[PATCH net-next v1 1/2] ethtool: provide UAPI for PHY Signal Quality Index (SQI)

[PATCH net-next v1 1/2] ethtool: provide UAPI for PHY Signal Quality Index (SQI)

[Oleksij Rempel]

Signal Quality Index is a mandatory value required by "OPEN Alliance
SIG" for the 100Base-T1 PHYs [1]. This indicator can be used for cable
integrity diagnostic and investigating other noise sources and
implement by at least two vendors: NXP[2] and TI[3].

IIRC you need to update table markers (the "===" lines) so that cell
text does not overflow. Did you check it with "make htmldocs"?

The shift by one between actual SQI values and attribute values is IMHO
quite confusing for anyone looking at the messages. As the UNSUPPORTED
value is only internal (the attribute is omitted in reply message in
such case), perhaps we could use int for linkstate_reply_data::sqi and
e.g. -1 for "unsupported". Then we could use native 0-7 range
(SQI_STATE_8=9 is probably a mistake).

I'm also a bit worried about hardcoding the 0-7 value range. While I
understand that it's defined by standard for 100base-T1, we my want to
provide such information for other devices in the future. I tried to
search if there is something like that for 1000base-T1 and found this:

  http://www.sigent.cn/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/TE-1400_User-Manual_1000BASE-T1-EMC-Converter_v3.3.pdf

The screenshot on page 10 shows "SQI Value: 00015". It's probably not
standardized (yet?) but it seems to indicate we may expect other devices
providing SQI information with different value range.

Would it make sense to add ETHTOOL_A_LINKSTATE_SQI_MAX attribute telling
userspace what the range is?

You should check phydev for NULL first.

Nice, screenshot based reverse engineering :)

what maximal range do we wont to export? u8, u16 or u32?

sounds plausible.

As the userspace API is "cast in stone" and there no actual space saved
by using u8 or u16 due to padding (attributes are always padded to
a multiple of 32 bits), I would suggest to go with u32 in uapi.
Internally, we can use a smaller type for now if it is more convenient.

Hi Oleksij

With a multi part patch set, please always include a cover note,
describing what the patchset as a whole does.

You are not doing any locking here, which you should. Due to modules
vs built in, it can be a bit tricky getting this right. Take a look at
how ethtool ioctl.c uses phy_ethtool_get_stats() and that inline
function itself.

You are only providing access via netlink ethtool? There is no ioctl
method to get this. If so, i wonder if common.c is the correct place
for this, or if it should be moved into linkstate.c. You can then drop
the __.

Michal?
