Hello Shawn, sorry for bothering. Can you tell me if there's anything missing or wrong with this patch, or if there's anything else I can do so that it becomes applied? Thanks and regards, Christoph On Fr, 2025-07-18 at 17:33 +0000, Christoph Stoidner wrote:

I agree it is long enough, but i'm also surprised how slow the kernel was. Are you using a fixed IP address, or dhcp?I use a fixed IP address. But isn't the bringup of ethernet+phy interface one of the last things that happens during the kernel boot-up?Mounting the rootfs is somewhat towards the end of the core kernel. But if you have an initramfs, there can be modules loaded both before and afterwards, and once the rootfs has been mounted, yet more modules can be loaded.quoted
However, what timing would you expect?I've seen interfaces configured up from deep within register_netdev(). I don't remember the exact configuration, but i thought it was NFS root. It might be in combination with initramfs. If you have the Ethernet driver as a module in the initramfs, and are using the "rootwait" option, it could be that you are already past the point it would first mount the rootfs, and with every new device popping into existence it is trying to see if the just created device allows it to do the mount. At that point, register_netdev() is going to trigger actions.
