CONFIG_USE_MDIO: Use MDIO for PHY configuration

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_USE_MDIO has multiple definitions:

Use MDIO for PHY configuration found in arch/ppc/8xx_io/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_USE_MDIO:

• prompt: Use MDIO for PHY configuration
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_FEC_ENET
• defined in arch/ppc/8xx_io/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 2.5.45–2.5.75, 2.6.0–2.6.26

Help text

On some boards the hardware configuration of the ethernet PHY can be used without any software interaction over the MDIO interface, so all MII code can be omitted. Say N here if unsure or if you don't need link status reports.
