[PATCH v6 1/4] dt-bindings: net: ethernet-phy: add property enet-phy-pair-order

From: Damien Dejean <hidden>
Date: 2026-02-07 09:25:44
Also in: linux-devicetree, lkml
Subsystem: ethernet phy library, networking drivers, open firmware and flattened device tree bindings, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, Heiner Kallweit, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Rob Herring, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Conor Dooley, Linus Torvalds

Add property enet-phy-pair-order to the device tree bindings to define
the pair order of the PHY. To simplify PCB design some manufacturers
allow to wire the pairs in a reverse order, and change the order in
software.

The property can be set to 0 to force the normal pair order (ABCD), or 1
to force the reverse pair order (DCBA).
