Merge branch 'net-ipa-ipa-v4-5-aggregation-and-qtime'
Alex Elder says: ==================== net: ipa: IPA v4.5 aggregation and Qtime This series updates some IPA register definitions that change in substantive ways for IPA v4.5. One register defines parameters used by an endpoint to aggregate multiple packets into a buffer. The size and position of most fields in that register have changed with this new hardware version, and consequently the function that programs it needs to be done a bit differently. The first patch takes care of this. Second, IPA v4.5 introduces a unified time keeping component to be used in several places by the IPA hardware. A main clock divider provides a fundamental tick rate, and several timestamped features now define their granularity based on that. There is also a set of "pulse generators" derived from the main tick, and these are used to implement timers used for aggregation and head-of-line block avoidance. The second patch adds IPA register updates to support Qtime along with its configuration, and the last two patches configure the timers that use it. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201130233712.29113-1-elder@linaro.orgSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
