cover net: dsa: always use phylink

Mostly the same as the previous RFC, except:

1) incldues the phylink_validate_mask_caps() function
2) has Marek's idea of searching the supported_interfaces bitmap for the fastest interface we can use
3) includes a final patch to add a print which will be useful to hear from people testing it.

Some of the questions from the original RFC remain though, so I've included that text below. I'm guessing as they remain unanswered that no one has any opinions on them?

Hi,

Currently, the core DSA code conditionally uses phylink for CPU and DSA ports depending on whether the firmware specifies a fixed-link or a PHY. If either of these are specified, then phylink is used for these ports, otherwise phylink is not, and we rely on the DSA drivers to "do the right thing". However, this detail is not mentioned in the DT binding, but Andrew has said that this behaviour has always something that DSA wants.

mv88e6xxx has had support for this for a long time with its "SPEED_MAX" thing, which I recently reworked to make use of the mac_capabilities in preparation to solving this more fully.

This series is an experiment to solve this properly, and it does this in two steps.

The first step consists of the first two patches. Phylink needs to know the PHY interface mode that is being used so it can (a) pass the right mode into the MAC/PCS etc and (b) know the properties of the link and therefore which speeds can be supported across it.

In order to achieve this, the DSA phylink_get_caps() method has an extra argument added to it so that DSA drivers can report the interface mode that they will be using for this port back to the core DSA code, thereby allowing phylink to be initialised with the correct interface mode.

Note that this can only be used for CPU and DSA ports as "user" ports need a different behaviour - they rely on getting the interface mode from phylib, which will only happen if phylink is initialised with PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA. Unfortunately, changing this behaviour is likely to cause widespread regressions.

Obvious questions:
1. Should phylink_get_caps() be augmented in this way, or should it be a separate method?

2. DSA has traditionally used "interface mode for the maximum supported speed on this port" where the interface mode is programmable (via its internal port_max_speed_mode() method) but this is only present for a few of the sub-drivers. Is reporting the current interface mode correct where this method is not implemented?

The second step is to introduce a function that allows phylink to be reconfigured after creation time to operate at max-speed fixed-link mode for the PHY interface mode, also using the MAC capabilities to determine the speed and duplex mode we should be using.

Obvious questions:
1. Should we be allowing half-duplex for this?
2. If we do allow half-duplex, should we prefer fastest speed over duplex setting, or should we prefer fastest full-duplex speed over any half-duplex?
3. How do we sanely switch DSA from its current behaviour to always using phylink for these ports without breakage - this is the difficult one, because it's not obvious which drivers have been coded to either work around this quirk of the DSA implementation. For example, if we start forcing the link down before calling dsa_port_phylink_create(), and we then fail to set max-fixed-link, then the CPU/DSA port is going to fail, and we're going to have lots of regressions.

Please look at the patches and make suggestions on how we can proceed to clean up this quirk of DSA.

RFC PATCH 1/6 net: dsa: add support for retrieving the interface mode

DSA port bindings allow for an optional phy interface mode. When an interface mode is not specified, DSA uses the NA interface mode type.

However, phylink needs to know the parameters of the link, and this will become especially important when using phylink for ports that are devoid of all properties except the required "reg" property, so that phylink can select the maximum supported link settings. Without knowing the interface mode, phylink can't truely know the maximum link speed.

Update the prototype for the phylink_get_caps method to allow drivers to report this information back to DSA, and update all DSA implementations function declarations to cater for this change. No code is added to the implementations.

RFC PATCH 2/6 net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: report the default interface mode for the port

In reply to Russell King (Oracle)

Report the maximum speed interface mode for the port, or if we don't have that information, the hardware configured interface mode for the port.

This allows phylink to know which interface mode CPU and DSA ports are operating, which will be necessary when we want to select the maximum speed for the port (required for such ports without a PHY or fixed-link specified in firmware.)

RFC PATCH 3/6 net: phylink: split out interface to caps translation

In reply to Russell King (Oracle)

phylink_get_linkmodes() translates the interface mode into a set of speed and duplex capabilities which are masked with the MAC modes to then derive the link modes that are available.

Split out the initial transformation into a new function phylink_interface_to_caps(), which will be useful when setting the maximum fixed link speed.

RFC PATCH 4/6 net: phylink: add phylink_set_max_fixed_link()

In reply to Russell King (Oracle)

Add a function for DSA to use to configure phylink, in the absence of any other configuration, to a fixed link operating at the maximum supported link speed.

This is needed so we can support phylink usage on CPU and DSA ports.

RFC PATCH 5/6 net: dsa: always use phylink for CPU and DSA ports

In reply to Russell King (Oracle)

Currently, we only use phylink for CPU and DSA ports if there is a fixed-link specification, or a PHY specified. The reason for this behaviour is that when neither is specified, there was no way for phylink to know the link parameters.

Now that we have phylink_set_max_link_speed() (which has become possible through the addition of mac_capabilities) we now have the ability to know the maximum link speed for a specific link, and can now use phylink for this case as well.

However, we need DSA drivers to report the interface mode being used on these ports so that we can select a maximum speed appropriate for the interface mode that hardware may have configured for the port.

This is especially important with the conversion of DSA drivers to phylink_pcs, as the PCS code only gets called if we are using phylink for the port.

Re: [PATCH RFC net-next 1/6] net: dsa: add support for retrieving the interface mode

In reply to Russell King (Oracle)
Quoted 10 lines · On Wed, 29 Jun 2022 13:51:22 +0100 "Russell King (Oracle)"…

DSA port bindings allow for an optional phy interface mode. When an interface mode is not specified, DSA uses the NA interface mode type.

However, phylink needs to know the parameters of the link, and this will become especially important when using phylink for ports that are devoid of all properties except the required "reg" property, so that phylink can select the maximum supported link settings. Without knowing the interface mode, phylink can't truely know the maximum link speed.

Quoted 6 lines

Update the prototype for the phylink_get_caps method to allow drivers to report this information back to DSA, and update all DSA implementations function declarations to cater for this change. No code is added to the implementations.

Report the maximum speed interface mode for the port, or if we don't have that information, the hardware configured interface mode for the port.

This allows phylink to know which interface mode CPU and DSA ports are operating, which will be necessary when we want to select the maximum speed for the port (required for such ports without a PHY or fixed-link specified in firmware.)

Will this work correctly for 6185? That one has different array, mv88e6185_phy_interface_modes.

Maybe instead we need to send the default_interface parameter to chip->info->ops->phylink_get_caps() ?

phylink_get_linkmodes() translates the interface mode into a set of speed and duplex capabilities which are masked with the MAC modes to then derive the link modes that are available.

Split out the initial transformation into a new function phylink_interface_to_caps(), which will be useful when setting the maximum fixed link speed.

So this is the one that may break other drivers?

It's the one that I'm most concerned about breakage happening, because the other drivers won't be setting the default interface for the port, which means if they're taking advantage of this "defaulting" feature, this patch will break them.

The original code just did nothing when this "defaulting" feature was used - it didn't call the DSA phylink_mac_link_down() op, and didn't register with phylink. The phylink_mac_link_down() there was to ensure that the ports are in a link-down state prior to setting up phylink, because that's what phylink expects.

The problem comes is that once we've called phylink_mac_link_down(), there isn't a way to back out of that without knowing the interface mode, speed, duplex etc - which is the problem with this defaulting feature, none of that is specified in DT, it can only come from the drivers.

Note that the mv88e6xxx series I posted earlier depends on getting this problem sorted - if we don't, I can't send the mv88e6xxx pcs conversion because mv88e6xxx boards that _do_ make use of this defaulting feature will break (and there are a number that do make use of it.)

If I send this RFC series (minus the top patch) then all the drivers that make use of this defualting feature that aren't mv88e6xxx will probably break - but I've no idea which make use of this feature because it's not documented. It's not really documented in the DT binding either, it's just something that Andrew "knows about", mv88e6xxx makes use of, and Andrew has suggested to some other DSA driver authors.

This absolutely needs Andrew's involvement.
