* net: pse-pd: Add support for PSE PIsKory Maincent (Dent Project)2024-04-192-0/+302
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Power Sourcing Equipment Power Interface (PSE PI) plays a pivotal role in the architecture of Power over Ethernet (PoE) systems. It is essentially a blueprint that outlines how one or multiple power sources are connected to the eight-pin modular jack, commonly known as the Ethernet RJ45 port. This connection scheme is crucial for enabling the delivery of power alongside data over Ethernet cables. This patch adds support for getting the PSE controller node through PSE PI device subnode. This supports adds a way to get the PSE PI id from the pse_pi devicetree subnode of a PSE controller node simply by reading the reg property.

* ethtool: Expand Ethernet Power Equipment with c33 (PoE) alongside PoDLKory Maincent (Dent Project)2024-04-192-0/+82
In the current PSE interface for Ethernet Power Equipment, support is limited to PoDL. This patch extends the interface to accommodate the objects specified in IEEE 802.3-2022 145.2 for Power sourcing Equipment (PSE). The following objects are now supported and considered mandatory: - IEEE 802.3-2022 30.9.1.1.5 aPSEPowerDetectionStatus - IEEE 802.3-2022 30.9.1.1.2 aPSEAdminState - IEEE 802.3-2022 30.9.1.2.1 aPSEAdminControl To avoid confusion between "PoDL PSE" and "PoE PSE", which have similar names but distinct values, we have followed the suggestion of Oleksij Rempel and Andrew Lunn to maintain separate naming schemes for each, using c33 (clause 33) prefix for "PoE PSE".
