Hi, In the previous version of the w5100 driver, the LINKLED pin could be wired to a GPIO to detect the link status changes via an interrupt. This only works on w5500 as it is the only one documenting its LINKLED pin to hold the link status (on w5100 the LINKLED pin is changing with RX/TX activity). This series of patches is bringing back the link status detection on w5500 using the Link Status bit of the PHY Configuration Register. Additionally, the LINKLED pin can also be wired to detect link status changes and read the register in the interrupt handler.
