaptation setting to determine the interface speed/duplex (instead of sometimes using the interface mode). - Determine the interface speed and max mac speed directly instead of guessing based on the caps. - Move part of commit message to cover letter, as it gives a good overview of the whole series, and allows this patch to focus more on the specifics. - Reorder variables in aqr107_read_rate - Use int/defines instead of enum to allow for use in ioctls/netlink - Use the phy's rate adaptation setting to determine whether to use its link speed/duplex or the MAC's speed/duplex with MLO_AN_INBAND. ==================== 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 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.
