[PATCH net-next 0/2] net: phy: Add Downshift, FLF2 drivers for Microsemi

[PATCH net-next 0/2] net: phy: Add Downshift, FLF2 drivers for Microsemi

[Raju Lakkaraju]

From: Raju Lakkaraju <Raju.Lakkaraju@microsemi.com>

This series adds support to the Speed downshift, Fast Link Failure 2,
set drivers for Microsemi PHYs.

Patch 1/4: Link Speed downshift:
        For operation in cabling environments that are incompatible with
        1000BAST-T, VSC8531 device provides an automatic link speed
        downshift operation. When enabled, the device automatically changes
        its 1000BAST-T auto-negotiation to the next slower speed after
        a set number of failed attempts at 1000BAST-T.
        This feature is useful in setting up in networks using older cable
        installations that include only pairs A and B, and not pairs C and D.

Patch 2/4: Fast Link Failure 2:
        VSC8531 Fast Link Failure 2 feature enables the PHY to indicate the
        onset of a potential link failure in < 100 usec for 100BASE-TX
        operation. FLF2 is supported through the MDINT (active low) pin.

All these features tested on Beaglebone Black with VSC 8531 PHY.

[PATCH net-next 2/2] net: phy: Add Fast Link Failure - 2 set driver for Microsemi PHYs.

[Raju Lakkaraju]

From: Raju Lakkaraju <Raju.Lakkaraju@microsemi.com>

VSC8531 Fast Link Failure 2 feature enables the PHY to indicate the
onset of a potential link failure in < 100 usec for 100BASE-TX
operation. FLF2 is supported through the MDINT (active low) pin.

Is the MDINT pin specific to this feature, or a general interrupt pin?

Device tree is used to describe the hardware. It should not really
describe software or configuration. But the borders are a bit
fluffly. Signal edge rates is near to hardware. This is a lot more
towards configuration. So i'm not sure a device tree property is the
correct way to describe this.

This is also a feature i know other PHYs support. The Marvell PHY has
a "Metro Ethernet" extension which allows it to report link failures
for 1000BASE-T in 10, 20 or 40ms, instead of the usual 750ms. So we
need a generic solution other PHYs can implement.

As with cable testing, i think it should be an ethtool option.

Any reason not to just turn this on by default when auto-neg is
enabled?

Downshift can enable by default when auto-neg enabled. This is good idea.
But we would like to provide option to customer can choose whether this
feature need to enable or disable and also configure failure attempts.

Do you have any other suggestion how to configure failure attempts?

MDINT pin is general interrupt. MDINT pin share the interrupt with
FLF2 along with another 13 interrupts.

I agree with you.
I thought this is one time initialization either enable or disable.
if customer need this feature, they can enable in DT.
Do you want me to implement through IOCTL instead of Device tree?
Do you have any other suggestions?

Is the speed downshift feature similar to what Intel and Broadcom refer to as wirespeed? I have seen cases with Broadcom PHYs where we had to turn such a feature on to allow auto-negotiation to complete with 4-wire cables, but this had the downside of impacting normal autoneg, so it is left disabled.

I would expect the number of customers using this feature to be fairly limited, so having a tunable to turn this downshift on/off may be acceptable. Ethtool supports a number of tunable parameters now (such as rx_copybreak), there may be room for using something similar for boolean flags like these.

As indicated in the other email about speed downshift, we may want to utilize ethtool's ability to modify tunable parameters (small integer, boolean, values) and extend it to cover features offered by PHYs in a way that an user can dynamically turn these features on or off.

In fact, this looks a lot like netdev features (e.g: checksum offload), and there seems to be some commonality here between at least Marvell and Microsemi (for the faster link down reporting), so maybe we should start adding PHY features similar to netdev features?

Sure. 

I would like add one flag in phy_device structure:
u64 phy_features;

In phy_driver structure, i would like to add 2 function pointer as

int (*phy_featues_set)(struct phy_device *phydev);
int (*phy_featues_get)(struct phy_device *phydev);

All the PHY specific features i.e. Fast link failure -2, Downshift, Loopback etc
are the case in feature_set/feature_get functions.

Is it ok?

Sure. 

I would like add one flag in phy_device structure:
u64 phy_features;

In phy_driver structure, i would like to add 2 function pointer as

int (*phy_featues_set)(struct phy_device *phydev);
int (*phy_featues_get)(struct phy_device *phydev);

All the PHY specific features i.e. Fast link failure -2, Downshift, Loopback etc
are the case in feature_set/feature_get functions.

Is it ok?

Yes. I check the Broadcom wirespeed code. Downshift is similar to wirespeed.
But Broadcom wirespeed configuration in Ethernet controller.

This implementation shows little bit specific to Ethernet controller.
Do you have any PHY specific examples?

In another mail thread, you proposed similar to net device features.
Shall i implement that suggestion here?

Please follow how the ethertool features are implemented. So you need
to extend net/core/ethtool.c to pass these call down, etc.

Sure. I will do.
Do i need to change Ethtool application and submit along with 
downshift driver patch (i.e. ethtool.c, phy.c, cpsw.c and mscc.c changes) ?

Yes, please submit two patchset. One patchset for ethtool and its man
page and a second patchset for all the kernel changes.

     Thanks

Not sure if you are dropping this based on the discussion. Is this 
end-user controlled or a board property? Only the latter should be in 
DT.

This doesn't match the above. Also, 'vsc8531' should be the vendor 
prefix, not a part number. The existing properties are fine, but fix new 
ones.
