Hi
very good...do not need the manual autoneg with the last Patch :)

ok, this seems now correctly set.

so you can see the link-up comes directly after the interface up
does the ethtool-output look like expected? i see speed/duplex is set as supported/advertised but not active
Supported link modes: 2500baseT/Full
Advertised link modes: 2500baseT/Full
vs.
Speed: Unknown!
Duplex: Unknown! (255)
maybe because of the
@@ -3003,7 +3007,8 @@ static int phylink_sfp_config_optical(struct phylink *pl)
config.speed = SPEED_UNKNOWN;
config.duplex = DUPLEX_UNKNOWN;
config.pause = MLO_PAUSE_AN;
imho ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_2500baseT_Full_BIT sets only the supported which intersected with the advertised from the other side maximum should be taken as actual mode...so this part seems not correctly working at the moment.
the "Supported ports: [ FIBRE ]" is also misleading for copper sfp, but imho all SFP are shown like this.

next step:
is it possible to have pause for rate adaption (handling rx pause frames correctly)?
