commite96bd2d3b1upstream. commit93c0970493("net: phy: consider latched link-down status in polling mode") removed double-read of latched link-state register for polling mode from genphy_update_link(). This added extra ~1s delay into sequence link down->up. Following scenario: - After boot link goes up - phy_start() is called triggering an aneg restart, hence link goes down and link-down info is latched. - After aneg has finished link goes up. In phy_state_machine is checked link state but it is latched "link is down". The state machine is scheduled after one second and there is detected "link is up". This extra delay can be avoided when we keep link-state register double read in case when link was down previously. With this solution we don't miss a link-down event in polling mode and link-up is faster. Details about this quirky behavior on Realtek phy: Without patch: T0: aneg is started, link goes down, link-down status is latched T0+3s: state machine runs, up-to-date link-down is read T0+4s: state machine runs, aneg is finished (BMSR_ANEGCOMPLETE==1), here i read link-down (BMSR_LSTATUS==0), T0+5s: state machine runs, aneg is finished (BMSR_ANEGCOMPLETE==1), up-to-date link-up is read (BMSR_LSTATUS==1), phydev->link goes up, state change PHY_NOLINK to PHY_RUNNING With patch: T0: aneg is started, link goes down, link-down status is latched T0+3s: state machine runs, up-to-date link-down is read T0+4s: state machine runs, aneg is finished (BMSR_ANEGCOMPLETE==1), first BMSR read: BMSR_ANEGCOMPLETE==1 and BMSR_LSTATUS==0, second BMSR read: BMSR_ANEGCOMPLETE==1 and BMSR_LSTATUS==1, phydev->link goes up, state change PHY_NOLINK to PHY_RUNNING Signed-off-by: Petr Oros <poros@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
