Resetting the switch at runtime is currently done while changing the vlan_filtering setting (due to the required TPID change). But reset is asynchronous with packet egress, and the switch core will not wait for egress to finish before carrying on with the reset operation. As a result, a connected PHY such as the BCM5464 would see an unterminated Ethernet frame and start to jabber (repeat the last seen Ethernet symbols - jabber is by definition an oversized Ethernet frame with bad FCS). This behavior is strange in itself, but it also causes the MACs of some link partners (such as the FRDM-LS1012A) to completely lock up. So as a remedy for this situation, when switch reset is required, simply inhibit Tx on all ports, and wait for the necessary time for the eventual one frame left in the egress queue (not even the Tx inhibit command is instantaneous) to be flushed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
