[PATCH v2 net-next 0/3] Better PHYLINK compliance for SJA1105 DSA

[PATCH v2 net-next 0/3] Better PHYLINK compliance for SJA1105 DSA

[Vladimir Oltean]

After discussing with Russell King, it appears this driver is making a
few confusions and not performing some checks for consistent operation.

Changes in v2:
- Removed redundant print in the phylink_validate callback (in 2/3).

Vladimir Oltean (3):
  net: dsa: sja1105: Don't check state->link in phylink_mac_config
  net: dsa: sja1105: Check for PHY mode mismatches with what PHYLINK
    reports
  net: dsa: sja1105: Mark in-band AN modes not supported for PHYLINK

[PATCH v2 net-next 1/3] net: dsa: sja1105: Don't check state->link in phylink_mac_config

[Vladimir Oltean]

It has been pointed out that PHYLINK can call mac_config only to update
the phy_interface_type and without knowing what the AN results are.

Experimentally, when this was observed to happen, state->link was also
unset, and therefore was used as a proxy to ignore this call. However it
is also suggested that state->link is undefined for this callback and
should not be relied upon.

So let the previously-dead codepath for SPEED_UNKNOWN be called, and
update the comment to make sure the MAC's behavior is sane.

[PATCH v2 net-next 2/3] net: dsa: sja1105: Check for PHY mode mismatches with what PHYLINK reports

[Vladimir Oltean]

PHYLINK being designed with PHYs in mind that can change MII protocol,
for correct operation it is necessary to ensure that the PHY interface
mode stays the same (otherwise clear the supported bit mask, as
required).

Because this is just a hypothetical situation for now, we don't bother
to check whether we could actually support the new PHY interface mode.
Actually we could modify the xMII table, reset the switch and send an
updated static configuration, but adding that would just be dead code.

[PATCH v2 net-next 3/3] net: dsa: sja1105: Mark in-band AN modes not supported for PHYLINK

[Vladimir Oltean]

We need a better way to signal this, perhaps in phylink_validate, but
for now just print this error message as guidance for other people
looking at this driver's code while trying to rework PHYLINK.
