💖 TQPHY(4) — Kernel Interfaces Manual, PHY bestie edition 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the TQPHY(4) page — yes, the Kernel Interfaces Manual one — and we’re about to make this tiny driver moment make sense. No cap, it’s short, but every crumb matters. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

tqphy — Driver for TDK Semiconductor 78Q2120 10/100 Ethernet PHYs 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

tqphy* at mii? phy ?

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The tqphy driver supports the TDK Semiconductor 78Q2120 PHY found in some CardBus and Mini-PCI Ethernet cards. That’s the whole vibe: specific PHY, specific little club of cards, and the driver is literally there for it. 🌸

🍓 SEE ALSO 🍓

Bestie, go read these when you’re done here:

💀 BUGS 💀

🚨 Real talk: due to hardware bugs, the tqphy driver refuses to match chips with revision 3 or lower. For these chips, use ukphy(4) instead. That’s the move. 💅

Mwah 💋 — this cutie came from the Debian manual, dated September 27, 2002, and filed under TQPHY(4). 🫶
