I am not sure to understand what is lost. On my setup ethtool shows
that everything is fine after resume but maybe I fall into a "default"
working case.
When I compare with the two drivers pointed out by Andrew:
* qca8k resume callback:
* enable ports,
* call dsa_switch_resume().
* bcm_sf2 resume callback:
* call dsa_switch_resume(),
* reset the switch,
* refresh rules (Not applicable?),
* enable the PHYs,
* setup the ports,
* configure vlan (Not applicable?),
* mv88e6xxx resume callback:
* reset the switch,
* enable the PHYs,
* setup the ports,
* enable IRQs,
* call dsa_switch_resume().
This looks pretty similar. Maybe the ports setup are set to default
values while I should save some parameters at suspend? I changed a
few parameters (like the MTU or the queue length) but they seem to be
correct across suspend cycles. Can you show a diff of what part of the
configuration is lost?
Anyway, I have little background working with switches, so I might miss
something big.
Thanks,
Miquèl
