Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: dsa: microchip: ksz9477: follow errata sheet when applying fixups

The errata sheets for both ksz9477 and ksz9567 begin with

IMPORTANT NOTE

Multiple errata workarounds in this document call for changing PHY
registers for each PHY port. PHY registers 0x0 to 0x1F are in the
address range 0xN100 to 0xN13F, while indirect (MMD) PHY registers
are accessed via the PHY MMD Setup Register and the PHY MMD Data
Register.

Before configuring the PHY MMD registers, it is necessary to set the
PHY to 100 Mbps speed with auto-negotiation disabled by writing to
register 0xN100-0xN101. After writing the MMD registers, and after
all errata workarounds that involve PHY register settings, write
register 0xN100-0xN101 again to enable and restart auto-negotiation.

Without that explicit auto-neg restart, we do sometimes have problems
establishing link.

Rather than writing back the hardcoded 0x1340 value the errata sheet
suggests (which likely just corresponds to the most common strap
configuration), restore the original value, setting the
PORT_AUTO_NEG_RESTART bit if PORT_AUTO_NEG_ENABLE is set.

While I do believe this is a fix, I don't think it's post-rc7
material, hence targeting net-next with cc stable.

For this fix, these are fine.

Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn <[email protected]>

Looking at the values of PORT_SPEED_100MBIT and PORT_FULL_DUPLEX, they
are identical to BMCR_SPEED100 and BMCR_FULLDPLX. In fact, it looks
like for 9477 this is a standard BMCR. Please could you add a follow
up patch which replaces these #defines with the standard ones in
include/uapi/linux/mii.h. The code is then more understandable by
people who know the standard defines.

Thanks
Andrew

I don't think this will apply to net-next as the relevant code has been
moved to the Micrel PHY driver and removed from this one in the
following commits, and effectively the same change to disable autoneg
before the register writes and re-enable afterwards was incorporated:

However, your patch may be reasonable to apply to -rc7 or stable as a
more targeted change for those releases.

Hi Rasmus,

unfortunately this does not seem to apply to net-next.
Please consider rebasing and reposting.
Please include Andrew's Reviewed-by tag unless there
are substantial changes (seems unlikely).

Ah, sorry about that. This code hadn't been touched in a very long time,
so I didn't actually think to check -next.

and effectively the same change to disable autoneg
> before the register writes and re-enable afterwards was incorporated:

Yes, except it seems to always enable autoneg, even if the phy was
strapped otherwise. That's not a problem for our use case.

Well, yes, it could be backported, but then there'd be a (simple)
conflict when net-next is to be merged in the next window. So I don't
think it's worth it.

Unless the net maintainers decide otherwise, please just drop this patch.
