We're using inband, although the PCS mode is PHYLINK_PCS_NEG_INBAND_DISABLED, meaning inband won't be used. As there is no PHY, we can't switch to MLO_AN_PHY. > [ 38.306362] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: phylink_mac_config: mode=inband/2500base-x/none adv=00,00000000,00008000,0000e240 pause=04 > [ 39.220149] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: interface 2 (mii) rate match none supports 0-3,6-7,13-14 > [ 39.229758] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: interface 3 (gmii) rate match none supports 0-3,5-7,13-14 > [ 39.239420] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: interface 4 (sgmii) rate match none supports 0-3,5-7,13-14 > [ 39.249173] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: interface 22 (1000base-x) rate match none supports 5-7,13-14 > [ 39.259080] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: interface 23 (2500base-x) rate match none supports 6-7,13-14,47 > [ 39.594676] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: PHY i2c:sfp-1:11 uses interfaces 4,23, validating 4,23 The PHY comes along... > [ 39.603992] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: interface 4 (sgmii) rate match none supports 0-3,5-7,13-14 > [ 39.650080] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: interface 23 (2500base-x) rate match none supports 6-7,13-14,47 > [ 39.660266] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: PHY [i2c:sfp-1:11] driver [RTL8221B-VB-CG 2.5Gbps PHY (C45)] (irq=POLL) > [ 39.671037] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: phy: 2500base-x setting supported 00,00000000,00008000,000060ef advertising 00,00000000,00008000,000060ef > [ 39.684761] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: requesting link mode inband/2500base-x with support 00,00000000,00008000,000060ef We decide to use MLO_AN_INBAND and 2500base-X, which we're already using. > [ 40.380076] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: phy link down 2500base-x/Unknown/Unknown/none/off > [ 40.397090] brlan: port 5(eth1) entered blocking state > [ 40.402223] brlan: port 5(eth1) entered disabled state > [ 40.407437] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: entered allmulticast mode > [ 40.414400] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: entered promiscuous mode > [ 44.500077] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: phy link up 2500base-x/2.5Gbps/Full/none/off > [ 44.508528] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth1: No phy led trigger registered for speed(2500) ... but we don't see link-up reported by the PCS after the PHY comes up. Why is that - I think that needs investigation before we proceed to patch the issue, because that suggests the PCS isn't seeing valid 2500base-X from the PHY. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
