net: phy: air_en8811h: add AN8811HB MCU assert/deassert support

2026-05-27T00:59:47+00:00

AN8811HB needs a MCU soft-reset cycle before firmware loading begins. Assert the MCU (hold it in reset) and immediately deassert (release) via a dedicated PBUS register pair (0x5cf9f8 / 0x5cf9fc), accessed through a registered mdio_device at PHY-addr+8. Add __air_pbus_reg_write() as a low-level helper taking a struct mdio_device *, create and register the PBUS mdio_device in an8811hb_probe() and store it in priv->pbusdev, then implement an8811hb_mcu_assert() / _deassert() on top of it. Add an8811hb_remove() to unregister the PBUS device on teardown. Wire both calls into an8811hb_load_firmware() and en8811h_restart_mcu() so every firmware load or MCU restart on AN8811HB correctly sequences the reset control registers.

net: phy: honor eee_disabled_modes in phy_advertise_eee_all()

2026-05-20T01:45:26+00:00

phy_advertise_eee_all() copies supported_eee into advertising_eee unconditionally, overwriting any filtering applied during phy_probe() based on DT eee-broken-* properties or driver-populated eee_disabled_modes. genphy_c45_ethtool_set_eee() calls this helper when user space passes an empty advertisement, undoing the filtering. Apply the same eee_disabled_modes mask in phy_advertise_eee_all() so the filtering survives the copy, matching the pattern in phy_probe() and phy_support_eee().

net: phy: honor eee_disabled_modes in phy_support_eee()

2026-05-20T01:45:26+00:00

phy_support_eee() copies supported_eee into advertising_eee unconditionally, overwriting any filtering applied during phy_probe() based on DT eee-broken-* properties or driver-populated eee_disabled_modes. MAC drivers that call phy_support_eee() after probe (e.g. bcmgenet, fec, lan743x, lan78xx, r8169) then cause the PHY to advertise EEE for modes the user marked as broken. The symptom is that ethtool --show-eee on the local interface reports "not supported" (supported & ~eee_disabled_modes is empty) while the link partner sees EEE negotiated and active. phy_probe() already filters advertising_eee via eee_disabled_modes after calling of_set_phy_eee_broken(). Apply the same mask in phy_support_eee() so the filtering survives the copy.

net: phy: skip EEE advertisement write when autoneg is disabled

2026-05-20T01:45:16+00:00

genphy_c45_an_config_eee_aneg() writes the EEE advertisement to the auto-negotiation device's MMD register space (MDIO_MMD_AN, register MDIO_AN_EEE_ADV). These registers are read by the link partner only during auto-negotiation, so writing them while autoneg is disabled cannot influence the link. On some PHYs (e.g. Broadcom BCM54213PE) the write nevertheless reaches the chip and disturbs the receive datapath. Concretely, running ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg off ethtool --set-eee eth0 eee off leaves eth0 with TX working and RX completely silent on a Raspberry Pi 4 / CM4 board (bcmgenet + BCM54213PE in rgmii-rxid). Switching back to autoneg recovers the link. Prior to commit f26a29a038ee ("net: phy: ensure that genphy_c45_an_config_eee_aneg() sees new value of phydev->eee_cfg.eee_enabled"), the disable path was effectively a no-op because the helper read the stale eee_cfg.eee_enabled, so the underlying PHY behavior never surfaced. Bisected on rpi-6.12.y between commits 83943264 (good) and effcbc88 (bad) to f26a29a038ee.

net: phy: micrel: fix LAN8814 QSGMII soft reset

2026-04-30T23:49:23+00:00

LAN8814 QSGMII soft reset was moved into the probe function to avoid triggering it for each of 4 PHY-s in the package. However, that broke QSGMII link between the MAC and PHY on most LAN8814 PHY-s, specificaly for us on the Microchip LAN969x switch. Reading the QSGMII status registers it was visible that lanes were only partially synced. It looks like the reset timing is crucial, so lets move the reset back into the .config_init function but guard it with phy_package_init_once() to avoid it being triggered on each of 4 PHY-s in the package. Change the probe function to use phy_package_probe_once() for coma and PtP setup.
