From 5eb1967bfde372afb79bcbfa6bc10a93cc293df6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiner Kallweit Date: Fri, 1 Nov 2019 00:10:21 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] r8169: fix wrong PHY ID issue with RTL8168dp [ Upstream commit 62bdc8fd1c21d4263ebd18bec57f82532d09249f ] As reported in [0] at least one RTL8168dp version has problems establishing a link. This chip version has an integrated RTL8211b PHY, however the chip seems to report a wrong PHY ID, resulting in a wrong PHY driver (for Generic Realtek PHY) being loaded. Work around this issue by adding a hook to r8168dp_2_mdio_read() for returning the correct PHY ID.
