It is an unfortunate reality that some PHY settings done by U-Boot persist even after the PHY is reset and taken over by Linux, and even more unfortunate that Linux has come to depend on things being set in a certain way. For example, on the NXP LS1028A-RDB, the felix switch ports are connected to a VSC8514 QSGMII PHY. Between the switch port PCS and the PHY, the U-Boot drivers enable in-band auto-negotiation which makes the copper-side negotiated speed and duplex be transmitted from the PHY to the MAC automatically. The PHY driver portion that does this is in vsc8514_config(): /* Enable Serdes Auto-negotiation */ phy_write(phydev, MDIO_DEVAD_NONE, PHY_EXT_PAGE_ACCESS, PHY_EXT_PAGE_ACCESS_EXTENDED3); val = phy_read(phydev, MDIO_DEVAD_NONE, MIIM_VSC8514_MAC_SERDES_CON); val = val | MIIM_VSC8574_MAC_SERDES_ANEG; phy_write(phydev, MDIO_DEVAD_NONE, MIIM_VSC8514_MAC_SERDES_CON, val); The point is that in-band autoneg should be turned on in both the PHY and the MAC, or off in both the PHY and the MAC, otherwise the QSGMII link will be broken. And because phy_config() is currently called at .port_enable() time, the result is that ports on which traffic has been sent in U-Boot will have in-band autoneg enabled, and the rest won't. It can be argued that the Linux kernel should not assume one way or another and just reinitialize everything according to what it expects, and that is completely fair. In fact, I've already started an attempt to remove this dependency, although admittedly I am making slow progress at it: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20210212172341.3489046-1-olteanv@gmail.com/ Nonetheless, the sad reality is that NXP also has, apart from kernel drivers, some user space networking (DPDK), and for some reason, the expectation there is that somebody else initializes the PHYs. The kernel can't do it because the device ownership doesn't belong to the kernel, so what remains is for the bootloader to do it (especially since other drivers generally call phy_config() at probe time). This is a really weak guarantee that might break at any time, but apparently that is enough for some. Since initializing the ports and PHYs at probe time does not break anything, we can just do that.
