[PATCH net-next 0/2] pch_gbe: Minow fix and MinnowBoard support

[PATCH net-next 0/2] pch_gbe: Minow fix and MinnowBoard support

[Darren Hart]

Add support for the MinnowBoard in the pch_gbe driver. This was originally sent
to LKML as part of the MinnowBoard support series. That is now partially merged
and this version of the patch has been isolated from those changes and is now
completely self-contained.

Since the previous version:
    Whitespace cleanup
    Remove trailing period in messages
    Comment formatting (added a colon)
    Use devm_gpio_request_one
    Fix missing adapter->pdata NULL check in PHY
    Use netdev style comment blocks

[PATCH net-next 1/2] pch_gbe: Use PCH_GBE_PHY_REGS_LEN instead of 32

[Darren Hart]

Avoid using magic numbers when we have perfectly good defines just lying
around.

[PATCH net-next 2/2] pch_gbe: Add MinnowBoard support

[Darren Hart]

The MinnowBoard uses an AR803x PHY with the PCH GBE which requires
special handling. Use the MinnowBoard PCI Subsystem ID to detect this
and add a pci_device_id.driver_data structure and functions to handle
platform setup.

The AR803x does not implement the RGMII 2ns TX clock delay in the trace
routing nor via strapping. Add a detection method for the board and the
PHY and enable the TX clock delay via the registers.

This PHY will hibernate without link for 10 seconds. Ensure the PHY is
awake for probe and then disable hibernation. A future improvement would
be to convert pch_gbe to using PHYLIB and making sure we can wake the
PHY at the necessary times rather than permanently disabling it.

V3: Whitespace cleanup. Remove trailing period in messages.
    Comment formatting (added a colon).
    Use devm_gpio_request_one
    Fix missing adapter->pdata NULL check in PHY
    Use netdev style comment blocks

This is a /net patch and multiline comments are to be formatted as I did
here. checkpatch catches this and it was also added to the under-review

Hrm? I either incorporated or justified why I didn't for each bit of
feedback.... And looking through the archive on lkml.org, I only see my
second response to you and not the first which has all the detail....
which would explain why you didn't respond then. I have it in my sent
mail, but it doesn't appear to have gone out. I've resent and I'll
summarize here.

> I don't like the platform_init() approach here. 
> I think here should be plain GPIO line number.

I went around and around on this myself. I originally added several
callback functions to this privdata, but ultimately felt it was more
infrastructure than was necessary now, and if it became necessary (a
big "if" in my opinion) I could always augment that as a follow-on
patch.

> Here perhaps you check pdata and GPIO line number (let's say != -1)   
> and call GPIO request helper.

I was doing exactly this in local previous version, but I decided
against it for a few reasons:

o If I specify GPIO, I must also specify GPIO flags, GPIO label,
  GPIO assertion level, GPIO reset and rest timings (and that is
  assuming it's just a set, release, wait cycle).

o Setting all this in pdata makes very specific to resetting this
  specific PHY, while others may have any number of other methods or
  procedures. It also excludes other sorts of platform initialization
  which might necessary. Specifying GPIO here makes the interface overly
  specific in my opinion.

> you call it like pch_gbe_reset_by_gpio ?

We would need to include PHY in here as we are not resetting the MAC,
we are resetting the PHY. I think specifying it as being by gpio is
also overly restrictive. If you look at my two new functions (for tx
clock delay and hibernate) you can see an example of how we might go
about such a function (which indeed I had in a previous version as
pch_gbe_phy_physical_reset()). I dropped this as I felt it required too
many fields to be added to the pdata and I was better off with platform
specific init routines.

You've presented an alternative approach, but it isn't clear to me what
your reservations are with the one I took here. What are the problems
with it?

While the MinnowBoard will be expanding its use of ACPI, we do not
intend to rewrite existing drivers (such as this one) or firmware
platform code. We are looking only to describe the Lure's (daughter
cards) with additional tables.

Indeed. Fixed. I'll include when I resubmit after netdev opens.

Why so complicated? Just keep them as defaults inside function like you
did until we will have the actual board which requires those to be
altered.

My point is there should be no callback function like
pch_gbe_minnow_platform_init. It may be transformed to a more generic
helper which could be reused by an ACPI case as well.

But okay, it might be I missed the point. Are you going to provide an
ACPI tables for this IP or you just rely on PCI forever?

Again, what is wrong with ACPI, if ACPI could manage by itself that
stuff like specific GPIO lines. I assume ACPI will help a lot to avoid
this legacy approach with driver_data / callbacks and such things.

What did I miss?

And you perhaps have to use kernel_ulong_t instead of unsigned long.

The short answer here is that calling this a generic PHY reset routine
and passing in only the GPIO number embeds very platform specific data
and behavior as defaults which would have to abstracted if the routine
were to be used on any other board. The approach I take here is more
explicit in calling out what is platform specific data.

I do appreciate the suggestion and I did approach this as you suggest
initially, but as I worked through it, it became apparent (to me at
least) that the method presented here kept the required infrastructure
to a minimum while clearly identifying platform specific code and
behavior.

For this particular driver, I don't see a lot of value in introducing
new ACPI constructs. But more importantly, the release firmware does not
do so. If the firmware is updated in the future to deal with this, or if
someone else writes their own firmware (as many have expressed interest
in doing) we may have some follow-up to do here.

Nothing is wrong with ACPI. I don't disagree that this could be done
with ACPI, it just isn't currently.

Thanks for catching that and pointing me at the correct usage. Fixed in
V2.
