[PATCH net-next 1/5] net: ethernet: oa_tc6: Allow custom reset settle time values

From: Iustin Stolniceanu

Date: Tue Nov 03 2026 - 13:04:17 EST


From: Ciprian Regus <ciprian.regus@xxxxxxxxxx>

oa_tc6_init() waits a fixed 1 ms after deasserting the reset GPIO
before accessing the MAC-PHY. The reset timing parameters of a MAC-PHY
device are outside of the OA TC6 scope. For example, the ADIN1110 needs
up to 50 ms after RESET is deasserted before its registers can be
accessed.

Add a reset_settle_us field to struct oa_tc6_quirks so drivers can
set this time. If it is not set, the GPIO reset keeps the existing
1 ms wait.

When set, also apply the wait after the software reset, before polling
STATUS0 for RESETC. This is needed for devices that tristate their SDO
pin during a reset. Drivers that don't set reset_settle_us keep the
current behaviour.
