[PATCH net-next v4 00/11] Enable SGMII and 2500BASEX interface mode switching for Intel platforms

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

 



From: Choong Yong Liang <yong.liang.choong@xxxxxxxxx>

At the start of link initialization, the 'allow_switch_interface' flag is
set to true. Based on 'allow_switch_interface' flag, the interface mode is
configured to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA within the 'phylink_validate_phy'
function. This setting allows all ethtool link modes that are supported and
advertised will be published. Then interface mode switching occurs based on
the selection of different link modes.

During the interface mode change, the 'phylink_major_config' function
will be triggered in phylink. The modification of the following functions
will be triggered to support the switching between SGMII and 2500BASEX
interfaces for the Intel platform.

- mac_get_pcs_neg_mode: A new function that selects the PCS negotiation
  mode according to the interface mode.
- mac_select_pcs: Destroys and creates a new PCS according to the
  interface mode.
- mac_finish: Configures the SerDes according to the interface mode.

With the above changes, the code will work as follows during the
interface mode change. The PCS and PCS negotiation mode will be selected
for PCS configuration according to the interface mode. Then, the MAC
driver will perform SerDes configuration on the 'mac_finish' based on the
interface mode. During the SerDes configuration, the selected interface
mode will identify TSN lane registers from FIA and then send IPC commands
to the Power Management Controller (PMC) through the PMC driver/API.
PMC will act as a proxy to program the PLL registers.

Change log:
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.
 
 v3 -> v4:
 - Introduce `allow_switch_interface` flag to have all ethtool 
 link modes that are supported and advertised will be published.
 - Introduce `mac_get_pcs_neg_mode` function that selects the PCS 
 negotiation mode according to the interface mode.
 - Remove pcs-xpcs.c changes and handle pcs during `mac_select_pcs`
 function
 - Configure SerDes base on the interface on `mac_finish` function.
