Greetings!!

IBM CI has reported build failure of 20260122 on IBM Power server.


Error:


ERROR: modpost: "phy_get_rx_polarity" [drivers/net/phy/ 
air_en8811h.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "phy_get_tx_polarity" [drivers/net/phy/ 
air_en8811h.ko] undefined!
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:147: Module.symvers] Error 1
make[1]: *** [/home/upstreamci/linux/Makefile:2040: modpost] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:248: __sub-make] Error 2

Thanks for the config file.

The probleme is because allthough CONFIG_PHY_COMMON_PROPS is selected, 
drivers/phy/phy-common-props.o is not built because CONFIG_GENERIC_PHY 
is not selected.

Likely comes from commit 66d8a334b57e ("net: phy: air_en8811h: deprecate 
"airoha,pnswap-rx" and "airoha,pnswap-tx"")

I don't think that bisection helps very much.

Can you post the kernel config file?

Attached is the .config file.
