Ok I think I have cracked this one. I am pretty sure you are
right that the USB comes to us in a strange state and needs
a full reset, but that only needs to happen once when the driver
is bound in. So there is some code in ax88772_bind that appears
to try to reset the device but does a lot less than ax88772_reset
and I think that must be the problem. Applying the following on
top of the patch we have been debating I think will make
everything work for all of us:
--- a/drivers/net/usb/asix_devices.c
+++ b/drivers/net/usb/asix_devices.c
@@ -465,19 +465,7 @@ static int ax88772_bind(struct usbnet *dev,
struct usb_interface *in
return ret;
}
- ret = asix_sw_reset(dev, AX_SWRESET_IPPD | AX_SWRESET_PRL);
- if (ret < 0)
- return ret;
-
- msleep(150);
-
- ret = asix_sw_reset(dev, AX_SWRESET_CLEAR);
- if (ret < 0)
- return ret;
-
- msleep(150);
-
- ret = asix_sw_reset(dev, embd_phy ? AX_SWRESET_IPRL : AX_SWRESET_PRTE);
+ ax88772_reset(dev);
If you guys could test that and let me know how you get on I will
send in a proper patch if it looks good.
Thanks,
Charles
