From 3c91b0c1de8d013490bbc41ce9ee8810ea5baddd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Egil Hjelmeland Date: Tue, 24 Oct 2017 17:14:10 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: lan9303: Do not disable switch fabric port 0 at .probe Make the LAN9303 work when lan9303_probe() is called twice. For some unknown reason the LAN9303 switch fail to forward data when switch fabric port 0 TX is disabled during probe. (Write of LAN9303_MAC_TX_CFG_0 in lan9303_disable_processing_port().) In that situation the switch fabric seem to receive frames, because the ALR is learning addresses. But no frames are transmitted on any of the ports. In our system lan9303_probe() is called twice, first time dsa_register_switch() return -EPROBE_DEFER. As an experiment, modified the code to skip writing LAN9303_MAC_TX_CFG_0, port 0 during the first probe. Then the switch works as expected. Resolve the problem by not calling lan9303_disable_processing_port() on port 0 during probe. Ports 1 and 2 are still disabled. Although unsatisfying that the exact failure mechanism is not known, the patch should not cause any harm. Signed-off-by: Egil Hjelmeland Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn Signed-off-by: David S.
