* mdio-tools: update to 1.3.1Robert Marko2023-12-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update the mdio-netlink kmod and userspace mdio-tools to version 1.3.1. [v1.3.1] - 2023-12-02 --------------------- Fixes mvls to work with kernels 6.2 and onwards. - mdio: Multiple registers can now be dumped at once, via the generic dump operation. - mvls: Relax the driver matching to accept the strings used in kernels 6.2 and newer.

* mdio-tools: update to 1.3.0Zhi-Jun You2023-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update the mdio-netlink kmod and userspace mdio-tools to version 1.3.0. [v1.3.0] - 2023-07-24 --------------------- Primarily widen the gamut of supported kernel versions, now supporting all kernels from 5.2 and onwards. - mvls: Support for 88E6320/88E6321 - mdio-netlink: Adapt to the upstream C22/C45 refactor.

* mdio-tools: update to 1.2.0Robert Marko2022-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update the mdio-netlink kmod and userspace mdio-tools to version 1.2.0. This allows dropping the time64 musl patch which was upstreamed. [v1.2.0] - 2022-09-15 --------------------- - mdio: A new addressing mode "mmd-c22": Used to access MMDs attached to MDIO controllers without Clause 45 support by using registers 13 and 14 in the device's Clause 22 register space - mdio: Pretty print gigabit link capability information from a PHY's extended status register - mdio: Pretty print lots of status information from MMDs (C45 PHYs) - mvls: Decode priority override information of ATU entries - mvls: Table listings now always prints out the device information, even on single chip systems.

* mdio-tools: update to 1.1.1Robert Marko2022-06-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update the mdio-netlink kmod and userspace mdio-tools to version 1.1.1. mdio-tools required a musl time64 compatibility fix that I have an PR open for already. Changelog: [v1.1.1] - 2022-05-23 --------------------- Tiny bugfix release. - mdio: The bench operation is now much more reliable when stacked on other devices than regular PHYs (e.g. paged PHYs or Marvell switches). - mvls: The STU can now be dumped chips from the Peridot generation. [v1.1.0] - 2022-05-04 --------------------- A sprawling release, adding various mvls related introspection features. mvls also gains a JSON output format. - mvls: The STU can now be dumped (requires Linux 5.17 or later). This is useful now that mv88e6xxx supports offloading of MST states - mvls: Output can now be formatted as JSON for easier scripting - mdio: mvls: A subset of MIB counters can now be dumped. This let's you get at counters for DSA ports, which are not reachable from ethtool - mdio: mvls: The LAG mask and LAG map tables can now be dumped - mdio: Improve usage message by including the examples from the manual Signed-off-by: Robert Marko <robert.marko@sartura.hr>
* mdio-tools: update to version 1.0.1Robert Marko2022-01-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Version 1.0.1 brought the following changes: [v1.0.1] - 2021-11-26 Primarily fixes a few issues in the kernel module that were found during a quick review from Russell King: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/YYPThd7aX+TBWslz@shell.armlinux.org.uk/ https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/YYPU1gOvUPa00JWg@shell.armlinux.org.uk/ - mdio: The mvls subcommand now supports flushing the ATU - mdio-netlink: Plug some glaring holes around integer overflows of the PC. - mdio-netlink: Release reference to MDIO bus after a transaction completes. So, update to the latest version and switch the kernel module back to fetching tarballs like the userspace tool does. Signed-off-by: Robert Marko <robimarko@gmail.com>

* mdio-tools: Add package plus kernel moduleDamien Mascord2021-07-15
mdio is a low-level Linux debug tool for communicating with devices attached an MDIO bus. It improves on existing tools in this space in a few important ways: MDIO buses are directly addressable. Previous solutions relied on at least one Ethernet PHY on the bus being attached to a net device, which is typically not the case when the device is an Ethernet switch for example. Complex operations can be performed atomically. The old API only supported a single read or write of a single register. mdio sends byte code to the mdio-netlink kernel module that can perform multiple operations, store intermediate values, loop etc. As a result, things like read/mask/write operations and accesses to paged PHYs can be performed safely.
