net: phy: add helpers to handle sfp phy connect/disconnect

2024-08-23T12:04:34Z

There are a few PHY drivers that can handle SFP modules through their sfp_upstream_ops. Introduce Phylib helpers to keep track of connected SFP PHYs in a netdevice's namespace, by adding the SFP PHY to the upstream PHY's netdev's namespace. By doing so, these SFP PHYs can be enumerated and exposed to users, which will be able to use their capabilities.

net: phy: Introduce ethernet link topology representation

2024-08-23T12:04:34Z

Link topologies containing multiple network PHYs attached to the same net_device can be found when using a PHY as a media converter for use with an SFP connector, on which an SFP transceiver containing a PHY can be used. With the current model, the transceiver's PHY can't be used for operations such as cable testing, timestamping, macsec offload, etc. The reason being that most of the logic for these configuration, coming from either ethtool netlink or ioctls tend to use netdev->phydev, which in multi-phy systems will reference the PHY closest to the MAC. Introduce a numbering scheme allowing to enumerate PHY devices that belong to any netdev, which can in turn allow userspace to take more precise decisions with regard to each PHY's configuration. The numbering is maintained per-netdev, in a phy_device_list. The numbering works similarly to a netdevice's ifindex, with identifiers that are only recycled once INT_MAX has been reached. This prevents races that could occur between PHY listing and SFP transceiver removal/insertion. The identifiers are assigned at phy_attach time, as the numbering depends on the netdevice the phy is attached to. The PHY index can be re-used for PHYs that are persistent.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1. Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes in here are: - platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases to get here, finally!) - Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core interactions. It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver in rust" type of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the phy rust drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on which others can start their work. There is still a long way to go here before we have a multitude of rust drivers being added, but it's a great first step. - driver core const api changes. This reached across all bus types, and there are some fix-ups for some not-common bus types that linux-next and 0-day testing shook out. This work is being done to help make the rust bindings more safe, as well as the C code, moving toward the end-goal of allowing us to put driver structures into read-only memory. We aren't there yet, but are getting closer. - minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection - arch_topology minor changes - other minor driver core cleanups All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no reported problems" * tag 'driver-core-6.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (55 commits) ARM: sa1100: make match function take a const pointer sysfs/cpu: Make crash_hotplug attribute world-readable dio: Have dio_bus_match() callback take a const * zorro: make match function take a const pointer driver core: module: make module_[add|remove]_driver take a const * driver core: make driver_find_device() take a const * driver core: make driver_[create|remove]_file take a const * firmware_loader: fix soundness issue in `request_internal` firmware_loader: annotate doctests as `no_run` devres: Correct code style for functions that return a pointer type devres: Initialize an uninitialized struct member devres: Fix memory leakage caused by driver API devm_free_percpu() devres: Fix devm_krealloc() wasting memory driver core: platform: Switch to use kmemdup_array() driver core: have match() callback in struct bus_type take a const * MAINTAINERS: add Rust device abstractions to DRIVER CORE device: rust: improve safety comments MAINTAINERS: add Danilo as FIRMWARE LOADER maintainer MAINTAINERS: add Rust FW abstractions to FIRMWARE LOADER firmware: rust: improve safety comments ...

net: Add struct kernel_ethtool_ts_info

2024-07-15T15:02:26Z

In prevision to add new UAPI for hwtstamp we will be limited to the struct ethtool_ts_info that is currently passed in fixed binary format through the ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO ethtool ioctl. It would be good if new kernel code already started operating on an extensible kernel variant of that structure, similar in concept to struct kernel_hwtstamp_config vs struct hwtstamp_config. Since struct ethtool_ts_info is in include/uapi/linux/ethtool.h, here we introduce the kernel-only structure in include/linux/ethtool.h. The manual copy is then made in the function called by ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO.

net: Change the API of PHY default timestamp to MAC

2024-07-15T15:02:26Z

Change the API to select MAC default time stamping instead of the PHY. Indeed the PHY is closer to the wire therefore theoretically it has less delay than the MAC timestamping but the reality is different. Due to lower time stamping clock frequency, latency in the MDIO bus and no PHC hardware synchronization between different PHY, the PHY PTP is often less precise than the MAC. The exception is for PHY designed specially for PTP case but these devices are not very widespread. For not breaking the compatibility default_timestamp flag has been introduced in phy_device that is set by the phy driver to know we are using the old API behavior.

driver core: have match() callback in struct bus_type take a const *

2024-07-03T13:16:54Z

In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct device_driver in read-only memory. Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of() calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *. For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.) That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their struct device * in read-only-memory. Cc: Rafael J.

net: phy: introduce core support for phy-mode = "10g-qxgmii"

2024-06-18T11:28:26Z

10G-QXGMII is a MAC-to-PHY interface defined by the USXGMII multiport specification. It uses the same signaling as USXGMII, but it multiplexes 4 ports over the link, resulting in a maximum speed of 2.5G per port. Some in-tree SoCs like the NXP LS1028A use "usxgmii" when they mean either the single-port USXGMII or the quad-port 10G-QXGMII variant, and they could get away just fine with that thus far. But there is a need to distinguish between the 2 as far as SerDes drivers are concerned.
