Hi Andre
We call it phylib, not PAL.

The PHY driver should do this, not the MAC driver.
Which PHY driver is used for the internal PHY? In theory, you should
not need to know if it is internal or external, it is just a PHY. That
might mean you need to move some code from this driver into the PHY
driver, if it is currently missing in the PHY driver.

Again, they PHY driver should take care of this. You need to set
phydev->mdix_ctrl before starting the PHY. The PHY driver should set
phdev->mdix to the current status.

So the MAC does not care about the speed? The pause configuration?
Duplex?
