💅 BMTPHY(4) — the Mini-Theta PHY driver that understood the assignment 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to BMTPHY(4) from the Kernel Interfaces Manual — this is the page for the Broadcom BCM5201 and BCM5202 “Mini-Theta” Ethernet PHY driver and its lil derivatives. No cap, it’s giving niche-but-iconic network hardware energy. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

bmtphy — Driver for Broadcom BCM5201 and BCM5202 “Mini-Theta” Ethernet PHYs and their derivatives

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

fr fr, the synopsis is literally:

bmtphy* at mii? phy ?

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So the bmtphy driver supports the Broadcom BCM5201 and BCM5202 10/100 Ethernet PHYs and their derivatives such as BCM5214, BCM5221, BCM5222, and BCM4401. Slay. ✨

It also supports the internal PHY on the 3Com 3c905C 10/100 Ethernet interface — yes, that one — and the internal PHY on some 3Com 3c905B 10/100 Ethernet interfaces. Notice the “some,” bestie: not all of the 3c905B situations, just some. 👑
