Hi, This series cleans up the phylib MMD accessors. We have two accessors at present, phy_(read|write)_mmd() and phy_(read|write)_mmd_indirect() The _indirect methods access the MMD registers via a clause 22 phy, whereas the non-_indirect methods acess via clause 45 accesses. Current PHY-independent parts of phylib (such as EEE) access the MMD registers via the _indirect methods, which is no good if you have a clause 45 PHY that doesn't respond to clause 22 accesses. In order to make these features available, we need to rework these accessors such that they can access the MMD registers using a method dependent on the clause that the PHY conforms with. This series of patches does exactly that - we merge the functionality of the indirect accesses into the clause 45 accessors, and use these exclusively to access MMD registers. Internally, the new clause independent MMD accessors indirect via the PHY drivers read_mmd/write_mmd methods if present, otherwise fall back to using clause 45 accesses if the PHY is a clause 45 phy, or clause 22 indirect accesses if the PHY is clause 22. Note: confusingly, phy_read_mmd_indirect() vs phy_read_mmd() switches the order of prtad and devad, which means that converting between the two is not a simple matter of just replacing the function name. Same applies for the write methods. drivers/net/phy/Makefile | 2 +- drivers/net/phy/bcm-phy-lib.c | 12 ++--- drivers/net/phy/dp83867.c | 25 +++++----- drivers/net/phy/intel-xway.c | 26 +++++----- drivers/net/phy/micrel.c | 13 +++-- drivers/net/phy/microchip.c | 5 +- drivers/net/phy/phy-core.c | 101 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/net/phy/phy.c | 110 ++++-------------------------------------- drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c | 4 +- drivers/net/usb/lan78xx.c | 10 ++-- include/linux/phy.h | 80 +++++++++--------------------- 11 files changed, 178 insertions(+), 210 deletions(-) -- RMK's Patch system: http://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.6Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
