The 'ethtool' interface in the Kernel seem to always query settings for PHY0, irrespective of the PHY specified, while issuing the 'ethtool' command. For example when issueing 'ethtool -s eth0 phyad 1 speed 100' command to set the speed of PHY1's speed, the current software would first retrieve PHY0 settings, then apply the request settings (in this case 'speed') on top. It then uses this (PHY0's config with new speed) settings to update the PHY1, which now ends up with partial configurations of PHY0 and the new speed. This patch series is based on Linux v4.1-rc4 and is available in: https://github.com/Broadcom/cygnus-linux/tree/net-core-ethtool-fix-v1 Arun Parameswaran (1): SWMAPYVR-4339 net: core: 'ethtool' issue with querying phy settings net/core/ethtool.c | 10 +++++++++- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) -- 1.7.9.5 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
