[PATCH v8 net-next 00/17] net: qualcomm: add QCA7000 UART driver

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

 



The Qualcomm QCA7000 HomePlug GreenPHY supports two interfaces:
UART and SPI. This patch series adds the missing support for UART.

This driver based on the Qualcomm code [1], but contains some changes:
* use random MAC address per default
* use net_device_stats from device
* share frame decoding between SPI and UART driver
* improve error handling
* reimplement tty_wakeup with work queue (based on slcan)
* use new serial device bus instead of ldisc

The patches 1 - 3 are just for clean up and are not related to
the UART support. Patch 4 adds SET_NETDEV_DEV() to qca_spi.
Patches 5 - 16 prepare the existing QCA7000 code for UART support.
The last patch contains the new driver.

The code itself has been tested on a Freescale i.MX28 board and
a Raspberry Pi Zero.

Changes in v8:
  * add necessary header includes to qca_7k.c in order to reflect
    dependencies

Changes in v7:
  * fix race between tx workqueue and device deregistration (reported by Lino)

Changes in v6:
  * rebase to current linux-next
  * use SET_NETDEV_DEV() for qca_spi and qca_uart
  * rename binding to qca,qca7000.txt
  * use qca,qca7000 compatible for both driver
  * handle error cases in qca_uart_probe properly
  * fix skb leak in error path of qcauart_netdev_init
  * use dev_kfree_skb_any instead of kfree_skb
  * take care of tx_work on close / remove
  * use devm_kmalloc for tx buffer
  * minor cleanups

Changes in v5:
  * rebase to current linux-next
  * fix alignment issues in rx path
  * fix buffer overrun with big ethernet frames
  * fix init of UART decoding fsm
  * add device UART settings to Kconfig help
  * add current-speed to slave-device binding
  * merge SPI and UART binding document
  * rename qca_common to qca_7k_common
  * drop patch for retrieving UART settings
  * several cleanups

Changes in v4:
  * rebase to current linux-next
  * use parameter -M for git format-patch
  * change order of local variables where possible
  * implement basic serdev support (without hardware flow control)

Changes in v3:
  * rebase to current net-next

Changes in v2:
  * fix build issue by using netif_trans_update() and dev_trans_start()
