[PATCH 00/14] Add functional support for Gigabit Ethernet driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The DMAC and EMAC blocks of Gigabit Ethernet IP found on RZ/G2L SoC are
similar to the R-Car Ethernet AVB IP.

The Gigabit Ethernet IP consists of Ethernet controller (E-MAC), Internal
TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE)  and Dedicated Direct memory access controller
(DMAC).

With a few changes in the driver we can support both IPs.

This patch series is aims to add functional support for Gigabit Ethernet driver
by filling all the stubs except set_features.

set_feature patch will send as separate RFC patch along with rx_checksum
patch, as it needs detailed discussion related to HW checksum.

RFC->V1:
 * Removed patch#3 will send it as RFC
 * Removed rx_csum functionality from patch#7, will send it as RFC
 * Renamed "nc_queue" -> "nc_queues"
 * Separated the comment patch into 2 separate patches.
 * Documented PFRI register bit
 * Added Sergy's Rb tag

RFC changes:
 * used ALIGN macro for calculating the value for max_rx_len.
 * used rx_max_buf_size instead of rx_2k_buffers feature bit.
 * moved struct ravb_rx_desc *gbeth_rx_ring near to ravb_private::rx_ring
   and allocating it for 1 RX queue.
 * Started using gbeth_rx_ring instead of gbeth_rx_ring[q].
 * renamed ravb_alloc_rx_desc to ravb_alloc_rx_desc_rcar
 * renamed ravb_rx_ring_free to ravb_rx_ring_free_rcar
 * renamed ravb_rx_ring_format to ravb_rx_ring_format_rcar
 * renamed ravb_rcar_rx to ravb_rx_rcar
 * renamed "tsrq" variable
 * Updated the comments
