Avoid a long delay when a busy bit is still set and has to be polled again. Measurements on a system with 2 Opals (6097F) and one Agate (6352) show that even with this much tighter loop, we have about a 50% chance of the bit being cleared on the first poll, all other accesses see the bit being cleared on the second poll. On a standard MDIO bus running MDC at 2.5MHz, a single access with 32 bits of preamble plus 32 bits of data takes 64*(1/2.5MHz) = 25.6us. This means that mv88e6xxx_smi_direct_wait took 26us + CPU overhead in the fast scenario, but 26us + 1500us + 26us + CPU overhead in the slow case - bringing the average close to 1ms. With this change in place, the slow case is closer to 2*26us + CPU overhead, with the average well below 100us - a 10x improvement. This translates to real-world winnings. On a 3-chip 20-port system, the modprobe time drops by 88%: Before: root@coronet:~# time modprobe mv88e6xxx real 0m 15.99s user 0m 0.00s sys 0m 1.52s After: root@coronet:~# time modprobe mv88e6xxx real 0m 2.21s user 0m 0.00s sys 0m 1.54s Signed-off-by: Tobias Waldekranz <tobias@waldekranz.com> --- drivers/net/dsa/mv88e6xxx/chip.c | 10 +++++++--- drivers/net/dsa/mv88e6xxx/smi.c | 8 ++++++-- 2 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
