Linux kernel source tree
Aquantia PHY-s require firmware to be loaded before they start operating. It can be automatically loaded in case when there is a SPI-NOR connected to Aquantia PHY-s or can be loaded from the host via MDIO. This patch adds support for loading the firmware via MDIO as in most cases there is no SPI-NOR being used to save on cost. Firmware loading code itself is ported from mainline U-boot with cleanups. The firmware has mixed values both in big and little endian. PHY core itself is big-endian but it expects values to be in little-endian. The firmware is little-endian but CRC-16 value for it is stored at the end of firmware in big-endian. It seems the PHY does the conversion internally from firmware that is little-endian to the PHY that is big-endian on using the mailbox but mailbox returns a big-endian CRC-16 to verify the written data integrity.

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.
