Subject: [PATCH net v3 10/14] ice: E825: perform a soft reset when starting the PHY timer
Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2026 12:10:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261015191102.1174111-11-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261015191102.1174111-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>

From: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com>

To ensure that the E825 PHY timer begins in a clean state, initiate a PHY
soft reset prior to programming the PHY. This ensures that we clear any
outstanding Tx timestamp memory, and ensures that the PHY internal state
including its timestamp counter has been reset.

Note that despite the name, this PHY soft reset only impacts the timer
block of the PHY, and not its regular Tx/Rx functionality. Additionally,
many configuration registers such as the PHY_REG_TS_INT_CONFIG and
PHY_REG_TX_OFFSET_READY are not reset.

Since the E825 PHY restart procedure now performs a soft reset, flush the
outstanding timestamps instead of marking them as stale. This avoids
keeping those indexes locked in software unnecessarily for 2 seconds. This
is safe because the soft reset procedure will restore the timestamp state
and clear any desync.
