Please could you provide more information about the hardware. Is the PHY more capable than the MAC? When you have multi Gigi PHYs, the phy-mode is often taken to be the starting point. But when the PHY has negotiated a link, it will tell the MAC what PHY mode it needs to swap to, e.g from SGMII to 2500BaseX, etc. You should only need max-speed when you have a PHY which can do more than the MAC. Also, phylink handles this a lot better than phylib. So you might want to change rswitch to phylink, especially if you have link speeds > 1G. Andrew

Unfortunately I don't have the spider schematics nearby, but AFAIU (one of flavours of) the board has PHYs capable of 5G but connected over SGMII. When two such boards are connected to each other, on mainline kernel auto-negotiation takes noticeably longer than with the Renesas BSP kernel. > Also, phylink handles this a lot better than phylib.

I did not check the tech details of that, but decided not to touch it. Nikita

I'm actually curious how it established a link at all. If both PHYs are advertising 5G, they should be happy on the media side. They will get link. But they will ask the MAC to swap to 5000BaseX or similar. I assume the MAC cannot do that, but what does it do? How does the PHY know it should try something slower? > > Also, phylink handles this a lot better than phylib.

Might be worth taking another look, especially if anybody wants to use SFPs. Andrew

Also, USXGMII allows up to 10G. So this all looks a bit odd. Andrew

It was observed on spider board that with upstream kernel, PHY auto-negotiation takes almost 1 second longer than with renesas BSP kernel. This was tracked down to upstream kernel allowing more PHY modes than renesas BSP kernel. To avoid that effect when possible, always set max_speed to not more than phy_interface allows. While at this, also ensure that etha->speed always gets a supported value, even if max_speed in device tree is set to something else.
