[PATCH v3 0/3] Add support for SQI and master-slave

From: Oleksij Rempel
Date: Tue Jun 09 2020 - 04:47:51 EST


This patch set is extending ethtool to make it more usable on automotive
PHYs like NXP TJA11XX.

They make use of new KAPI (currently in net-next, will go probably to the
kernel 5.8-rc1):
- PHY master-slave role configuration and status informaton. Mostly needed
for 100Base-T1 PHYs due the lack of autonegatiation support.
- Signal Quality Index to investigate cable related issues.

changes v3:
- rename "Port mode" to "master-slave"
- use [preferred|forced]-[master|slave] for information and
configuration

changes v2:
- add master-slave information to the "ethtool --help" and man page
- move KAPI update changes to the separate patch.

Oleksij Rempel (3):
update UAPI header copies
netlink: add master/slave configuration support
netlink: add LINKSTATE SQI support
