[ Upstream commit 2a83fba6cae89dd9c0625e68ff8ffff791c67ac0 ]
This patch reverts two previous applied patches to fix an issue that appeared when using SGMII based SFP modules. In the current state the driver will try to reset the PHY before obtaining the phy_addr of the SGMII attached PHY. That leads to an error in e1000_write_phy_reg_sgmii_82575. Causing the initialization to fail:
igb: Intel(R) Gigabit Ethernet Network Driver - version 5.4.0-k igb: Copyright (c) 2007-2014 Intel Corporation. igb: probe of ????:??:??.? failed with error -3
The patches being reverted are:
commit 182785335447957409282ca745aa5bc3968facee Author: Aaron Sierra asierra@xes-inc.com Date: Tue Nov 29 10:03:56 2016 -0600
igb: reset the PHY before reading the PHY ID
commit 440aeca4b9858248d8f16d724d9fa87a4f65fa33 Author: Matwey V Kornilov matwey@sai.msu.ru Date: Thu Nov 24 13:32:48 2016 +0300
igb: Explicitly select page 0 at initialization
The first reverted patch directly causes the problem mentioned above. In case of SGMII the phy_addr is not known at this point and will only be obtained by 'igb_get_phy_id_82575' further down in the code. The second removed patch selects forces selection of page 0 in the PHY. Something that the reset tries to address as well.
As pointed out by Alexander Duzck, the patch below fixes the same issue but in the proper location:
