💅 LAN8814_PAGE_PCS_DIGITAL 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this one's a tiny lil' page-select macro from the micrel PHY corner of the kernel, and honestly? she's iconic for how much she does with so little. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

LAN8814_PAGE_PCS_DIGITAL — the vibe is: Selects Extended Page 2. literally that's her whole job and she ate. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

LAN8814_PAGE_PCS_DIGITAL

no args, no stress, just the macro name and go. periodt. ✨

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this page seems dedicated to the Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) and other digital logic, which — ngl — is kind of the main character energy of the whole PHY situation. 🫶

in the LAN8814 she's the one pulling shifts for:

• MDI-X alignment — that's LAN8814_ALIGN_SWAP bestie, don't forget it 💖
• EEE state — aka LAN8814_EEE_STATE 🔥

and then in the LAN8842? she gets repurposed — same page, new side hustle — for statistics and self-test counters. lowkey a career pivot, highkey slay. 👑

note the "seems dedicated to" — that's the original being honest with u, not me guessing. we report, we don't invent. 🙈
