[PATCH net-next v4 0/8] r8152: refactor and extend RTL8157/8159 support

From: Chih Kai Hsu

Date: Thu Sep 17 2026 - 03:07:43 EST


RTL8157 and RTL8159 have different init, enable, up/down, hw_phy_cfg,
and PHY access sequences from RTL8156. This series splits the shared
callbacks into per-chip variants and adds the missing RTL8157/8159
functionality: dedicated unload and change_mtu callbacks, TGPHY register
access via phy_read/phy_write pointers in struct rtl_ops, flow control
patch support through rtl_fc_pause_pkt_en(), and UPS support via
r8157_ups_en().

v4:
- Patch #1: make wait_autoload_done() bail out immediately on
RTL8152_INACCESSIBLE instead of waiting out the full 10 second
timeout.
- Patch #6: propagate PHY access failures instead of ignoring them.
ocp_reg_read()/ocp_reg_write() and every helper built on top of them
(sram_read/write, sram2_read/write, the ocp_reg_*_bits and MDIO bit
helpers) now return int and stop silently operating on stale data
when a TGPHY access times out.

v3:
Rebase on top of latest net-next to resolve merge conflicts.

v2:
- For patch #1, use read_poll_timeout() to replace the manual
for-loop polling.
- For patch #2 and #3, rewrite the commit message.
