[PATCH] net: ethernet: mvneta: add support for 2.5G DRSGMII mode

[PATCH] net: ethernet: mvneta: add support for 2.5G DRSGMII mode

[Jan Luebbe]

The Marvell MVNETA Ethernet controller supports a 2.5 Gbps SGMII mode
called DRSGMII.

This patch adds a corresponding phy-mode string 'drsgmii' and parses it
from DT. The MVNETA then configures the SERDES protocol value
accordingly.

It was successfully tested on a MV78460 connected to a FPGA.

Hi Jan

So this sets the PHY to 2.5Gbps. What about the MAC? Currently,
mvneta_adjust_link() knows about SPEED_1000 and SPEED_100. Does it now
need to know about SPEED_2500? mvneta_ethtool_set_link_ksettings()?

Thanks

It works without any other changes. ;)

Initially I looked at adding a SPEED_2500, but I wasn't sure which code
would need to handle the new value. Would the path from the ethtool
ioctl to the driver be enough (mvneta_ethtool_set_link_ksettings() as
you said)?

Regards,
Jan

You have this connected to an FPGA? Do you have a traditional PHY in
the FPGA? Or are you implementing something more like an Ethernet
switch?

I don't know this driver too well, but what often happens is the PHY
performs autoneg and the phylib then calls the adjust_link function to
set the MAC to what has been negotiated. So if you have a PHY attached
which can do 2.5Ghz, you might be seeing calls to adjust_link with
SPEED_2500.

What does ethtool <devname> show?

Thanks
     Andrew

I still haven't seen a sufficient explanation as to why this change
works without any explicit MAC programming changes to this driver.

That really needs to be explained before I will apply this patch.

Thanks.

I'll need to recheck this with the documentation and will also check
what/if changes need to be done for ethtool and adjust_link as Andrew
Lunn mentioned. So in any case there will be a v2 as soon as I figure
out those details.

Thanks,
Jan

Hi Sascha

Is this really overclocked SGMII, or 2500BaseX? How does it differ
from 2500BaseX, which mvneta already supports?

Also, does comphy need extensions to support this?

I think it is overclocked SGMII or 2500BaseX depending on the Port MAC
Control Register0 PortType setting bit.
As said to Russell we have a fixed link so nobody really cares if it's
SGMII or 2500BaseX. This boils down the patch to fixing the Serdes
configuration setting for 2500BaseX.

I think it is overclocked SGMII or 2500BaseX depending on the Port MAC
Control Register0 PortType setting bit.

Hi Sascha

Does 2500BaseX work for your use case? Since this drsmgii mode is not
well defined, i would prefer to not add it, unless it is really
needed.

Digging around, this is Armada XP?  Which SoCs is this mode supported?
There's no mention of DRSGMII in the A38x nor A37xx documentation which
are later than Armada XP.

What exactly is "drsgmii"?  It can't be "double-rate" SGMII because that
would give you 2Gbps max instead of the 1Gbps, but this gives 2.5Gbps,
so I'm really not sure using "drsgmii" is a good idea.  It may be what
Marvell call it, but we really need to know if there's some vendor
neutral way to refer to it.

Nevertheless, adding a new interface mode needs properly documenting to
describe exactly what it is - see Documentation/networking/phy.rst, the
section "PHY interface modes".  The above point about "what is this"
illustrates why we need these documented.

It's an Armada XP MV78460 in my case. I have no idea what other SoCs
this mode is supported on.

The abbreviation really is for "Double Rated SGMII". It seems it has 2.5
times the clock rate than ordinary SGMII. Another term I found is HSGMII
(High serial gigabit media-independent interface) which also has
2.5Gbps.

Anyway, I just learned from the paragraph you added to
Documentation/networking/phy.rst that 1000BASEX differs from SGMII in
the format of the control word. As we have a fixed link to a FPGA the
control word seems to be unused, at least the Port MAC Control Register0
PortType setting bit doesn't change anything. So I can equally well use
the existing 2500BASEX mode.
