Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 3/3] dt-bindings: ethernet-phy: add optional mii-lite-mode flag
Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2025 17:10:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250623151048.2391730-4-kamilh@axis.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250623151048.2391730-1-kamilh@axis.com>

From: Kamil Horák (2N) <kamilh@axis.com>

The Broadcom bcm54810 and bcm54811 PHYs support MII and MII-Lite
interface modes. The MII-Lite mode does not use TXR, RXER, CRS and COL
signals. However, the hardware strapping only selects MII mode,
distinction between MII and MII-Lite must be done by software.

Add optional mii-lite-mode flag to switch the PHY to MII-Lite mode.
