That's a quick repost, but with the build issues and AI review, I think it's worth getting this version out there for review. It builds on the recent addition of phy_port representation to enable listing the front-facing ports of an interface. For now, we don't control these ports, we merely list their presence and their capabilities. As the most common use-case of multi-port interfaces is combo-ports that provide both RJ45 and SFP connectors on a single MAC, there's a lot of SFP stuff in this series. This series is in 2 main parts. The first one aims at representing the SFP cages and modules using phy_port, as combo-ports with RJ45 + SFP are by far the most common cases for multi-connector setups. The second part is the netlink interface to list those ports, now that most use-cases are covered. Let's see what we can do with some examples of the new ethtool API : - Get MII interfaces supported by an empty SFP cage : # ethtool --show-ports eth3 Port for eth3: Port id: 1 Occupied: no Supported MII interfaces : sgmii, 1000base-x, 2500base-x Port type: sfp - Get Combo-ports supported modes, on each port : # ethtool --show-ports eth0 Port for eth0: Port id: 1 Occupied: no Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full 10000baseT/Full 2500baseT/Full 5000baseT/Full Port type: mdi Port for eth0: Port id: 2 Occupied: no Supported MII interfaces : 10gbase-r Port type: sfp - Get Achievable linkmodes on a SFP module (combo port with a DAC in the SFP cage) # ethtool --show-ports eth1 Port for eth1: Port id: 1 Occupied: no Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full 10000baseT/Full 2500baseT/Full 5000baseT/Full Port type: mdi Port for eth1: Port id: 2 Occupied: yes Supported MII interfaces : 10gbase-r Port type: sfp Port for eth1: Port id: 3 Occupied: no Supported link modes: 10000baseCR/Full Port type: mdi Note that here, we have 3 ports : - The Copper port - The SFP Cage itself, marked as 'occupied' - The SFP module This series builds on top of phy_port and phy_link_topology to allow tracking the ports of an interface. We maintain a list of supported linkmodes/interfaces on each port, which allows for fine-grained reporting of each port's capability. What this series doesn't do : - We don't support selecting which port is active. This is the next step. - We only support PHY-driven combo ports. The end-goal of this whole journey that started with phy_link_topology is to get support for MII muxes, such as the one we have on the Turris Omnia. This will eventually be upstreamed as well. If you want to play around with it, here's [1] the patched ethtool that I've been using to produce the outputs above. Thanks !
