The phylink_expects_phy() function allows MAC drivers to check if they are expecting a PHY to attach. The checking condition in phylink_expects_phy() aims to achieve the same result as the checking condition in phylink_attach_phy(). However, the checking condition in phylink_expects_phy() uses pl->link_config.interface, while phylink_attach_phy() uses pl->link_interface. Initially, both pl->link_interface and pl->link_config.interface are set to SGMII, and pl->cfg_link_an_mode is set to MLO_AN_INBAND. When the interface switches from SGMII to 2500BASE-X, pl->link_config.interface is updated by phylink_major_config(). At this point, pl->cfg_link_an_mode remains MLO_AN_INBAND, and pl->link_config.interface is set to 2500BASE-X. Subsequently, when the STMMAC interface is taken down administratively and brought back up, it is blocked by phylink_expects_phy(). Since phylink_expects_phy() and phylink_attach_phy() aim to achieve the same result, phylink_expects_phy() should check pl->link_interface, which never changes, instead of pl->link_config.interface, which is updated by phylink_major_config().

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 reStructuredText 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.
