Comparing the ethtool output from phylink and non-phylink fixed-link setups shows that we have some differences: - The "auto-negotiation" fields are different; phylink reports these as "No", non-phylink reports these as "Yes" for the supported and advertising masks. - The link partner advertisement is set to the link speed with non- phylink, but phylink leaves this unset, causing all link partner fields to be omitted. The phylink ethtool output also disagrees with the software emulated PHY dump via the MII registers. Update the phylink fixed-link parsing code so that we better reflect the behaviour of the non-phylink code that this facility replaces, and bring the ethtool interface more into line with the report from via the MII interface.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
