We need this independence as we will have stand-alone code for PCS that is independent of the MAC. Introduce struct phylink_pcs, which is designed to be embedded in a driver private data structure.

2020-07-21net: phylink: re-implement interface configuration with PCSRussell King
With PCS support, how we implement interface reconfiguration (or other major reconfiguration) is not up to the job; we end up reconfiguring the PCS for an interface change while the link could potentially be up. In order to solve this, add two additional MAC methods for major configuration, one to prepare for the change, and one to finish the change. This allows mvneta and mvpp2 to shutdown what they require prior to the MAC and PCS configuration calls, and then restart as appropriate. This impacts ksettings_set(), which now needs to identify whether the change is a minor tweak to the advertisement masks or whether the interface mode has changed, and call the appropriate function for that update.

Some MAC PCS blocks are unable to provide interrupts when their status changes. As we already have support in phylink for polling status, use this to provide a hook for MACs to enable polling mode. The patch idea was picked up from Russell King's suggestion on the macb phylink patch thread here [0] but the implementation was changed. Instead of introducing a new phylink_start_poll() function, which would make the implementation cumbersome for common PHYLINK implementations for multiple types of devices, like DSA, just add a boolean property to the phylink_config structure, which is just as backwards-compatible. https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/12/16/603 Suggested-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

For printing usecases, instead, a struct device * should be passed to PHYLINK using the phylink_config structure. Also, netif_carrier_* calls ar guarded by the presence of a valid net_device.

2019-05-29net: phylink: Add struct phylink_config to PHYLINK APIIoana Ciornei
The phylink_config structure will encapsulate a pointer to a struct device and the operation type requested for this instance of PHYLINK. This patch does not make any functional changes, it just transitions the PHYLINK internals and all its users to the new API. A pointer to a phylink_config structure will be passed to phylink_create() instead of the net_device directly. Also, the same phylink_config pointer will be passed back to all phylink_mac_ops callbacks instead of the net_device. Using this mechanism, a PHYLINK user can get the original net_device using a structure such as 'to_net_dev(config->dev)' or directly the structure containing the phylink_config using a container_of call. At the moment, only the PHYLINK_NETDEV is defined as a valid operation type for PHYLINK. In this mode, a valid reference to a struct device linked to the original net_device should be passed to PHYLINK through the phylink_config structure. This API changes is mainly driven by the necessity of adding a new operation type in PHYLINK that disconnects the phy_device from the net_device and also works when the net_device is lacking.

2017-08-06phylink: add phylink infrastructureRussell King
The link between the ethernet MAC and its PHY has become more complex as the interface evolves. This is especially true with serdes links, where the part of the PHY is effectively integrated into the MAC. Serdes links can be connected to a variety of devices, including SFF modules soldered down onto the board with the MAC, a SFP cage with a hotpluggable SFP module which may contain a PHY or directly modulate the serdes signals onto optical media with or without a PHY, or even a classical PHY connection. Moreover, the negotiation information on serdes links comes in two varieties - SGMII mode, where the PHY provides its speed/duplex/flow control information to the MAC, and 1000base-X mode where both ends exchange their abilities and each resolve the link capabilities. This means we need a more flexible means to support these arrangements, particularly with the hotpluggable nature of SFP, where the PHY can be attached or detached after the network device has been brought up. Ethtool information can come from multiple sources: - we may have a PHY operating in either SGMII or 1000base-X mode, in which case we take ethtool/mii data directly from the PHY. - we may have a optical SFP module without a PHY, with the MAC operating in 1000base-X mode - the ethtool/mii data needs to come from the MAC. - we may have a copper SFP module with a PHY whic can't be accessed, which means we need to take ethtool/mii data from the MAC. Phylink aims to solve this by providing an intermediary between the MAC and PHY, providing a safe way for PHYs to be hotplugged, and allowing a SFP driver to reconfigure the serdes connection. Phylink also takes over support of fixed link connections, where the speed/duplex/flow control are fixed, but link status may be controlled by a GPIO signal. By avoiding the fixed-phy implementation, phylink can provide a faster response to link events: fixed-phy has to wait for phylib to operate its state machine, which can take several seconds. In comparison, phylink takes milliseconds. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> - remove sync status - rework supported and advertisment handling - add 1000base-x speed for fixed links - use functionality exported from phy-core, reworking __phylink_ethtool_ksettings_set for it Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.
