[PATCH v2 06/10] net: pcs: xpcs: add ANRESTART support for SGMII link recovery

From: Coia Prant <hidden>
Date: 2026-08-01 14:24:11
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, linux-devicetree, linux-phy, linux-renesas-soc, linux-rockchip, lkml
Subsystem: ethernet phy library, networking drivers, synopsys designware ethernet xpcs driver, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, Heiner Kallweit, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

On some hardware using the DesignWare XPCS IP (e.g., RK3568 MAC side
SGMII), the PCS does not automatically restart auto-negotiation when the
link goes down and comes back up. Without an explicit ANRESTART, the link
stays down forever.

Add BMCR_ANRESTART in two places:
1. In xpcs_config_aneg_c37_sgmii(), when starting AN, set ANRESTART
   alongside ANENABLE to initiate a fresh negotiation.
2. In xpcs_get_state_c37_sgmii(), when link is down and AN completion is
   detected, clear the interrupt and trigger ANRESTART to restart the
   negotiation process.

This change has been verified on:
- RK3568 (Photonicat board)
- Wangxun NICs (no regression)
