Subject: [PATCH net v2] mlxbf_gige: return EPROBE_DEFER if PHY IRQ is not available
Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2025 13:59:02 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250618135902.346-1-davthompson@nvidia.com> (raw)
The message "Error getting PHY irq. Use polling instead"
is emitted when the mlxbf_gige driver is loaded by the
kernel before the associated gpio-mlxbf driver, and thus
the call to get the PHY IRQ fails since it is not yet
available. The driver probe() must return -EPROBE_DEFER
if acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get_by() returns the same.
Fixes: 6c2a6ddca763 ("net: mellanox: mlxbf_gige: Replace non-standard interrupt handling")
