Thanks, Michael. After digging some more into it, I've found that the
problem is in tg3_power_down_phy() routine. Apparently 57780 PHY
is not handled properly. If tg3_power_down_phy() is not invoked from
tg3_set_power_state(), the problem is not reproducible anymore. I don't
have enough information about  NIC internals to dig further.

Hi,

The problem goes away if I remove the call to

tg3_set_power_state(tp, PCI_D3hot);

from tg3_close().

Some relevant stuff from dmesg:

pci 0002:05:00.0: PME# supported from D3hot D3cold
pci 0002:05:00.0: PME# disabled
tg3.c:v3.102 (September 1, 2009)
tg3 0002:05:00.0: enabling device ( - 0002)
tg3 0002:05:00.0: PME# disabled
tg3 mdio bus: probed
eth2: Tigon3 [partno(BCM57760) rev 57780001] (PCI Express) MAC address 
00:10:18:00:00:00

eth2: attached PHY driver [Broadcom BCM57780] (mii_bus:phy_addr=500:01)
eth2: RXcsums[1] LinkChgREG[0] MIirq[0] ASF[0] TSOcap[1]
eth2: dma_rwctrl[7618] dma_mask[64-bit]

Is my problem related to hardware or it's a tg3 driver bug ?

Thanks a lot.

Felix.

Hi,

I have a problem with tg3 driver on a custom MPC8536 based board
running linux-2.6.31, with tg3 and Broadcom phy drivers taken from
linux-2.6.32-rc7. Broadcom NIC is BCM57760, phy is BCM57780.

The problem I'm seeing is that the downing and interface leads to
permanent link loss, even after interface is upped again. E.g, to
reproduce the problem it is sufficient to run:

modprobe tg3
ifconfig eth2 up
ifconfig eth2 down
ifconfig eth2 up

After ifdown PHY LEDs also go down and do not come back
after ifup. Ethtool reports that no link is detected. After reloading
the driver the link comes back.

Am I the only one seeing this problem  ?
Any help on fixing this is appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

Felix.
