Use the legacy flag to indicate whether we should operate in legacy mode. This allows us to stop using the presence of a PCS as an indicator to the age of the phylink user, and make PCS presence optional. Legacy mode involves: 1) calling mac_config() whenever the link comes up 2) calling mac_config() whenever the inband advertisement changes, possibly followed by a call to mac_an_restart() 3) making use of mac_an_restart() 4) making use of mac_pcs_get_state() All the above functionality was moved to a seperate "PCS" block of operations in March 2020. Update the documents to indicate that the differences that this flag makes. Signed-off-by: Russell King (Oracle) <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> |
