[PATCH 3/4] net: phy: realtek: add disable RX delay hack for RTL8211E

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




From: Icenowy Zheng <icenowy@xxxxxxxx>

Some RTL8211E chips have broken GbE function, which needs a hack to
fix. It's said that this fix will affect the performance on not-buggy
PHYs, so it should only be enabled on boards with the broken PHY.
Currently only some Pine64+ boards are known to have this issue.

This hack is said to disable RX relay for RTL8211E according to Realtek.

Enable this hack when a certain device tree property is set.

As this hack is not documented on the datasheet at all, it contains
magic numbers, and could not be revealed. These magic numbers are
received from Realtek via Pine64.
