[PATCH net 0/2] net: macb: Fix Ethernet malfunction on AMD Versal board after suspend

[Kevin Hao]

Hi,

On Versal boards, the tx/rx queue pointer registers are cleared after suspend,
which causes Ethernet malfunction. This patch series addresses this issue by
reinitializing the tx/rx queue pointer registers and the rx ring.

[PATCH net 2/2] net: macb: Reinitialize tx/rx queue pointer registers and rx ring during resume

[Kevin Hao]

On certain platforms, such as AMD Versal boards, the tx/rx queue pointer
registers are cleared after suspend, and the rx queue pointer register
is also disabled during suspend if WOL is enabled. Previously, we assumed
that these registers would be restored by macb_mac_link_up(). However,
in commit bf9cf80cab81, macb_init_buffers() was moved from
macb_mac_link_up() to macb_open(). Therefore, we should call
macb_init_buffers() to reinitialize the tx/rx queue pointer registers
during resume.

Due to the reset of these two registers, we also need to adjust the
tx/rx rings accordingly. The tx ring will be handled by
gem_shuffle_tx_rings() in macb_mac_link_up(), so we only need to
initialize the rx ring here.
