From 528103383108f2b82c89450fdc86414e33b53ebe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Golle Date: Wed, 9 Oct 2024 00:23:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] generic: net: phy: use all SerDes MAC interface modes Instead of forcing 2.5G PHYs into rate-adapter mode which results higher energy consumption, lack of support for half-duplex modes and typically worse performance when linked at speeds less than 2.5G, use SGMII mode which allows the MAC to follow the PHY speed.
