The current steps that are performed when the trust state changes, if the channels are active: 1. The trust state is changed in hardware. 2. The new inline mode is calculated. 3. If the new inline mode is different, the channels are recreated using the new inline mode. This approach has some issues: 1. There is a time gap between changing trust state in hardware and starting sending enough inline headers (the latter happens after recreation of channels). It leads to failed transmissions and error CQEs. 2. If the new channels fail to open, we'll be left with the old ones, but the hardware will be configured for the new trust state, so the interval when we can see TX errors never ends. This patch fixes the issues above by moving the trust state change into the preactivate hook that runs during the recreation of the channels when no channels are active, so it eliminates the gap of partially applied configuration. If the inline mode doesn't change with the change of the trust state, the channels won't be recreated, just like before this patch.

Sometimes the preactivate hook of mlx5e_safe_switch_channels needs more parameters than just struct mlx5e_priv *. For such cases, a new parameter (void *context) is added to preactivate hooks. Some of the existing normal functions are currently used as preactivate callbacks. To avoid adding an extra unused parameter, they are wrapped in an automatic way using the MLX5E_DEFINE_PREACTIVATE_WRAPPER_CTX macro.

Currently mlx5e_switch_priv_channels expects that the preactivate hook doesn't fail, however, it can fail, because it may set hardware parameters. This commit addresses this issue and provides a way to recover from failures of the preactivate hook: the old channels are not closed until the point where nothing can fail anymore, so in case preactivate fails, the driver can roll back the old channels and activate them again.

Maxim Mikityanskiy authored
Currently, mlx5e notifies the kernel about the number of queues and sets the default XPS cpumasks when channels are activated. This implementation has several corner cases, in which the kernel may not be updated on time, or XPS cpumasks may be reset when not directly touched by the user. This commit fixes these corner cases to match the following expected behavior: 1. The number of queues always corresponds to the number of channels configured. 2. XPS cpumasks are set to driver's defaults on netdev attach. 3. XPS cpumasks set by user are not reset, unless the number of channels changes. If the number of channels changes, they are reset to driver's defaults. (In general case, when the number of channels increases or decreases, it's not possible to guess how to convert the current XPS cpumasks to work with the new number of channels, so we let the user reconfigure it if they change the number of channels.) XPS cpumasks are no longer stored per channel. Only one temporary cpumask is used. The old stored cpumasks didn't reflect the user's changes and were not used after applying them. A scratchpad area is added to struct mlx5e_priv. As cpumask_var_t requires allocation, and the preactivate hook can't fail, we need to preallocate the temporary cpumask in advance. It's stored in the scratchpad.

mlx5e_ethtool_set_channels updates the indirection table before switching to the new channels. If the switch fails, the indirection table is new, but the channels are old, which is wrong. Fix it by using the preactivate hook of mlx5e_safe_switch_channels to update the indirection table at the stage when nothing can fail anymore. As the code that updates the indirection table is now encapsulated into a new function, use that function in the attach flow when the driver has to reduce the number of channels, and prepare the code for the next commit.

mlx5e_safe_switch_channels accepts a callback to be called before activating new channels. It is intended to configure some hardware parameters in cases where channels are recreated because some configuration has changed. Recently, this callback has started being used to update the driver's internal MLX5E_STATE_XDP_OPEN flag, and the following patches also intend to use this callback for software preparations. This patch renames the hw_modify callback to preactivate, so that the name fits better.

We shall always extract channel index out of the txq, regardless of the relation between txq_ix and num channels. The extraction is always valid, as if txq is smaller than number of channels, txq_ix == priv->txq2sq[txq_ix]->ch_ix. By doing so, we can remove an if clause from the select queue method, and have one flow for all packets.

Jiri Pirko says: ==================== mlxsw: Implement ACL-dropped packets identification mlxsw hardware allows to insert a ACL-drop action with a value defined by user that would be later on passed with a dropped packet. To implement this, use the existing TC action cookie and pass it to the driver. As the cookie format coming down from TC and the mlxsw HW cookie format is different, do the mapping of these two using idr and rhashtable. The cookie is passed up from the HW through devlink_trap_report() to drop_monitor code. A new metadata type is used for that. Example: $ tc qdisc add dev enp0s16np1 clsact $ tc filter add dev enp0s16np1 ingress protocol ip pref 10 flower skip_sw dst_ip 192.168.1.2 action drop cookie 3b45fa38c8 ^^^^^^^^^^ $ devlink trap set pci/0000:00:10.0 trap acl action trap $ dropwatch Initializing null lookup method dropwatch> set hw true setting hardware drops monitoring to 1 dropwatch> set alertmode packet Setting alert mode Alert mode successfully set dropwatch> start Enabling monitoring...

Jeremy Linton says: ==================== Add ACPI bindings to the genet This patch series allows the BCM GENET, as used on the RPi4, to attach when booted in an ACPI environment. The DSDT entry to trigger this is seen below. Of note, the first patch adds a small extension to the mdio layer which allows drivers to find the mii_bus without firmware assistance. The fifth patch in the set retrieves the MAC address from the umac registers rather than carrying it directly in the DSDT. This of course requires the firmware to pre-program it, so we continue to fall back on a random one if it appears to be garbage. v1 -> v2: fail on missing phy-mode property replace phy-mode internal property read string with device_get_phy_mode() equivalent rework mac address detection logic so that it merges the acpi/DT case into device_get_mac_address() allowing _DSD mac address properties. some commit messages justifying why phy_find_first() isn't the worst choice for this driver. + Device (ETH0) + { + Name (_HID, "BCM6E4E") + Name (_UID, 0) + Name (_CCA, 0x0) + Method (_STA) + { + Return (0xf) + } + Method (_CRS, 0x0, Serialized) + { + Name (RBUF, ResourceTemplate () + { + Memory32Fixed (ReadWrite, 0xFd580000, 0x10000, ) + Interrupt (ResourceConsumer, Level, ActiveHigh, Exclusive) { 0xBD } + Interrupt (ResourceConsumer, Level, ActiveHigh, Exclusive) { 0xBE } + }) + Return (RBUF) + } + Name (_DSD, Package () { + ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"), + Package () { + Package () { "phy-mode", "rgmii-rxid" }, + } + }) + } ==================== Tested-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

If one types "failed to get enet clock" or similar into google there are ~370k hits. The vast majority are people debugging problems unrelated to this adapter, or bragging about their rpi's. Further, the DT clock bindings here are optional. Given that its not a fatal situation with common DT based systems, lets reduce the severity so people aren't seeing failure messages in everyday operation.

ARM/ACPI machines should utilize self describing hardware when possible. The MAC address on the BCMGENET can be read from the adapter if a full featured firmware has already programmed it. Lets try using the address already programmed, if it appears to be valid. It should be noted that while we move the macaddr logic below the clock and power logic in the driver, none of that code will ever be active in an ACPI environment as the device will be attached to the acpi power domain, and brought to full power with all clocks enabled immediately before the device probe routine is called. One side effect of the above tweak is that while its now possible to read the MAC address via _DSD properties, it should be avoided.

The rpi4 is capable of booting in ACPI mode with the latest edk2-platform commits. As such it would be helpful if the genet platform device were usable. To achieve this we add a new MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE, and convert a few dt specific methods to their generic device_ calls. Until the next patch, ACPI based machines will fallback on random mac addresses.

The unimac mdio driver falls back to scanning the entire bus if its given an appropriate mask. In ACPI mode we expect that the system is well behaved and conforms to recent versions of the specification. We then utilize phy_find_first(), and phy_connect_direct() to find and attach to the discovered phy during net_device open. While its apparently possible to build a genet based device with multiple phys on a single mdio bus, this works for current machines. Further, this driver makes a number of assumptions about the platform device, mac, mdio and phy all being 1:1. Lastly, It also avoids having to create references across the ACPI namespace hierarchy.

Jeremy Linton authored
It appears most ethernet drivers follow one of two main strategies for mdio bus/phy management. A monolithic model where the net driver itself creates, probes and uses the phy, and one where an external mdio/phy driver instantiates the mdio bus/phy and the net driver only attaches to a known phy. Usually in this latter model the phys are discovered via DT relationships or simply phy name/address hardcoding. This is a shame because modern well behaved mdio buses are self describing and can be probed. The mdio layer itself is fully capable of this, yet there isn't a clean way for a standalone net driver to attach and enumerate the discovered devices. This is because outside of of_mdio_find_bus() there isn't a straightforward way to acquire the mii_bus pointer. So, lets add a mdio_find_bus which can return the mii_bus based only on its name.
