QCLINUX: prune.config: Enable the TI DP83867 PHY driver

[Mohd Ayaan Anwar (ayaan-anwar)]

The Shikra EVK boards have an RGMII TI PHY connected to the dual EMACs of the SoC. Remove its config from prune.config to enable its driver.

Final Summary

1. Lore link present: No — QCLINUX: prefix; no lore link expected or required
2. Lore link matches PR commits: N/A — no lore link to compare against
3. Upstream patch status: N/A — vendor-only change, not posted upstream
4. PR present in qcom-next: Not checked — QCLINUX: vendor-only commit

Additional Notes:

• The change removes a prune.config entry to enable the TI DP83867 PHY driver (CONFIG_DP83867_PHY)
• Rationale is hardware-specific: Shikra EVK boards use RGMII TI PHY connected to dual EMACs
• prune.config is a Qualcomm-specific kernel configuration fragment used to disable unnecessary drivers
• Removing the disable line allows the driver to be built when prune.config is applied
• Commit message follows kernel style and provides sufficient context
• No issues detected with authorship, sign-off, or diff integrity

❌ check-patch-compliance

Root cause: Commit subject "QCLINUX: prune.config: Enable the TI DP83867 PHY driver" does not start with a required prefix for patch compliance.

Failure details:

2026-06-24T13:10:01.6285941Z Checking commit: QCLINUX: prune.config: Enable the TI DP83867 PHY driver
2026-06-24T13:10:01.6302487Z Commit summary does not start with a required prefix
2026-06-24T13:10:01.6317791Z ##[error]Process completed with exit code 1.

Fix: The check-patch-compliance checker enforces that commit subjects must start with one of the following prefixes:

• UPSTREAM: - for commits already merged in mainline Linux
• FROMLIST: - for commits posted to upstream mailing lists but not yet merged
• BACKPORT: - for commits backported from another kernel version
• FROMGIT: - for commits cherry-picked from another git tree

Since this is a Qualcomm-specific configuration change (enabling a driver in prune.config), and it's not from upstream, the commit subject should be changed to remove the QCLINUX: prefix and use a standard kernel subsystem prefix instead. However, if this is truly a downstream-only change, you have two options:

1. Option 1 (Recommended): Use a proper subsystem prefix without QCLINUX:

   arm64: configs: prune: Enable the TI DP83867 PHY driver
   

2. Option 2: If the checker allows downstream tags, check if there's an exemption mechanism for internal-only commits, or update the checker configuration to allow QCLINUX: prefix.

Reproduce locally:

cd /path/to/kernel
git fetch origin
bash /path/to/kernel-checkers/check-patch-compliance.sh \
--kernel-src . \
--base 0c79596f52a5d047657e625aef7ed5a5beb90b4c \
--head 49c205d7e253038297a5b36b17eaf19b5c8e8cf7

Verdict

1 blocker to fix: The commit subject must be updated to use a compliant prefix. Change from QCLINUX: prune.config: Enable the TI DP83867 PHY driver to arm64: configs: prune: Enable the TI DP83867 PHY driver (or use an appropriate UPSTREAM:/FROMLIST:/BACKPORT: prefix if applicable).
