====================
ethtool: introduce PHY MSE diagnostics UAPI and drivers
This series introduces a generic kernel-userspace API for retrieving PHY
Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics, together with netlink integration,
a fast-path reporting hook in LINKSTATE_GET, and initial driver
implementations for the KSZ9477 and DP83TD510E PHYs.
MSE is defined by the OPEN Alliance "Advanced diagnostic features for
100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification [1] as a measure of
slicer error rate, typically used internally to derive the Signal
Quality Indicator (SQI). While SQI is useful as a normalized quality
index, it hides raw measurement data, varies in scaling and thresholds
between vendors, and may not indicate certain failure modes - for
example, cases where autonegotiation would fail even though SQI reports
a good link. In practice, such scenarios can only be investigated in
fixed-link mode; here, MSE can provide an empirically estimated value
indicating conditions under which autonegotiation would not succeed.
Example output with current implementation:
root@DistroKit:~ ethtool lan1
Settings for lan1:
...
Speed: 1000Mb/s
Duplex: Full
...
Link detected: yes
SQI: 5/7
MSE: 3/127 (channel: worst)

MSE diagnostics for lan1:
MSE Configuration:

Supported capabilities: average channel-a channel-b channel-c
channel-d worst
