Nope, the driver was only added five patches ago, and it only offers the timestamping stuff. The standard PHY functions just call the generic functions, so the PHY works fine even without this driver. > > +static struct ptp_clock *dp83640_clock; > > +DEFINE_SPINLOCK(clock_lock); /* protects the one and only dp83640_clock */ > > Why only one? Is it not possible to have 2 of these PHYs in a system? Yes, you can have multiple PHYs, but only one PTP clock. If you do use multiple PHYs, then you must wire their clocks together and adjust the PTP clock on only one of the PHYs.
