The qca8081 1G chip version does not support 2.5 capability, which
is distinguished from qca8081 2.5G chip according to the bit0 of
register mmd7.0x901d.

The fast retrain and master slave seed configs are only needed when
the 2.5G capability is supported.

Does genphy_c45_pma_read_abilities() work on these devices?

Andrew

Hi Andrew,
yes, genphy_c45_pma_read_abilities works on both normal qca8081 2.5G chip
and qca8081 1G version chip, even the PHY ID is same, the only difference
between qca8081 1G and 2.5G chip is the 2.5G capability removed on 1G
version chip.

Great, then please use it to simply the driver.

Andrew
Hi Andrew,
Per double check qca8081 PHY registers, the PHY ID only exists in the MII register, which is not in the MMD device register.

There are MMD device 1, 3, 7 in qca8081 PHY, the PMA abilities 10/100/1000/2500 are compliant with genphy_c45_pma_read_abilities, but the MDIO_AN_STAT1_ABLE does not exist in MMD7.1 register.

so the genphy_c45_pma_read_abilities can't be fully supported by qca8081 phy, sorry for this misunderstanding.
