      devlink: expand the devlink-info documentation · cd556e40
      Jakub Kicinski authored 
      We are having multiple review cycles with all vendors trying
to implement devlink-info. Let's expand the documentation with
more information about what's implemented and motivation behind
this interface in an attempt to make the implementations easier.

Describe what each info section is supposed to contain, and make
some references to other HW interfaces (PCI caps).

Document how firmware management is expected to look, to make
it clear how devlink-info and devlink-flash work in concert.

Name some future work.

v2: - improve wording
v3: - improve wording

      net: phy: mscc: consolidate a common RGMII delay implementation · 2283a02b
      Vladimir Oltean authored 
      It looks like the VSC8584 PHY driver is rolling its own RGMII delay
configuration code, despite the fact that the logic is mostly the same.

In fact only the register layout and position for the RGMII controls has
changed. So we need to adapt and parameterize the PHY-dependent bit
fields when calling the new generic function.

====================
net: axienet: Update error handling and add 64-bit DMA support

a minor update, fixing the 32-bit build breakage, and brightening up
Dave's christmas tree. Rebased against latest net-next/master.

This series is based on net-next as of today (9970de8b), which
includes Russell's fixes [1], solving the SGMII issues I have had.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/E1j6trA-0003GY-N1@rmk-PC.armlinux.org.uk/

Changelog v2 .. v3:
- Use two "left-shifts by 16" to fix builds with 32-bit phys_addr_t
- reorder variable declarations

Changelog v1 .. v2:
- Add Reviewed-by: tags from Radhey
- Extend kerndoc documentation
- Convert DMA error handler tasklet to work queue
- log DMA mapping errors
- mark DMA mapping error checks as unlikely (in "hot" paths)
- return NETDEV_TX_OK on TX DMA mapping error (increasing TX drop counter)
- Request eth IRQ as an optional IRQ
- Remove no longer needed MDIO IRQ register names
- Drop DT propery check for address width, assume full 64 bit

This series updates the Xilinx Axienet driver to work on our board
here. One big issue was broken SGMII support, which Russell fixed already
(in net-next).
While debugging and understanding the driver, I found several problems
in the error handling and cleanup paths, which patches 2-7 address.
Patch 8 removes a annoying error message, patch 9 paves the way for newer
revisions of the IP. The next patch adds mii-tool support, just for good
measure.

The next four patches add support for 64-bit DMA. This is an integration
option on newer IP revisions (>= v7.1), and expects MSB bits in formerly
reserved registers. Without writing to those MSB registers, the state
machine won't trigger, so it's mandatory to access them, even if they
are zero. Patches 11 and 12 prepare the code by adding accessors, to
wrap this properly and keep it working on older IP revisions.
Patch 13 enables access to the MSB registers, by trying to write a
non-zero value to them and checking if that sticks. Older IP revisions
always read those registers as zero.
Patch 14 then adjusts the DMA mask, based on the autodetected MSB
feature. It uses the full 64 bits in this case, the rest of the system
(actual physical addresses in use) should provide a natural limit if the
chip has connected fewer address lines. If not, the parent DT node can
use a dma-range property.

The Xilinx PG138 and PG021 documents (in versions 7.1 in both cases)
were used for this series.
