Thanks Russell, it works as we are expected, I test both MAC-based WoL active and inactive cases.

And I get the point you mentioned before, if link parameters changed during system suspended, what would happen?
I tried both FEC and STMMAC, the system can't be waked up via remote magic packets!!!
I have not think about this scenario before....

Since net-next is closed, so I would cook a patch set (keep you as the phylink patch author) after it re-open, could you
accept it? Or you plan to prepare this patch set for stmmac?

There is also a problem, we need a fix for LTS (5.10, 5.15), above patch set should go to 5.16, do you have any suggestion?

Best Regards,
Joakim Zhang
