ENETC ports can manage the MDIO bus via local register interface. However there's also a centralized way to manage the MDIO bus, via the MDIO PCIe endpoint device integrated by the same root complex that also integrates the ENETC ports (eth controllers). Depending on board design and use case, centralized access to MDIO may be better than using local ENETC port registers. For instance, on the LS1028A QDS board where MDIO muxing is required. Also, the LS1028A on-chip switch doesn't have a local MDIO register interface. The current patch registers the above PCIe endpoint as a separate MDIO bus and provides a driver for it by re-using the code used for local MDIO access. It also allows the ENETC port PHYs to be managed by this driver if the local "mdio" node is missing from the ENETC port node.

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.
