net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: fix RX data corruption issue
Fix data corruption issue with SerDes connected PHYs operating at 1.25 Gbps speed where we could previously observe about 30% packet loss while the bad packet counter was increasing. As almost all boards with MediaTek MT7622 or MT7986 use either the MT7531 switch IC operating at 3.125Gbps SerDes rate or single-port PHYs using rate-adaptation to 2500Base-X mode, this issue only got exposed now when we started trying to use SFP modules operating with 1.25 Gbps with the BananaPi R3 board. The fix is to set bit 12 which disables the RX FIFO clear function when setting up MAC MCR, MediaTek SDK did the same change stating: "If without this patch, kernel might receive invalid packets that are corrupted by GMAC."[1] [1]: https://git01.mediatek.com/plugins/gitiles/openwrt/feeds/mtk-openwrt-feeds/+/d8a2975939a12686c4a95c40db21efdc3f821f63 Fixes: 42c03844 ("net-next: mediatek: add support for MediaTek MT7622 SoC") Tested-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org> Reviewed-by: Vladimir Oltean <olteanv@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/138da2735f92c8b6f8578ec2e5a794ee515b665f.1677937317.git.daniel@makrotopia.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
