net: bcmgenet: fix broken EEE by converting to phylib-managed state

2026-03-19T15:14:57Z

[ Upstream commit 908c344d5cfac4160f49715da9efacdf5b6a28bd ] The bcmgenet EEE implementation is broken in several ways. phy_support_eee() is never called, so the PHY never advertises EEE and phylib never sets phydev->enable_tx_lpi. bcmgenet_mac_config() checks priv->eee.eee_enabled to decide whether to enable the MAC LPI logic, but that field is never initialised to true, so the MAC never enters Low Power Idle even when EEE is negotiated - wasting the power savings EEE is designed to provide. The only way to get EEE working at all is a manual 'ethtool --set-eee eth0 eee on' after every link-up, and even then bcmgenet_get_eee() immediately clobbers the reported state because phy_ethtool_get_eee() overwrites eee_enabled and tx_lpi_enabled with the uninitialised PHY eee_cfg values. Finally, bcmgenet_mac_config() is only called on link-up, so EEE is never disabled in hardware on link-down. Fix all of this by removing the MAC-side EEE state tracking (priv->eee) and aligning with the pattern used by other non-phylink MAC drivers such as FEC. Call phy_support_eee() in bcmgenet_mii_probe() so the PHY advertises EEE link modes and phylib tracks negotiation state. Move the EEE hardware control to bcmgenet_mii_setup(), which is called on every link event, and drive it directly from phydev->enable_tx_lpi - the flag phylib sets when EEE is negotiated and the user has not disabled it. This enables EEE automatically once the link partner agrees and disables it cleanly on link-down. Make bcmgenet_get_eee() and bcmgenet_set_eee() pure passthroughs to phy_ethtool_get_eee() and phy_ethtool_set_eee(), with the MAC hardware register read/written for tx_lpi_timer. Drop struct ethtool_keee eee from struct bcmgenet_priv.

net: bcmgenet: revise suspend/resume

2025-03-08T03:33:48Z

If the network interface is configured for Wake-on-LAN we should avoid bringing the interface down and up since it slows the time to reestablish network traffic on resume. Redundant calls to phy_suspend() and phy_resume() are removed since they are already invoked from within phy_stop() and phy_start() called from bcmgenet_netif_stop() and bcmgenet_netif_start().

2025-03-08T03:33:48Z

It is possible for a WoL power up to fail due to the GENET being reset while in the suspend state. Allow these failures to be returned as error codes to allow different recovery behavior when necessary.

net: bcmgenet: move bcmgenet_power_up into resume_noirq

2025-03-08T03:33:48Z

The bcmgenet_power_up() function is moved from the resume method to the resume_noirq method for symmetry with the suspend_noirq method. This allows the wol_active flag to be removed. The UMAC_IRQ_WAKE_EVENT interrupts that can be unmasked by the bcmgenet_wol_power_down_cfg() function are now re-masked by the bcmgenet_wol_power_up_cfg() function at the resume_noirq level as well.

net: bcmgenet: move DESC_INDEX flow to ring 0

2025-03-08T03:33:47Z

The default transmit and receive packet handling is moved from the DESC_INDEX (i.e. 16) descriptor rings to the Ring 0 queues. This saves a fair amount of special case code by unifying the handling. A default dummy filter is enabled in the Hardware Filter Block to route default receive packets to Ring 0.
