From 51e2a3846eab18711f4eb59cd0a4c33054e2980a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trent Piepho Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2008 10:55:46 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] PHY: Avoid unnecessary aneg restarts The PHY's aneg is configured and restarted whenever the link is brought up, e.g. when DHCP is started after the kernel has booted. This can take the link down for several seconds while auto-negotiation is redone. If the advertised features haven't changed, then it shouldn't be necessary to bring down the link and start auto-negotiation over again. genphy_config_advert() is enhanced to return 0 when the advertised features haven't been changed and >0 when they have been. genphy_config_aneg() then uses this information to not call genphy_restart_aneg() if there has been no change.
