Re: [PATCH net-next v1] net: phy: tja11xx: add cable-test support

What would be the best place to do a test before the link is getting up?
Can it be done in the phy core, or it should be done in the PHY driver?

So far, no action except of logging these errors is needed. 

You could do it in the config_aneg callback.

A kernel log entry is not very easy to use. You might want to see how
easy it is to send a cable test result to userspace. Anything which is
interested in this information can then listen for it. All the needed
code is there, you will just need to rearrange it a bit.
