[PATCH net v3] net: usb: ax88179_178a: improve link status logs

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

 



Avoid spurious link status logs that may ultimately be wrong; for example,
if the link is set to down with the cable plugged, then the cable is
unplugged and after this the link is set to up, the last new log that is
appearing is incorrectly telling that the link is up.

In order to avoid errors, show link status logs after link_reset
processing, and in order to avoid spurious as much as possible, only show
the link loss when some link status change is detected.

v3:
  - Add net as target tree in the subject.
  - Use constant string instead of variable because no other value is possible.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240618115054.101577-1-jtornosm@xxxxxxxxxx/
  - Fix the nits
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240617103405.654567-1-jtornosm@xxxxxxxxxx/
