From: Enguerrand de Ribaucourt <enguerrand.de-ribaucourt@savoirfairelinux.com> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.129 commit 9c06d84855bdb38fd9160dcb5708db482c358c73 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5YNDQ Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit c96614eeab663646f57f67aa591e015abd8bd0ba upstream. When unplugging an Ethernet cable, false carrier events were produced by the PHY at a very high rate. Once the false carrier counter full, an interrupt was triggered every few clock cycles until the cable was replugged. This resulted in approximately 10k/s interrupts. Since the false carrier counter (FCSCR) is never used, we can safely disable this interrupt. In addition to improving performance, this also solved MDIO read timeouts I was randomly encountering with an i.MX8 fec MAC because of the interrupt flood. The interrupt count and MDIO timeout fix were tested on a v5.4.110 kernel.
