RE: the confusing 10000base_CR. Shouldn't it be 10000_SFI_DA?

Sorry Andrew, carry-forwarded IEEE's PMD naming convention of separating media "-CR" :D. Will stick to Ethtool :).
I was referring to "ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_10000baseCR_FULL_Full_BIT" and its associated documentations Andrew.

- Thank you,

Hi Linux Ethernet Team,

We explored Ethtool's "10000base_CR" PMD PHY type and we think it 
might be just a wrong name.
~/linux$ grep -r 10000Base_CR
~/linux$ 

~/ethtool$ grep -r 10000Base_CR
~/ethtool$ 

What exactly do you mean by 10000Base_CR?
