Hi,
it would take some till I get 6.1 ready here - sorry.
But I've a look at our runnning systems.
It looks like that the interface now works.
I've seen it running in some of our 5.1.2 Installations.
In 4.x it looks still broken - at least all systems with that release do
not use this interface.
My 5.1.2 version includes updates from current for if_wm.c and some phy,
so I cannot say if it is fixed in the release itself.
Because I've done no own changes to the phy-implementations - just
updates from current with sometime backporting due to kernelchanges -
there is a working version of makphy for this board in current available.
If you want a commitment that it works in 6.1. release, you have to wait
some time.
At the moment if_wm.c and all phy-implementation is from 6.1-release in
my 6.1 version. (That my change, if the ipsec processing related
MP-locking problem has not been solved in 6.1 - a different aproach as
mine has been integrated there ...)
Otherwise I think you can close this old PR.
best regards
W. Stukenbrock
