The driver calls ice_ptp_cfg_timestamp() during ice_ptp_prepare_for_reset() to disable timestamping while the device is resetting. This operation destroys the user requested configuration. While the driver does call ice_ptp_cfg_timestamp in ice_rebuild() to restore some hardware settings after a reset, it unconditionally passes true or false, resulting in failure to restore previous user space configuration. This results in a device reset forcibly disabling timestamp configuration regardless of current user settings. This was not detected previously due to a quirk of the LinuxPTP ptp4l application. If ptp4l detects a missing timestamp, it enters a fault state and performs recovery logic which includes executing SIOCSHWTSTAMP again, restoring the now accidentally cleared configuration. Not every application does this, and for these applications, timestamps will mysteriously stop after a PF reset, without being restored until an application restart. Fix this by replacing ice_ptp_cfg_timestamp() with two new functions: 1) ice_ptp_disable_timestamp_mode() which unconditionally disables the timestamping logic in ice_ptp_prepare_for_reset() and ice_ptp_release() 2) ice_ptp_restore_timestamp_mode() which calls ice_ptp_restore_tx_interrupt() to restore Tx timestamping configuration, calls ice_set_rx_tstamp() to restore Rx timestamping configuration, and issues an immediate TSYN_TX interrupt to ensure that timestamps which may have occurred during the device reset get processed. Modify the ice_ptp_set_timestamp_mode to directly save the user configuration and then call ice_ptp_restore_timestamp_mode. This way, reset no longer destroys the saved user configuration. This obsoletes the ice_set_tx_tstamp() function which can now be safely removed. With this change, all devices should now restore Tx and Rx timestamping functionality correctly after a PF reset without application intervention. Fixes: |

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.
