Instead of adding more ifthen logic for adding a new mac_device_info
setup function, it is easier to add a function pointer to the function
needed.

+* Allwinner sun8i GMAC ethernet controller
+
+This device is a platform glue layer for stmmac.
+Please see stmmac.txt for the other unchanged properties.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should be one of the following string:
+ "allwinner,sun8i-a83t-emac"
+ "allwinner,sun8i-h3-emac"
+ "allwinner,sun50i-a64-emac"
+- reg: address and length of the register for the device.
+- interrupts: interrupt for the device
+- interrupt-names: should be "macirq"
+- clocks: A phandle to the reference clock for this device
+- clock-names: should be "stmmaceth"
+- resets: A phandle to the reset control for this device
+- reset-names: should be "stmmaceth"
+- phy-mode: See ethernet.txt
+- phy-handle: See ethernet.txt
+- #address-cells: shall be 1
+- #size-cells: shall be 0
+- syscon: A phandle to the syscon of the SoC with one of the following
+ compatible string:
+ - allwinner,sun8i-h3-system-controller
+ - allwinner,sun50i-a64-system-controller
+ - allwinner,sun8i-a83t-system-controller
+
+Optional properties:
+- allwinner,tx-delay-ps: TX clock delay chain value in ps. Range value is 0-700. Default is 0)
+- allwinner,rx-delay-ps: RX clock delay chain value in ps. Range value is 0-3100. Default is 0)
+Both delay properties need to be a multiple of 100. They control the delay for
+external PHY.
+
+Optional properties for "allwinner,sun8i-h3-emac":
+- allwinner,leds-active-low: EPHY LEDs are active low
+
+Required child node of emac:
+- mdio bus node: should be named mdio
+
+Required properties of the mdio node:
+- #address-cells: shall be 1
+- #size-cells: shall be 0
+
+The device node referenced by "phy" or "phy-handle" should be a child node
+of the mdio node. See phy.txt for the generic PHY bindings.
+
+Required properties of the phy node with "allwinner,sun8i-h3-emac":
+- clocks: a phandle to the reference clock for the EPHY
+- resets: a phandle to the reset control for the EPHY
+
+Example:
+
+emac: ***@1c0b000 {
+ compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3-emac";
+ syscon = <&syscon>;
+ reg = <0x01c0b000 0x104>;

This patch add the dt node for the syscon register present on the
Allwinner H3/H5

Only two register are present in this syscon and the only one useful is
the one dedicated to EMAC clock..

The dwmac-sun8i is a heavy hacked version of stmmac hardware by
allwinner.
In fact the only common part is the descriptor management and the first
register function.

The dwmac-sun8i is a heavy hacked version of stmmac hardware by
allwinner.
In fact the only common part is the descriptor management and the first
register function.
Hi,

So here you seem to deduce the usage of the internal PHY by the PHY
interface specified in the DT (MII = internal, RGMII = external).
I think I raised this question before, but isn't it perfectly legal for
a board to use MII with an external PHY even on those SoCs that feature
an internal PHY?
On the first glance that does not make too much sense, but apart from
not being the correct binding to describe all of the SoCs features I see
two scenarios:
1) A board vendor might choose to not use the internal PHY because it
has bugs, lacks features (configurability) or has other issues. For
instance I have heard reports that the internal PHY makes the SoC go
rather hot, possibly limiting the CPU frequency. By using an external
MII PHY (which are still cheaper than RGMII PHYs) this can be avoided.
2) A PHY does not necessarily need to be directly connected to
magnetics. Indeed quite some boards use (RG)MII to connect to a switch
IC or some other network circuitry, for instance fibre connectors.

So I was wondering if we would need an explicit:
allwinner,use-internal-phy;
boolean DT property to signal the usage of the internal PHY?
Alternatively we could go with the negative version:
allwinner,disable-internal-phy;

Or what about introducing a new "allwinner,internal-mii-phy" compatible
string for the *PHY* node and use that?

I just want to avoid that we introduce a binding that causes us
headaches later. I think we can still fix this with a followup patch
before the driver and its binding hit a release kernel.

Cheers,
Andre.

I'm not a fan of using phy-mode for this. There's no guarantee what
mode the internal PHY uses. That's what phy-mode is for.

In any case, we should fix this before 4.13 is released.

For each soc the internal PHY mode is know and setted in emac_variant/internal_phy
So its not a problem.

On the first glance that does not make too much sense, but apart from
not being the correct binding to describe all of the SoCs features I see
1) A board vendor might choose to not use the internal PHY because it
has bugs, lacks features (configurability) or has other issues. For
instance I have heard reports that the internal PHY makes the SoC go
rather hot, possibly limiting the CPU frequency. By using an external
MII PHY (which are still cheaper than RGMII PHYs) this can be avoided.
2) A PHY does not necessarily need to be directly connected to
magnetics. Indeed quite some boards use (RG)MII to connect to a switch
IC or some other network circuitry, for instance fibre connectors.

Or what about introducing a new "allwinner,internal-mii-phy" compatible
string for the *PHY* node and use that?
I just want to avoid that we introduce a binding that causes us

before the driver and its binding hit a release kernel.

that is true as well, at least for now.

So while I agree that having a separate property to indicate the usage
of the internal PHY would be nice, I am bit tempted to use this easier
approach and piggy back on the existing phy-mode property.

Are there any insights from the people involved with the Rockchip
internal PHY?
It is worth to introduce a generic boolean property for an internal PHY?
Or shall we actually move this more into the PHY code, introducing new
compatibles for the internal Allwinner and Rockchip Ethernet PHYs?

Cheers,
Andre.

If we want to consider future weird cases, then we must consider all

I guess the issue is whether it's likely that the vendor puts 2 internal
PHYs in one SoC, and they use different modes and can be switched around.
Otherwise it's fixed for a given SoC, and we can just handle that with
the per-SoC GMAC compatible.

Maybe Florian could tell us if this was one of the intended use cases
for the "internal" phy mode.

As for Rockchip, AFAIK they have 2 MACs, one is connected to the internal
PHY, while the other is connected to the external interface, and there is
no muxing involved, unlike Allwinner's solution.
Post by Maxime Ripard
I agree with Chen-Yu, and I really feel like the compatible solution
you suggested would cover both your concerns, and ours.
If using a PHY compatible is the solution, we could just use the
"ethernet-phy-idAAAA.BBBB" style one, and put in the bogus ID that
Allwinner used.

Care must be taken to put this at the board level for boards using
the internal PHY, or we'd have to delete or override the property
in all other boards.

Ideally I think the internal PHY device node should _not_ be in
the SoC level .dtsi file. If we select the external interface, then
there's no connection to the internal PHY, and that device node becomes
unusable and bogus. This is something I think should be fixed regardless
of the phy-mode discussion above.

I think I raised this question before, but isn't it perfectly legal for
a board to use MII with an external PHY even on those SoCs that feature
an internal PHY?
On the first glance that does not make too much sense, but apart from
not being the correct binding to describe all of the SoCs features I see
1) A board vendor might choose to not use the internal PHY because it
has bugs, lacks features (configurability) or has other issues. For
instance I have heard reports that the internal PHY makes the SoC go
rather hot, possibly limiting the CPU frequency. By using an external
MII PHY (which are still cheaper than RGMII PHYs) this can be avoided.
2) A PHY does not necessarily need to be directly connected to
magnetics. Indeed quite some boards use (RG)MII to connect to a switch
IC or some other network circuitry, for instance fibre connectors.
allwinner,use-internal-phy;
boolean DT property to signal the usage of the internal PHY?
allwinner,disable-internal-phy;
Or what about introducing a new "allwinner,internal-mii-phy" compatible
string for the *PHY* node and use that?
I just want to avoid that we introduce a binding that causes us
headaches later. I think we can still fix this with a followup patch
before the driver and its binding hit a release kernel.
Cheers,
Andre.
I just see some patch, where "phy-mode = internal" is valid.

I'm not a fan of using phy-mode for this. There's no guarantee what

I can understand Chen-Yu's concerns, but ...
Post by Corentin Labbe

So its not a problem.
that is true as well, at least for now.
So while I agree that having a separate property to indicate the usage
of the internal PHY would be nice, I am bit tempted to use this easier
approach and piggy back on the existing phy-mode property.
We're trying to fix an issue that works for now too.
If we want to consider future weird cases, then we must consider all
of them. And the phy mode changing is definitely not really far
fetched.
I agree with Chen-Yu, and I really feel like the compatible solution
you suggested would cover both your concerns, and ours.
So something like this?
emac: ***@1c30000 {
compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3-emac";
...
phy-mode = "mii";
phy-handle = <&int_mii_phy>;
...

mdio: mdio {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
int_mii_phy: ethernet-***@1 {
compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3-ephy";
syscon = <&syscon>;
reg = <1>;
clocks = <&ccu CLK_BUS_EPHY>;
resets = <&ccu RST_BUS_EPHY>;
};
};
};

And then move the internal-PHY setup code into a separate PHY driver?

That looks like the architecturally best solution to me, but is probably
also a bit involved since it would require a separate PHY driver.
Or can we make it simpler, but still use this binding?

Cheers,
Andre.

This was my initial approach prior to handing it off to Corentin.

The MDIO bus is discoverable, so in the kernel MDIO bus driver code, the
devices are only created if something responds. However, for the EPHY to
respond, you must first configure the clocks, reset controls, and syscon
registers. You need either a platform device driver for that, or do it
in the MAC driver. The latter made more sense at the time, looking at
how the device tree is structured.

syscon = <&syscon>;
The MAC still needs to set some bits of syscon register.
Yes, the syscon property needs also to be in the MAC node, that was
meant to be somewhere in the second "..." ;-)

But now since Chen-Yu mentioned that we need to set up the PHY *first*
to make it actually discoverable via MDIO, I wonder if we could change
this to:
1) have the DT as described here
2) Let the dwmac-sun8i driver peek into the node referenced by
phy-handle and check the compatible string there.
3) If that matches some allwinner internal PHY name, it sets up the PHY
to make it respond when the MDIO driver queries its bus.

Or can a PHY driver set itself up (since we have clocks and resets
properties in there) *before* the MDIO bus gets scanned?
Chen-Yu's comment in the other mail hints at that this is not easily
possible.

Cheers,
Andre.

that is true as well, at least for now.
So while I agree that having a separate property to indicate the

Post by Maxime Ripard
Post by Andre Przywara
approach and piggy back on the existing phy-mode property.
We're trying to fix an issue that works for now too.
If we want to consider future weird cases, then we must consider all
of them. And the phy mode changing is definitely not really far
fetched.
I agree with Chen-Yu, and I really feel like the compatible solution
you suggested would cover both your concerns, and ours.
So something like this?
compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3-emac";
...
phy-mode = "mii";
phy-handle = <&int_mii_phy>;
...
mdio: mdio {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3-ephy";
syscon = <&syscon>;
The MAC still needs to set some bits of syscon register.
Yes, the syscon property needs also to be in the MAC node, that was
meant to be somewhere in the second "..." ;-)
But now since Chen-Yu mentioned that we need to set up the PHY *first*
to make it actually discoverable via MDIO, I wonder if we could change
1) have the DT as described here
2) Let the dwmac-sun8i driver peek into the node referenced by
phy-handle and check the compatible string there.
3) If that matches some allwinner internal PHY name, it sets up the PHY
to make it respond when the MDIO driver queries its bus.
Or can a PHY driver set itself up (since we have clocks and resets
properties in there) *before* the MDIO bus gets scanned?
Chen-Yu's comment in the other mail hints at that this is not easily
possible.
Cheers,
Andre.
I think adding phy compatible just make things more complex.

I think the patch series I sent early fix all problems without more complexity since:
- it does not add more DT stuff
- it use an already used in tree DT phy-mode "internal" (and so phy mode PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_INTERNAL)

The MAC still needs to set some bits of syscon register.
Yes, the syscon property needs also to be in the MAC node, that
was meant to be somewhere in the second "..." ;-)
But now since Chen-Yu mentioned that we need to set up the PHY *first*
to make it actually discoverable via MDIO, I wonder if we could change
1) have the DT as described here
2) Let the dwmac-sun8i driver peek into the node referenced by
phy-handle and check the compatible string there.
3) If that matches some allwinner internal PHY name, it sets up the PHY
to make it respond when the MDIO driver queries its bus.
Or can a PHY driver set itself up (since we have clocks and resets
properties in there) *before* the MDIO bus gets scanned?
Chen-Yu's comment in the other mail hints at that this is not easily
possible.
I think adding phy compatible just make things more complex.
- it does not add more DT stuff
- it use an already used in tree DT phy-mode "internal" (and so phy
mode PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_INTERNAL)
- it doesn't cover all the concerns we ha> - it uses an undocumented value, with an unclear implication
No it's no longer undocumented since [1]

Due to the timezone difference, you guys have already managed to have

that is true as well, at least for now.
So while I agree that having a separate property to indicate
the usage of the internal PHY would be nice, I am bit tempted
to use this easier approach and piggy back on the existing
phy-mode property.
We're trying to fix an issue that works for now too.
If we want to consider future weird cases, then we must
consider all of them. And the phy mode changing is definitely
not really far fetched.
I agree with Chen-Yu, and I really feel like the compatible
solution you suggested would cover both your concerns, and
ours.
So something like this?
compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3-emac";
...
phy-mode = "mii";
phy-handle = <&int_mii_phy>;
...
mdio: mdio {
#address-cells = <1>;

Hello

I wait for your comment before sending my reverts patch for http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-***@vger.kernel.org/msg1431579.html
Could you confirm that internal is only meant for "non xMII internal protocol"

Hello
Could you confirm that internal is only meant for "non xMII internal protocol"
Yes that's what is it meant for. There are possibly two ways here:

1) assuming there is already a specific PHY driver for that internal
PHY, you should have this PHY driver set PHY_IS_INTERNAL (see bcm63xx.c
and bcm7xxx.c that do that) and so you would know that you did bind to
the correct internal PHY driver. Problem with that is if you need to
perform a particular action such that you will successfully bind to the
internal PHY (e.g: power on, reset, etc.)

2) We could create a new set of phy-mode values that are, e.g:

'internal-mii': internal MII connection to the PHY

and so on in order to cover the internal variants of those modes. I am
not sure this is strictly needed here though.

to make it respond when the MDIO driver queries its bus.
Or can a PHY driver set itself up (since we have clocks and resets
properties in there) *before* the MDIO bus gets scanned?
Chen-Yu's comment in the other mail hints at that this is not easily
possible.
I think adding phy compatible just make things more complex.
I think the patch series I sent early fix all problems without more
- it does not add more DT stuff
- it use an already used in tree DT phy-mode "internal" (and so phy
mode PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_INTERNAL)
- it doesn't cover all the concerns we ha> - it uses an undocumented value, with an unclear implication
No it's no longer undocumented since [1]
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git/commit/?id=29b65f5f97632722bb80969377e5b0e2401fb392
Due to the timezone difference, you guys have already managed to have
several exchanges, hopefully I will have a chance to review your
discussions a little later today.
Hello
Could you confirm that internal is only meant for "non xMII internal protocol"
1) assuming there is already a specific PHY driver for that internal
PHY, you should have this PHY driver set PHY_IS_INTERNAL (see bcm63xx.c
and bcm7xxx.c that do that) and so you would know that you did bind to
the correct internal PHY driver. Problem with that is if you need to
perform a particular action such that you will successfully bind to the
internal PHY (e.g: power on, reset, etc.)
'internal-mii': internal MII connection to the PHY
and so on in order to cover the internal variants of those modes. I am
not sure this is strictly needed here though.
Or perhaps a phy-location = "external|internal" ?

I just see some patch, where "phy-mode = internal" is valid.
I will try to find a way to use it
Can you provide a link?

I'm not a fan of using phy-mode for this. There's no guarantee
what
Post by Maxime Ripard
Post by Andre Przywara
Post by Corentin Labbe
Post by Chen-Yu Tsai
mode the internal PHY uses. That's what phy-mode is for.
I can understand Chen-Yu's concerns, but ...
Post by Corentin Labbe
For each soc the internal PHY mode is know and setted in
emac_variant/internal_phy
Post by Maxime Ripard
Post by Andre Przywara
Post by Corentin Labbe
So its not a problem.
that is true as well, at least for now.
So while I agree that having a separate property to indicate the
usage
Post by Maxime Ripard
Post by Andre Przywara
of the internal PHY would be nice, I am bit tempted to use this
easier
Post by Maxime Ripard
Post by Andre Przywara
approach and piggy back on the existing phy-mode property.
We're trying to fix an issue that works for now too.
If we want to consider future weird cases, then we must consider all
of them. And the phy mode changing is definitely not really far
fetched.
I agree with Chen-Yu, and I really feel like the compatible solution
you suggested would cover both your concerns, and ours.
So something like this?
compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3-emac";
...
phy-mode = "mii";
phy-handle = <&int_mii_phy>;
...
mdio: mdio {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3-ephy";
syscon = <&syscon>;
The MAC still needs to set some bits of syscon register.
Yes, the syscon property needs also to be in the MAC node, that was
meant to be somewhere in the second "..." ;-)
But now since Chen-Yu mentioned that we need to set up the PHY *first*
to make it actually discoverable via MDIO, I wonder if we could change
1) have the DT as described here
2) Let the dwmac-sun8i driver peek into the node referenced by
phy-handle and check the compatible string there.
3) If that matches some allwinner internal PHY name, it sets up the PHY
to make it respond when the MDIO driver queries its bus.
That would be quite easy to do, and would be my implementation of
choice yes.
Post by Andre Przywara
Or can a PHY driver set itself up (since we have clocks and resets
properties in there) *before* the MDIO bus gets scanned?
Chen-Yu's comment in the other mail hints at that this is not easily
possible.
Yeah, that's not easily doable, it would require your driver to probe
before your device has showed up, which is not quite what the driver
model is made like.

The dwmac-sun8i is an Ethernet MAC that supports 10/100/1000 Mbit
connections. It is very similar to the device found in the Allwinner
H3, but lacks the internal 100 Mbit PHY and its associated control
bits.
This adds the necessary bits to the Allwinner A64 SoC .dtsi, but keeps
it disabled at this level.

The DT patches should not go through your tree, but arm-soc, so I
guess this is not an issue for you?

Ok, so I saw that you actually merged them. Can you revert or drop
that merge for the DT part?

This will generate a lot of conflicts with our tree, and I'm not sure
this would be efficient to make you take all the entirely unrelated to
next patches.

I already applied them, so if that is the intention, too late.

This needs to be explicitly stated in the header posting. Otherwise
I assume the entire series is meant to go into my tree.

Also, saying "net-next" in the patch subjects means it's targetting my
tree.
