Now, all that said, there remain legitimate needs for enumerated
tunables. If I were to build a brussels version of the elxl driver,
for example, I'd like a tunable that let me select between MII, 10
Base-T, 10 Base-2, and AUI. This particular pattern I've seen before
though, and it may be common enough that it should be a standard
property.
In this particular case, I think there is a read side behaviour (which
physical
interface is active) and a write-site (select the physical connection)
that are
related but independant. I'm pretty sure that I've used NICs (SBUS?) that
had 2 or three of the above and did not require any manual selection. The
read-side behaviour is something that could be generic...
