Thanks for your patch, which is now commit 1838d6c62f578366 ("ravb:
Fixed to be able to unload modules") in v5.9-rc4 (backported to stable
v4.4, v4.9, v4.14, v4.19, v5.4, and v5.8).
This is causing a regression during resume from s2idle/s2ram on (at
least) Salvator-X(S) and Ebisu. Reverting that commit fixes this.
During boot, the Micrel PHY is detected correctly:
Micrel KSZ9031 Gigabit PHY e6800000.ethernet-ffffffff:00: attached
PHY driver [Micrel KSZ9031 Gigabit PHY]
(mii_bus:phy_addr=e6800000.ethernet-ffffffff:00, irq=228)
ravb e6800000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control off
During resume, if CONFIG_MODULES=n, it falls back to the Generic PHY
(case A):
Generic PHY e6800000.ethernet-ffffffff:00: attached PHY driver
[Generic PHY] (mii_bus:phy_addr=e6800000.ethernet-ffffffff:00,
irq=POLL)
ravb e6800000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control off
and Ethernet still works (degraded, due to polling).
During resume, if CONFIG_MODULES=y, MDIO initialization fails (case B):
mdio_bus e6800000.ethernet-ffffffff:00: error -16 loading PHY
driver module for ID 0x00221622
ravb e6800000.ethernet eth0: failed to initialize MDIO
PM: dpm_run_callback(): ravb_resume+0x0/0x1b8 returns -16
PM: Device e6800000.ethernet failed to resume: error -16
and Ethernet no longer works.
Case B happens because usermodehelper_disabled is set to UMH_DISABLED
during system suspend, causing request_module() to return -EBUSY.
Ignoring -EBUSY in phy_request_driver_module(), like was done for
-ENOENT in commit 21e194425abd65b5 ("net: phy: fix issue with loading
PHY driver w/o initramfs"), makes it fall back to the Generic PHY, cfr.
case A.
For case A, I haven't found out yet why it falls back to the Generic PHY.
Thanks for your comments!
