commit 4a3e0aeddf091f00974b02627c157843ce382a24 upstream. mv88e6xxx_port_ppu_updates() interpretes data in the PORT_STS register incorrectly for internal ports (ie no PPU). In these cases, the PHY_DETECT bit indicates link status. This results in forcing the MAC state whenever the PHY link goes down which is not intended. As a side effect, LED's configured to show link status stay lit even though the physical link is down. Add a check in mac_link_down and mac_link_up to see if it concerns an external port and only then, look at PPU status. Fixes: 5d5b231da7ac (net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: use PHY_DETECT in mac_link_up/mac_link_down) Reported-by: Maarten Zanders <m.zanders@televic.com> Reviewed-by: Maxime Chevallier <maxime.chevallier@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Maarten Zanders <maarten.zanders@mind.be> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
