Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2009 02:29:00 +0400 From: Anton Vorontsov <avorontsov@...mvista.com> To: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: Grant Likely <grant.likely@...retlab.ca>, Li Yang <leoli@...escale.com>, Andy Fleming <afleming@...escale.com>, netdev@...r.kernel.org, linuxppc-dev@...abs.org Subject: [PATCH 0/4 for 2.6.31] NET: Revive fixed link support Hi all, The fixed link support is broken since The Big OF MDIO Rework, the rework simply removed most of the code that was needed for fixed links. Too bad I didn't notice this earlier, I saw a bunch of patches on the ml, but unfortunately I didn't look very close presuming that Grant knew what he was doing. :-) And obviously I didn't test linux-next on anything that requires a fixed link. Anyway, here are four patches. The first one adds the fixed link support to a framework, otherwise we'd duplicate the code across the drivers (as we did previously), and I tried to keep drivers' changes minimal. Patches 2 and 3 are for the drivers that I tested in run-time, with normal PHYs, and fixed links. Patch #4 was build-tested, but I believe it should work in run-time too.
