My DM9000A based board broke (no longer getting any PHY interrupts so
never determines that it has established a link) as a result of this
patch (6741f40d198c).  This email is partially a call for help to the
Davicom guys who introduced this change and partially a probe to see if
anyone else has had any luck with the DM9000A or DM9000B post this
patch.

For the purpose of clarity/discussion, the patch shown at the bottom of
this email is not the actual patch applied because the patch applied
moved around functions, reformatted comments, and other things which
kind of obscures the actual changes being made so I went through and put
together a minimal patch with the same overall effect on the code.

There's really two changes being introduced by this patch: initial reset
turns on the MAC loopback and internal PHY reset.

Patch

===
On the subject of the initial reset:

This doesn't seem to be the source of my issues and I have noticed that
a similar change has already been introduced to the U-Boot dm9000
driver.  I will eventually be submitting a follow-up patch that fixes
this to Jonathan Corbet's initial suggestion
( https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/25/481 ) because the bare iow() ignores
the reset timing requirements of the DM9000 and consequently always hits
the following error message as it attempts to read the ID before the
part has come out of reset.

	dev_err(db->dev, "read wrong id 0x%08x\n", id_val);

===
On the subject of the PHY reset:

Removing just this portion of the patch gets me up and working again.
Unfortunately there is little documentation on these registers available
in the datasheet and the "DSP Control Register" in particular is
actually not even shown in the memory map of the DM9000A or DM9000B in
the datasheet.  I have even modified the driver to properly wait for the
PHY reset to finish (which was also omitted from this patch series)
before writing more to the PHY but I'm still out of luck.

Any thoughts, experiences?

Thanks,
Andy

Subject: [PATCH] DM9000B: driver initialization upgrade

Fix bug for DM9000 revision B which contain a DSP PHY

DM9000B use DSP PHY instead previouse DM9000 revisions' analog PHY,
So need extra change in initialization, For
explicity PHY Reset and PHY init parameter, and
first DM9000_NCR reset need NCR_MAC_LBK bit by dm9000_probe().

Following DM9000_NCR reset cause by dm9000_open() clear the
NCR_MAC_LBK bit.

Without this fix, Power-up FIFO pointers error happen around 2%
rate among Davicom's customers' boards. With this fix, All above
cases can be solved.
