Hi Russell,

Indeed. RGMII MAC behaves same way, although it shouldn't be named as 'in-
band' to be on par with the specifications. Anyway - this one is rather a stub for
being able to work with ACPI, so once the MDIO bus works there, this will be
out of any concerns.
Hi Marcin,

This is correct.
"in-band" supported only for SGMII mode.
IRQ link interrupt depend on "in-band"' auto negation only if "in-band"' enabled.
But IRQ link interrupt could be triggered with "in-band", "out-band" or with specific fixed speed/duplex/flow_contol.
Hi Stefan,

How does this work in RGMII mode - is this handled by the PP2 polling
the PHY to get the speed, duplex and flow control settings?

Thanks.
