Hi,
Now I am using I210 KX image (DEVID: 1537).
We want to use this MDIO do some configure since I210 is connect to a switch can be configured by MDIO. And seems it is disabled by default.
I've change the flash context as below based on Dev_Start_I210_Sgmii_NOMNG_8Mb_A2.hex v3.30, but MDIO still does not work, and ethtool cannot recognize right PHYADD.
flash | word 0x13 | word 0x24 |
Intel KX |
0x45: PHYAD: 2 | 0x0290 |
My KX |
0x43: PHYAD:1 |

Hi Carlos,
It is a design using the cited Intel Ethernet Controller.
A typo here, in fact I am using Dev_Start_I210_SerdesKX_NOMNG_8Mb_A2.hex v3.30. I download it from i210's spec's link. https://cdrdv2.intel.com/v1/dl/getContent/513655
and modified according to design as I list above.
I found reg 0x0020 works well by mmap.
But I cannot obtain right PHYAD through ethtool.
