Newer versions of the Xilink DMA IP support busses with more than 32 address bits, by introducing an MSB word for the registers holding DMA pointers (tail/current, RX/TX descriptor addresses). On IP configured for more than 32 bits, it is also *required* to write both words, to let the IP recognise this as a start condition for an MM2S request, for instance. Wrap the DMA pointer writes with a separate function, to add this functionality later. For now we stick to the lower 32 bits.

Especially with the default 32-bit DMA mask, DMA buffers are a limited resource, so their allocation can fail. So as the DMA API documentation requires, add error checking code after dma_map_single() calls to catch the case where we run out of "low" memory.

Factor out the code that cleans up a number of connected TX descriptors, as we will need it to properly roll back a failed _xmit() call. There are subtle differences between cleaning up a successfully sent chain (unknown number of involved descriptors, total data size needed) and a chain that was about to set up (number of descriptors known), so cater for those variations with some extra parameters.

Since 0 is a valid DMA address, we cannot use the physical address to check whether a TX descriptor is valid and is holding a DMA mapping. Use the "cntrl" member of the descriptor to make this decision, as it contains at least the length of the buffer, so 0 points to an uninitialised buffer.

When axienet_dma_bd_init() bails out during the initialisation process, it might do so with parts of the structure already allocated and initialised, while other parts have not been touched yet. Before returning in this case, we call axienet_dma_bd_release(), which does not take care of this corner case. This is most obvious by the first loop happily dereferencing lp->rx_bd_v, which we actually check to be non NULL *afterwards*. Make sure we only unmap or free already allocated structures, by: - directly returning with -ENOMEM if nothing has been allocated at all - checking for lp->rx_bd_v to be non-NULL *before* using it - only unmapping allocated DMA RX regions This avoids NULL pointer dereferences when initialisation fails.

When we fail allocating the DMA buffers in axienet_dma_bd_init(), we report this error, but carry on with initialisation nevertheless. This leads to a kernel panic when the driver later wants to send a packet, as it uses uninitialised data structures. Make the axienet_device_reset() routine return an error value, as it contains the DMA buffer initialisation. Make sure we propagate the error up the chain and eventually fail the driver initialisation, to avoid relying on non-initialised buffers.

The DMA error handler routine is currently a tasklet, scheduled to run after the DMA error IRQ was handled. However it needs to take the MDIO mutex, which is not allowed to do in a tasklet.

Similar to axienet, the temac driver is now architecture agnostic, and can be at least compiled for several architectures. Especially the fact that this is a soft IP for implementing in FPGAs makes the current restriction rather pointless, as it could literally appear on any architecture, as long as an FPGA is connected to the bus. The driver hasn't been actually tried on any hardware, it is just a drive-by patch when doing the same for axienet (a similar patch for axienet is already merged). This (temac and axienet) have been compile-tested for: alpha hppa64 microblaze mips64 powerpc powerpc64 riscv64 s390 sparc64 (using kernel.org cross compilers).

The invalid bitmask here might affect unrelated features when toggling TX checksumming. For example, TX checksumming is always mistakenly reported as enabled on the netdevs tested (mlx5, virtio_net).

Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== PTP_CLK pin configuration for SJA1105 DSA driver This series adds support for the PTP_CLK pin on SJA1105 to be configured via the PTP subsystem, in the "periodic output" and "external timestamp input" modes. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Vladimir Oltean authored
The SJA1105 switch family has a PTP_CLK pin which emits a signal with fixed 50% duty cycle, but variable frequency and programmable start time. On the second generation (P/Q/R/S) switches, this pin supports even more functionality. The use case described by the hardware documents talks about synchronization via oneshot pulses: given 2 sja1105 switches, arbitrarily designated as a master and a slave, the master emits a single pulse on PTP_CLK, while the slave is configured to timestamp this pulse received on its PTP_CLK pin (which must obviously be configured as input). The difference between the timestamps then exactly becomes the slave offset to the master. The only trouble with the above is that the hardware is very much tied into this use case only, and not very generic beyond that: - When emitting a oneshot pulse, instead of being told when to emit it, the switch just does it "now" and tells you later what time it was, via the PTPSYNCTS register. [ Incidentally, this is the same register that the slave uses to collect the ext_ts timestamp from, too. ] - On the sync slave, there is no interrupt mechanism on reception of a new extts, and no FIFO to buffer them, because in the foreseen use case, software is in control of both the master and the slave pins, so it "knows" when there's something to collect. These 2 problems mean that: - We don't support (at least yet) the quirky oneshot mode exposed by the hardware, just normal periodic output. - We abuse the hardware a little bit when we expose generic extts. Because there's no interrupt mechanism, we need to poll at double the frequency we expect to receive a pulse. Currently that means a non-configurable "twice a second".

The AVB table contains the CAS_MASTER field (to be added in the next patch) which decides the direction of the PTP_CLK pin. Reconfiguring this field dynamically is highly preferable to having to reset the switch and upload a new static configuration, so we add support for exactly that.

Because the PTP_CLK pin starts toggling only at a time higher than the current PTP clock, this helper from the time-aware shaper code comes in handy here as well. We'll use it to transform generic user input for the perout request into valid input for the sja1105 hardware. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

These fields configure the destination and source MAC address that the switch will put in the Ethernet frames sent towards the CPU port that contain RX timestamps for PTP. These fields do not enable the feature itself, that is configured via SEND_META0 and SEND_META1 in the General Params table. The implication of this patch is that the AVB Params table will always be present in the static config. Which doesn't really hurt. This is needed because in a future patch, we will add another field from this table, CAS_MASTER, for configuring the PTP_CLK pin function. That can be configured irrespective of whether RX timestamping is enabled or not, so always having this table present is going to simplify things a bit.

Ido Schimmel says: ==================== devlink: Preparations for trap policers support This patch set prepares the code for devlink-trap policer support in a follow-up patch set [1][2]. No functional changes intended. Policers are going to be added as attributes of packet trap groups, which are entities used to aggregate logically related packet traps. This will allow users, for example, to limit all the packets that encountered an exception during routing to 10Kpps. However, currently, device drivers register their packet trap groups implicitly when they register their packet traps via devlink_traps_register(). This makes it difficult to pass additional attributes for the groups. For example, the policer bound to the group. Therefore, this patch set converts device drivers to explicitly register their packet trap groups. This will later allow these drivers to register the group with additional attributes, if any. ==================== Acked-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Packet trap groups are now explicitly registered by drivers and not implicitly registered when the packet traps are registered. Therefore, there is no need to encode entire group structure the trap is associated with inside the trap structure. Instead, only pass the group identifier. Refer to it as initial group identifier, as future patches will allow user space to move traps between groups.
