Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Disable checks in hardware pipeline Amit says: The hardware pipeline contains some checks that, by default, are configured to drop packets. Since the software data path does not drop packets due to these reasons and since we are interested in offloading the software data path to hardware, then these checks should be disabled in the hardware pipeline as well. This patch set changes mlxsw to disable four of these checks and adds corresponding selftests. The tests pass both when the software data path is exercised (using veth pair) and when the hardware data path is exercised (using mlxsw ports in loopback). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

In hclge_inform_reset_assert_to_vf(), variable reset_type(enum type) will be copied into msg_data whose size is 2 bytes. Currently, hip08 is a little-endian machine, so the lower two bytes of reset_type will be copied to msg_data. But when running on a big-endian machine, msg_data will have a wrong value(the higher two bytes of reset_type). So this patch modifies the type of reset_type to u16, and adds a build check in case enum hnae3_reset_type has value larger than U16_MAX.

Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== Convert Felix DSA switch to PHYLINK Unlike most other conversions, this one is not by far a trivial one, and should be seen as "Layerscape PCS meets PHYLINK". Actually, the PCS doesn't need a lot of hand-holding and most of our other devices 'just work' (this one included) without any sort of operating system awareness, just an initialization procedure done typically in the bootloader. Our issues start when the PCS stops from "just working", and that is where PHYLINK comes in handy. The PCS is not specific to the Vitesse / Microsemi / Microchip switching core at all. Variations of this SerDes/PCS design can also be found on DPAA1 and DPAA2 hardware. The main idea of the abstraction provided is that the PCS looks so much like a PHY device, that we model it as an actual PHY device and run the generic PHY functions on it, where appropriate. The 4xSGMII, QSGMII and QSXGMII modes are fairly straightforward. The SerDes protocol which the driver calls 2500Base-X mode (a misnomer) is more interesting. There is a description of how it works and what can be done with it in patch 9/9 (in a comment above vsc9959_pcs_init_2500basex). In short, it is a fixed speed protocol with no auto-negotiation whatsoever. From my research of the SGMII-2500 patent [1], it has nothing to do with SGMII-2500. That one: * does not define any change to the AN base page compared to plain 10/100/1000 SGMII. This implies that the 2500 speed is not negotiable, but the other speeds are. In our case, when the SerDes is configured for this protocol it's configured for good, there's no going back to SGMII. * runs at a higher base frequency than regular SGMII. So SGMII-2500 operating at 1000 Mbps wouldn't interoperate with plain SGMII at 1000 Mbps. Strange, but ok.. * Emulates lower link speeds than 2500 by duplicating the codewords twice, then thrice, then twice again etc (2.5/25/250 times on average). The Layerscape PCS doesn't do that (it is fixed at 2500 Mbaud). But on the other hand it isn't completely compatible with Base-X either, since it doesn't do 802.3z / clause 37 auto negotiation (flow control, local/remote fault etc). It is compatible with 2500Base-X without in-band AN, and that is exactly how we decided to expose it (this is actually similar to what others do). For SGMII and USXGMII, the driver is using the PHYLINK 'managed = "in-band-status"' DTS binding to figure out whether in-band AN is expected to be enabled in the PCS or not. It is expected that the attached PHY follows suite, but there is a gap here: the PHY driver does not react to this setting, so only one of "AN on" and "AN off" works on any particular PHY, even though that PHY might support bypassing the SGMII AN process, as is the case on the VSC8514 PHY present on the LS1028A-RDB board. A separate series will be sent to propose a way to deal with that. I dropped the Ocelot PHYLINK conversion because: * I don't have VSC7514 hardware anyway * The hardware is so different in this regard that there's almost nothing to share anyway. Changes in v5: - Added the register write to DEV_CLOCK_CFG back in felix_phylink_mac_config in patch 9/9. Changes in v4: - This is mostly a resend of v3, with the only notable change that I've dropped the PHY core patches for in_band_autoneg and I'll propose them independently. v1 series: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg613869.html RFC v2 series: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg620128.html v3 series: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg622060.html v4 series: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg622606.html [0]: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg613869.html [1]: https://patents.google.com/patent/US7356047B1/en ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Layerscape SoCs traditionally expose the SerDes configuration/status for Ethernet protocols (PCS for SGMII/USXGMII/10GBase-R etc etc) in a register format that is compatible with clause 22 or clause 45 (depending on SerDes protocol). Each MAC has its own internal MDIO bus on which there is one or more of these PCS's, responding to commands at a configurable PHY address. The per-port internal MDIO bus (which is just for PCSs) is totally separate and has nothing to do with the dedicated external MDIO controller (which is just for PHYs), but the register map for the MDIO controller is the same. The VSC9959 (Felix) switch instantiated in the LS1028A is integrated in hardware with the ENETC PCS of its DSA master, and reuses its MDIO controller driver, so Felix has been made to depend on it in Kconfig. +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | +--------+ GMII (typically disabled via RCW) | | ENETC PCI | ENETC |--------------------------+ | | Root Complex | port 3 |-----------------------+ | | | Integrated +--------+ | | | | Endpoint | | | | +--------+ 2.5G GMII | | | | | ENETC |--------------+ | | | | | port 2 |-----------+ | | | | | +--------+ | | | | | | +--------+ +--------+ | | | Felix | | Felix | | | | port 4 | | port 5 | | | +--------+ +--------+ | | | | +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ | | | ENETC | | ENETC | | Felix | | Felix | | Felix | | Felix | | | | port 0 | | port 1 | | port 0 | | port 1 | | port 2 | | port 3 | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | |||| SerDes | |||| |||| |||| |||| | | +--------+block | +--------------------------------------------+ | | | ENETC | | | ENETC port 2 internal MDIO bus | | | | port 0 | | | PCS PCS PCS PCS | | | | PCS | | | 0 1 2 3 | | +-----------------|------------------------------------------------------+ v v v v v v SGMII/ RGMII QSGMII/QSXGMII/4xSGMII/4x1000Base-X/4x2500Base-X USXGMII/ (bypasses 1000Base-X/ SerDes) 2500Base-X In the LS1028A SoC described above, the VSC9959 Felix switch is PF5 of the ENETC root complex, and has 2 BARs: - BAR 4: the switch's effective registers - BAR 0: the MDIO controller register map lended from ENETC port 2 (PF2), for accessing its associated PCS's. This explanation is necessary because the patch does some renaming "pci_bar" -> "switch_pci_bar" for clarity, which would otherwise appear a bit obtuse. The fact that the internal MDIO bus is "borrowed" is relevant because the register map is found in PF5 (the switch) but it triggers an access fault if PF2 (the ENETC DSA master) is not enabled. This is not treated in any way (and I don't think it can be treated). All of this is so SoC-specific, that it was contained as much as possible in the platform-integration file felix_vsc9959.c. We need to parse and pre-validate the device tree because of 2 reasons: - The PHY mode (SerDes protocol) cannot change at runtime due to SoC design. - There is a circular dependency in that we need to know what clause the PCS speaks in order to find it on the internal MDIO bus. But the clause of the PCS depends on what phy-mode it is configured for. The goal of this patch is to make steps towards removing the bootloader dependency for SGMII PCS pre-configuration, as well as to add support for monitoring the in-band SGMII AN between the PCS and the system-side link partner (PHY or other MAC). In practice the bootloader dependency is not completely removed. U-Boot pre-programs the PHY address at which each PCS can be found on the internal MDIO bus (MDEV_PORT). This is needed because the PCS of each port has the same out-of-reset PHY address of zero. The SerDes register for changing MDEV_PORT is pretty deep in the SoC (outside the addresses of the ENETC PCI BARs) and therefore inaccessible to us from here. Felix VSC9959 and Ocelot VSC7514 are integrated very differently in their respective SoCs, and for that reason Felix does not use the Ocelot core library for PHYLINK. On one hand we don't want to impose the fixed phy-mode limitation to Ocelot, and on the other hand Felix doesn't need to force the MAC link speed the way Ocelot does, since the MAC is connected to the PCS through a fixed GMII, and the PCS is the one who does the rate adaptation at lower link speeds, which the MAC does not even need to know about. In fact changing the GMII speed for Felix irrecoverably breaks transmission through that port until a reset. The pair with ENETC port 3 and Felix port 5 is optional and doesn't support tagging. When we enable it, swp5 is a regular slave port, albeit an internal one. The trouble is that it doesn't work, and that is because the DSA PHYLIB adaptation layer doesn't treat fixed-link slave ports. So that is yet another reason for wanting to convert Felix to the native PHYLINK API. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The Ocelot switchdev driver and the Felix DSA one need it for different reasons. Felix (or at least the VSC9959 instantiation in NXP LS1028A) is integrated with the traditional NXP Layerscape PCS design which does not support runtime configuration of SerDes protocol. So it needs to pre-validate the phy-mode from the device tree and prevent PHYLINK from attempting to change it. For this, it needs to cache it in a private variable.

This increases the MDIO hold time to 5 enet_clk cycles from the previous value of 0. This is actually the out-of-reset value, that the driver was previously overwriting with 0. Zero worked for the external MDIO, but breaks communication with the internal MDIO buses on which the PCS of ENETC SI's and Felix switch are found.

Within the LS1028A SoC, the register map for the ENETC MDIO controller is instantiated a few times: for the central (external) MDIO controller, for the internal bus of each standalone ENETC port, and for the internal bus of the Felix switch. Refactoring is needed to support multiple MDIO buses from multiple drivers. The enetc_hw structure is made an opaque type and a smaller enetc_mdio_priv is created. 'mdio_base' - MDIO registers base address - is being parameterized, to be able to work with different MDIO register bases. The ENETC MDIO bus operations are exported from the fsl-enetc-mdio kernel object, the same that registers the central MDIO controller (the dedicated PF). The ENETC main driver has been changed to select it, and use its exported helpers to further register its private MDIO bus. The DSA Felix driver will do the same.

The DSA drivers that implement .phylink_mac_link_state should normally register an interrupt for the PCS, from which they should call phylink_mac_change(). However not all switches implement this, and those who don't should set this flag in dsa_switch in the .setup callback, so that PHYLINK will poll for a few ms until the in-band AN link timer expires and the PCS state settles.

Some MAC PCS blocks are unable to provide interrupts when their status changes. As we already have support in phylink for polling status, use this to provide a hook for MACs to enable polling mode. The patch idea was picked up from Russell King's suggestion on the macb phylink patch thread here [0] but the implementation was changed. Instead of introducing a new phylink_start_poll() function, which would make the implementation cumbersome for common PHYLINK implementations for multiple types of devices, like DSA, just add a boolean property to the phylink_config structure, which is just as backwards-compatible. https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/12/16/603Suggested-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

QSGMII is a SerDes protocol clocked at 5 Gbaud (4 times higher than SGMII which is clocked at 1.25 Gbaud), with the same 8b/10b encoding and some extra symbols for synchronization. Logically it offers 4 SGMII interfaces multiplexed onto the same physical lanes. Each MAC PCS has its own in-band AN process with the system side of the QSGMII PHY, which is identical to the regular SGMII AN process. So allow QSGMII as a valid in-band AN mode, since it is no different from software perspective from regular SGMII. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Typically a MAC PCS auto-configures itself after it receives the negotiated copper-side link settings from the PHY, but some MAC devices are more special and need manual interpretation of the SGMII AN result. In other cases, the PCS exposes the entire tx_config_reg base page as it is transmitted on the wire during auto-negotiation, so it makes sense to be able to decode the equivalent lp_advertised bit mask from the raw u16 (of course, "lp" considering the PCS to be the local PHY). Therefore, add the bit definitions for the SGMII registers 4 and 5 (local device ability, link partner ability), as well as a link_mode conversion helper that can be used to feed the AN results into phy_resolve_aneg_linkmode.

Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== Improvements to the DSA deferred xmit After the feedback received on v1: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg622617.html I've decided to move the deferred xmit implementation completely within the sja1105 driver. The executive summary for this series is the same as it was for v1 (better for everybody): - For those who don't use it, thanks to one less assignment in the hotpath (and now also thanks to less code in the DSA core) - For those who do, by making its scheduling more amenable and moving it outside the generic workqueue (since it still deals with packet hotpath, after all) There are some simplification (1/3) and cosmetic (3/3) patches in the areas next to the code touched by the main patch (2/3). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

There are 3 things that are wrong with the DSA deferred xmit mechanism: 1. Its introduction has made the DSA hotpath ever so slightly more inefficient for everybody, since DSA_SKB_CB(skb)->deferred_xmit needs to be initialized to false for every transmitted frame, in order to figure out whether the driver requested deferral or not (a very rare occasion, rare even for the only driver that does use this mechanism: sja1105). That was necessary to avoid kfree_skb from freeing the skb. 2. Because L2 PTP is a link-local protocol like STP, it requires management routes and deferred xmit with this switch. But as opposed to STP, the deferred work mechanism needs to schedule the packet rather quickly for the TX timstamp to be collected in time and sent to user space. But there is no provision for controlling the scheduling priority of this deferred xmit workqueue. Too bad this is a rather specific requirement for a feature that nobody else uses (more below). 3. Perhaps most importantly, it makes the DSA core adhere a bit too much to the NXP company-wide policy "Innovate Where It Doesn't Matter". The sja1105 is probably the only DSA switch that requires some frames sent from the CPU to be routed to the slave port via an out-of-band configuration (register write) rather than in-band (DSA tag). And there are indeed very good reasons to not want to do that: if that out-of-band register is at the other end of a slow bus such as SPI, then you limit that Ethernet flow's throughput to effectively the throughput of the SPI bus. So hardware vendors should definitely not be encouraged to design this way. We do _not_ want more widespread use of this mechanism. Luckily we have a solution for each of the 3 issues: For 1, we can just remove that variable in the skb->cb and counteract the effect of kfree_skb with skb_get, much to the same effect. The advantage, of course, being that anybody who doesn't use deferred xmit doesn't need to do any extra operation in the hotpath. For 2, we can create a kernel thread for each port's deferred xmit work. If the user switch ports are named swp0, swp1, swp2, the kernel threads will be named swp0_xmit, swp1_xmit, swp2_xmit (there appears to be a 15 character length limit on kernel thread names). With this, the user can change the scheduling priority with chrt $(pidof swp2_xmit). For 3, we can actually move the entire implementation to the sja1105 driver. So this patch deletes the generic implementation from the DSA core and adds a new one, more adequate to the requirements of PTP TX timestamping, in sja1105_main.c.

I finally found out how the 4 management route slots are supposed to be used, but.. it's not worth it. The description from the comment I've just deleted in this commit is still true: when more than 1 management slot is active at the same time, the switch will match frames incoming [from the CPU port] on the lowest numbered management slot that matches the frame's DMAC. My issue was that one was not supposed to statically assign each port a slot. Yes, there are 4 slots and also 4 non-CPU ports, but that is a mere coincidence. Instead, the switch can be used like this: every management frame gets a slot at the right of the most recently assigned slot: Send mgmt frame 1 through S0: S0 x x x Send mgmt frame 2 through S1: S0 S1 x x Send mgmt frame 3 through S2: S0 S1 S2 x Send mgmt frame 4 through S3: S0 S1 S2 S3 The difference compared to the old usage is that the transmission of frames 1-4 doesn't need to wait until the completion of the management route. It is safe to use a slot to the right of the most recently used one, because by protocol nobody will program a slot to your left and "steal" your route towards the correct egress port. So there is a potential throughput benefit here. But mgmt frame 5 has no more free slot to use, so it has to wait until _all_ of S0, S1, S2, S3 are full, in order to use S0 again. And that's actually exactly the problem: I was looking for something that would bring more predictable transmission latency, but this is exactly the opposite: 3 out of 4 frames would be transmitted quicker, but the 4th would draw the short straw and have a worse worst-case latency than before. Useless. Things are made even worse by PTP TX timestamping, which is something I won't go deeply into here. Suffice to say that the fact there is a driver-level lock on the SPI bus offsets any potential throughput gains that parallelism might bring. So there's no going back to the multi-slot scheme, remove the "mgmt_slot" variable from sja1105_port and the dummy static assignment made at probe time. While passing by, also remove the assignment to casc_port altogether. Don't pretend that we support cascaded setups.

Russell King says: ==================== Fix 10G PHY interface types Recent discussion has revealed that our current usage of the 10GKR phy_interface_t is not correct. This is based on a misunderstanding caused in part by the various specifications being difficult to obtain. Now that a better understanding has been reached, we ought to correct this. This series introduce PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GBASER to replace the existing usage of 10GKR mode, and document their differences in the phylib documentation. Then switch PHY, SFP/phylink, the Marvell PP2 network driver, and its associated comphy driver over to use the correct interface mode. None of the existing platform usage was actually using 10GBASE-KR. In order to maintain compatibility with existing DT files, arrange for the Marvell PP2 driver to rewrite the phy interface mode; this allows other drivers to adopt correct behaviour w.r.t whether the 10G connection conforms to the backplane 10GBASE-KR protocol vs normal 10GBASE-R protocol. After applying these locally to net-next I've validated that the only places which mention the old PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR definition are: Documentation/networking/phy.rst:``PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR`` drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvpp2/mvpp2_main.c: if (phy_mode == PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR) drivers/net/phy/aquantia_main.c: phydev->interface = PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR; drivers/net/phy/aquantia_main.c: phydev->interface != PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR && include/linux/phy.h: PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR, include/linux/phy.h: case PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR: which is as expected. The only users of "10gbase-kr" in DT are: arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-7040-db.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr"; arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-8040-clearfog-gt-8k.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr"; arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-8040-db.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr"; arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-8040-db.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr"; arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-8040-mcbin-singleshot.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr"; arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-8040-mcbin-singleshot.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr"; arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-8040-mcbin.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr";arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-8040-mcbin.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr";arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/cn9130-db.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr"; arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/cn9131-db.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr"; arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/cn9132-db.dts: phy-mode = "10gbase-kr"; which all use the mvpp2 driver, and these will be updated in a separate patch to be submitted in the following kernel cycle. v2: add comment to mvpp2 driver. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Switch network drivers, phy drivers, and SFP/phylink over to use the more correct 10GBASE-R, rather than 10GBASE-KR. 10GBASE-KR is backplane ethernet, which is 10GBASE-R with autonegotiation on top, which our current usage on the affected platforms does not have. The only remaining user of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR is the Aquantia PHY, which has a separate mode for 10GBASE-KR. For Marvell mvpp2, we detect 10GBASE-KR, and rewrite it to 10GBASE-R for compatibility with existing DT - this is the only network driver at present that makes use of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_10GKR.

Since most of the management work happens in the NIC firmware, the driver becomes mostly a pass-through for the network stack commands that want to control and configure the VFs.

Fix up inconsistent usage of upper and lowercase letters in "Samsung" name. "SAMSUNG" is not an abbreviation but a regular trademarked name. Therefore it should be written with lowercase letters starting with capital letter. Although advertisement materials usually use uppercase "SAMSUNG", the lowercase version is used in all legal aspects (e.g. on Wikipedia and in privacy/legal statements on https://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/privacy-global/).
