Date: Thu, 06 May 2010 01:00:27 -0700 From: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com> To: davem@...emloft.net Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, gospo@...hat.com, Bruce Allan <bruce.w.allan@...el.com>, Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com> Subject: [net-next-2.6 PATCH 2/2] e1000e: Reset 82577/82578 PHY before first PHY register read From: Bruce Allan <bruce.w.allan@...el.com> Reset the PHY before first accessing it. Doing so, ensure that the PHY is in a known good state before we read/write PHY registers. This fixes a driver probe failure.
