Phy with reset-gpio fails to read phy id during kexec -e

[Xiaolei Wang <xiaolei.wang@windriver.com>]

Hi

During kexec -e, I found that the network card did not work when loading 
the kernel.

I found that some phys used reset-gpios. When kexec -e is running,

the network port will do_ifdown, and phy_detach() will be called at

this time, which will call phy_device_reset(phydev, 1); to keep phy in

reset state.

After loading the kernel, since phy is always in reset state, the mdio

controller fails to access phy id. Therefore, if phy uses reset-gpios

during kexec -e, the network port will not work. However, I have not

found a better solution. Can anyone give some suggestions?


kexec -e:

phy is always in reset state

   pca953x_gpio_set_value+0x8c/0xf8
   gpiochip_set+0x60/0x12c
   gpiod_set_raw_value_commit+0xe8/0x1e4
   gpiod_set_value_nocheck+0x58/0xe4
   gpiod_set_value_cansleep+0x4c/0xa8
   mdio_device_reset+0x48/0x158
   phy_detach+0x144/0x258
   phy_disconnect+0x54/0x74
   fec_enet_close+0x58/0x218

After loading kernel, reading phy id will report an error:

      mdio_bus 42890000.ethernet-1: MDIO device at address 2 is missing

   __of_mdiobus_parse_phys+0x260/0x338
   __of_mdiobus_register+0x118/0x28c
