DHCP failures were observed with systemd 247.6. The issue could be reproduced by rebooting Aspeed 2600 and then running ifconfig ethX down/up. It is caused by below procedures in the driver: 1. ftgmac100_open() enables net interface and call phy_start() 2. When PHY is link up, it calls netif_carrier_on() and then adjust_link callback 3. ftgmac100_adjust_link() will schedule the reset task 4. ftgmac100_reset_task() will then reset the MAC in another schedule After step 2, systemd will be notified to send DHCP discover packet, while the packet might be corrupted by MAC reset operation in step 4. Call ftgmac100_reset() directly instead of scheduling task to fix the issue. Signed-off-by: Heyi Guo <guoheyi@linux.alibaba.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
