RFC PATCH 1/1 net: phy: phy drivers should not set SUPPORTED_Pause or SUPPORTED_Asym_Pause

Pause frames are a feature that is supported by the MAC. It is the MAC that generates the frames and that processes them. Thy PHY can only be configured to allow them to pass. Therefore, pause frame support in the PHY should only be enabled if the MAC wants it enabled. It should not be forced on all the time.

Pause frames are a feature that is supported by the MAC. It is the MAC that generates the frames and that processes them. Thy PHY can only be configured to allow them to pass. Therefore, pause frame support in the PHY should only be enabled if the MAC wants it enabled. It should not be forced on all the time.

So in premise, this is good, and is exactly what I have in mind for the series that I am cooking, but if we apply this alone, without a change in drivers/net/phy/phy.c which adds SUPPORTED_Pause | SUPPORTED_AsymPause to phydev->features, we are basically breaking the Ethernet MAC drivers that don't explicitly override phydev->features and yet rely on that to get flow control to work.

That's what I figured, but I wasn't sure how to handle that. However, isn't the ability to pass pause frames a feature that some PHYs do not have? That is, does every PHY support bits 10 and 11 in register 4?

The standard (IEEE Std 802.3-2008) describes this as the Auto-negotiation advertisement register and these bits are part of the Technology ability field register. These two bits A5 (PAUSE operation for full duplex links) and A6 (Asymetric PAUSE operation for full duplex links) have no cabling requirement, and earlier the paragraph mentions this is to be resolved by the "management" entity, so I don't think the PHY has any business in that other than reflecting what the MAC is capable of doing towards the link partner, but I could be reading the specification incorrectly.

Fair enough. I'll post a V2 patch that enables those bits in phy.c.

On a side note, is there any reason for the MAC to ever disable support for accepting pause frames? If the PHY is configured to not advertise support for receiving pause frames, then does it matter if the MAC is configured to accept them? The MAC would never receive such a frame.

If so, then I can modify my other patch (net: qcom/emac: enable flow control if requested) to always set RXFC, and have it set TXFC only if the PHY will transmit pause frames.

Can you tell me where I should set the SUPPORTED_Pause and SUPPORTED_AsymPause flags? I have a two candidates:

1. The settings[] array. Add these flags to each entry.

2. In phy_sanitize_settings(). Add

	phydev->supported |= SUPPORTED_Pause | SUPPORTED_AsymPause;

at the end of the function.

I'm still don't understand 100% how these flags really work, because I just can't shake the feeling that they should not be set for every phy.
If these flags are supposed to be turned on universally, then why are
they even an option?

So I've been giving this more thought. Can you tell me if the following is correct:

1) PHY drivers and/or phylib sets the SUPPORTED_Pause | SUPPORTED_AsymPause bits in phydev->supported. This indicates that the PHY supports pause frames.

2) The MAC driver checks phydev->supported before it calls phy_start(). If (SUPPORTED_Pause | SUPPORTED_AsymPause) is set, then it sets those
bits in phydev->advertising if it wants to enable pause frame support.

3) When the link state changes, the MAC driver checks phydev->advertising, and if the bits are set, then it enables those features in the MAC.

Almost, we need to see what the link partner advertised, by looking at phydev->pause / phydev->asym_pause and checking the local knobs whether flow control can be enabled, but other than that, this looks correct to me.

Agreed.

So I'm still not sure *where* phylib should set the bits in phydev->supported. I previously thought that phy_sanitize_settings() would be a candidate, but that function is called only when autonegotiation is disabled.

So the only thing I can think of is to do this:

/* A mapping of all SUPPORTED settings to speed/duplex */

static const struct phy_setting settings[] = {
	{
		.speed = SPEED_10000,
		.duplex = DUPLEX_FULL,

- .setting = SUPPORTED_10000baseKR_Full,
+ .setting = SUPPORTED_10000baseKR_Full |
+ SUPPORTED_Pause | SUPPORTED_Asym_Pause,

... for all of the entries in settings[]

But this seems excessive, and I don't know if all of these SPEED_xxx standards actually support pause frames.

Yes, that's what I meant to write. Fortunately, my EMAC driver already does this.

You could set these bits in phy_probe() and later let the phy_sanitize_settings() make sure that these bits do not get advertised unless we have a full duplex link.
