The only thing which might speak against this, is some bootloader which sets something other than the default, and here we put it back to the value it should have. But if you say a reset will put it back to the default value anyway, this seems save. Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Andrew

I was worried about this too bu the bank also gets reset on power down and soft reset, so we won't get bootloader value at this point > > Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> > > Andrew

The PHY performs just as well when left in its default configuration and it makes senses because this poke gets reset just after init. According to the documentation, all registers in the Analog/DSP bank are reset when there is a mode switch from 10BT to 100BT. In the end, we have used the default configuration so far and there is no reason to change now. Remove CONFIG_A6 poke to make this clear. Signed-off-by: Jerome Brunet <jbrunet@baylibre.com> --- Out of curiosity, I tried to re-apply the ANALOG/DSP settings on speed changes (patch available here [0] if someone wants to try) but I did not notice any change as a result. In the end, I thought it was safer to keep on using the ANALOG settings we have been actually using so far, everybody seems to be happy with them [0]: https://github.com/jeromebrunet/linux/commit/b594288e629a61574e76112497474fd3cf46c781 drivers/net/phy/meson-gxl.c | 9 --------- 1 file changed, 9 deletions(-)
