Intel platforms’ integrated Gigabit Ethernet controllers support
2.5Gbps mode statically using BIOS programming. In the current
implementation, the BIOS menu provides an option to select between
10/100/1000Mbps and 2.5Gbps modes. Based on the selection, the BIOS
programs the Phase Lock Loop (PLL) registers. The BIOS also read the
TSN lane registers from Flexible I/O Adapter (FIA) block and provided
10/100/1000Mbps/2.5Gbps information to the stmmac driver. But
auto-negotiation between 10/100/1000Mbps and 2.5Gbps is not allowed.
The new proposal is to support auto-negotiation between 10/100/1000Mbps
and 2.5Gbps . Auto-negotiation between 10, 100, 1000Mbps will use
in-band auto negotiation. Auto-negotiation between 10/100/1000Mbps and
2.5Gbps will work as the following proposed flow, the stmmac driver reads
the PHY link status registers then identifies the negotiated speed.
Based on the speed stmmac driver will identify TSN lane registers from
FIA then send IPC command to the Power Management controller (PMC)
through PMC driver/API. PMC will act as a proxy to programs the
PLL registers.
changelog:
v1 -> v2:
- Add static to pmc_lpm_modes declaration
- Add cur_link_an_mode to the kernel doc
- Combine 2 commits i.e. "stmmac: intel: Separate driver_data of ADL-N
from TGL" and "net: stmmac: Add 1G/2.5G auto-negotiation
support for ADL-N" into 1 commit.
v2 -> v3:
- Create `pmc_ipc.c` file for `intel_pmc_ipc()` function and
allocate the file in `arch/x86/platform/intel/` directory.
- Update phylink's AN mode during phy interface change and
not exposing phylink's AN mode into phylib.
