Maybe this patch could be useful. phy_device.c treats PHY ID == 0x0 as bogus IDs, and that results in gianfar driver failure to see the TBI PHYs. This code snippet triggers: if (!priv->tbiphy) { printk(KERN_WARNING "SGMII mode requires that the device " "tree specify a tbi-handle\n"); return; } Although tbi-handle is specified in the device tree. Btw, technically PHY ID == 0x0 is a valid ID (if we ever see a PHY manufactured by Xerox :-). Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov Acked-by: Andy Fleming Signed-off-by: David S.
