Subject: [PATCH net v2 2/6] net: stmmac: selftests: Validate EEE based on the actual LPI timer value
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 17:13:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910151404.976753-3-maxime.chevallier@bootlin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910151404.976753-1-maxime.chevallier@bootlin.com>

The EEE selftest is a 2-step test :
 - It validates that we enter in LPI mode with the
   irq_tx_path_in_lpi_mode_n counter
 - It then validates that we exit LPI when sending a frame, with the
   irq_tx_path_exit_lpi_mode_n counter.

The current state of the test lacks 2 main things :

 - We don't know exactly when was the previous frame sent (it's from the
   previous selftest)

 - The timeout is hardcoded, while the LPI is entered after a
   user-configurable delay. On top of that, the timeout loop uses a
   pre-decrement iterator (--retries) that actually only iterate nine
   times, so 900ms while the default LPI value is 1 second.

Let's therefore make it more deterministic :

 - Send a frame at the beginning of the test
 - Wait for more than the lpi timer value, we timeout after about twice
   the value,
 - Then send another frame, and verify that we do go out of LPI, also
   with a timeout.

Note that the test's goal isn't to validate the LPI timer value itself,
only that we enter/leave LPI mode.
