Despite the subject, this is about an Atheros 8035 PHY :-)

Weird. The board schematics for the 1172 show Tango ETH0_MDINT# pin
properly connected to AR8035 INT pin (pin 20).

<Thinking out loud>

INT pin 20
I/O, D, PD
Interrupt Signal to System; default OD-gate, needs an external
10Kohm pull-up, active low; can be configured to I/O by register,
active high.


4.1.17 Interrupt Enable
Offset: 0x12
Mode: Read/Write
Hardware Reset: 0


Strange... it looks like AT803X_INER and AT803X_INTR_ENABLE refer to
the same "Interrupt Enable" register?

In fact, AT803X_INER_INIT == 0xec00 makes sense for register 0x12:
link success/fail, speed/duplex changed, autoneg error

Looks like at803x_config_intr() is used for 8031, but not for 8035...

Relevant commit:
77a9939426f7a "phy/at8031: enable at8031 to work on interrupt mode"

If I add .config_intr and .ack_interrupt to the 8035 struct, then I get
(also added some traces)

[    0.883517] *** at803x_config_intr: ENABLE

(Are all the ENABLE/DISABLE events expected?)

And if I unplug/replug the Ethernet cable,

Questions:

Can't at803x_ack_interrupt() just return phy_read(phydev, AT803X_INSR);
Can at803x_config_intr() be used with the 8035
What about AT803X_INER/AT803X_INTR_ENABLE and AT803X_INSR/AT803X_INTR_STATUS

Regards.
