Loic Poulain says: ==================== net: Add WWAN link creation support Most of the modern WWAN modems are able to support multiple network contexts, allowing user to connect to different APNs (e.g. Internet, MMS, etc...). These contexts are usually dynamically configured via a control channel such as MBIM, QMI or AT. Each context is naturally represented as a network link/device, and the muxing of these links is usually vendor/bus specific (QMAP, MBIM, intel iosm...). Today some drivers create a static collection of netdevs at init time, some relies on VLAN link for associating a context (cdc-mbim), some exposes sysfs attribute for dynamically creating additional netdev (qmi_wwan add_mux attr) or relies on vendor specific link type (rmnet) for performing the muxing... so there is no generic way to handle WWAN links, making user side integration painful. This series introduces a generic WWAN link management interface to the WWAN framework, allowing user to dynamically create and remove WWAN links through rtnetlink ('wwan' type). The underlying 'muxing' vendor implementation is completely abstracted. The idea is to use this interface for upcoming WWAN drivers (intel iosm) and to progressively integrate support into existing ones (qmi_wwan, cdc-mbim, mhi_net, etc...). v2: - Squashed Johannes and Sergey changes - Added IFLA_PARENT_DEV_BUS_NAME attribute - reworded commit message + introduce Sergey's comment v3: - Added basic new interface user to this series (mhi_net) - Moved IFLA_PARENT_DEV_NAME nla_policy introduction to right patch - Added cover letter - moved kdoc to .c file ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Register wwan_ops for link management via wwan rtnetlink. This is only basic support for now, since we only support creating one single link (link-0), but is useful to validate new wwan rtnetlink interface. For backward compatibity support, we still register a default netdev at probe time, except if 'create_default_iface' module parameter is set to false. This has been tested with iproute2 and mbimcli: $ ip link add dev wwan0-0 parentdev-name wwan0 type wwan linkid 0 $ mbimcli -p -d /dev/wwan0p2MBIM --connect apn=free $ ip link set dev wwan0-0 up $ ip addr add dev wwan0 ${IP} $ ip route replace default via ${IP} $ ping 8.8.8.8 ...

In some cases, for example in the upcoming WWAN framework changes, there's no natural "parent netdev", so sometimes dummy netdevs are created or similar. IFLA_PARENT_DEV_NAME is a new attribute intended to contain a device (sysfs, struct device) name that can be used instead when creating a new netdev, if the rtnetlink family implements it. As suggested by Parav Pandit, we also introduce IFLA_PARENT_DEV_BUS_NAME attribute in order to uniquely identify a device on the system (with bus/name pair). ip-link(8) support for the generic parent device attributes will help us avoid code duplication, so no other link type will require a custom code to handle the parent name attribute. E.g. the WWAN interface creation command will looks like this: $ ip link add wwan0-1 parent-dev wwan0 type wwan channel-id 1 So, some future subsystem (or driver) FOO will have an interface creation command that looks like this: $ ip link add foo1-3 parent-dev foo1 type foo bar-id 3 baz-type Y Below is an example of dumping link info of a random device with these new attributes: $ ip --details link show wlp0s20f3 4: wlp0s20f3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000 ... parent_bus pci parent_dev 0000:00:14.3 Co-developed-by: Sergey Ryazanov <ryazanov.s.a@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sergey Ryazanov <ryazanov.s.a@gmail.com> Co-developed-by: Loic Poulain <loic.poulain@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Loic Poulain <loic.poulain@linaro.org> Suggested-by: Sergey Ryazanov <ryazanov.s.a@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In order to make rtnetlink ops that can create different kinds of devices, like what we want to add to the WWAN framework, the priv_size and setup parameters aren't quite sufficient. Make this easier to manage by allowing ops to allocate their own netdev via an @alloc method that gets the tb netlink data.

On the SJA1110, the PCS of each SERDES-capable port is accessed through a different memory window which is 0x100 bytes in size, denoted by "pcs_base". In each PCS register access window, the XPCS MMDs are accessed in an indirect way: in pages/banks of up to 0x100 addresses each. Changing the page/bank is done by writing to a special register at the end of the access window. The MDIO register map accessed indirectly through the indirect banked method described above is similar to what SJA1105 has: upper 5 bits are the MMD, lower 16 bits are the MDIO address within that MMD. Since the PHY ID reported by the XPCS inside SJA1110 is also all zeroes (like SJA1105), we need to trap those reads and return a fake PHY ID so that the xpcs driver can apply some specific fixups for our integration.

There is a desire to use the generic driver for the Synopsys XPCS located in drivers/net/pcs, and to achieve that, the sja1105 driver must expose an MDIO bus for the SGMII PCS, because the XPCS probes as an mdio_device. In preparation of the SJA1110 which in fact has a different access procedure for the SJA1105, we register this PCS MDIO bus once in the common code, but we implement function pointers for the read and write methods. In this patch there is a single implementation for them. There is exactly one MDIO bus for the PCS, this will contain all PCSes at MDIO addresses equal to the port number. We delete a bunch of hardware support code because the xpcs driver already does what we need. We need to hack up the MDIO reads for the PHY ID, since our XPCS instantiation returns zeroes and there are some specific fixups which need to be applied by the xpcs driver.

The sja1105 hardware has a quirk in that some changes require a switch reset, which loses all configuration. When the reset is initiated, everything needs to be reprogrammed, including the MACs and the PCS. This is currently done in sja1105_static_config_reload() - we manually call sja1105_adjust_port_config(), sja1105_sgmii_pcs_config() and sja1105_sgmii_pcs_force_speed() which are all internal functions. There is a desire for sja1105 to use the common xpcs driver, and that means that the equivalents of those functions, xpcs_do_config() and xpcs_link_up() respectively, will no longer be local functions. Forcing phylink to retrigger a resolve somehow, say by doing dev_close() followed by dev_open() is not really an option, because the CPU port might have a PCS as well, and there is no net device which we can close and reopen for that. Additionally, the dev_close/dev_open sequence might force a renegotiation of the copper-side link for SGMII ports connected to a PHY, and this is undesirable as well, because the switch reset is much quicker than a PHY autoneg, so we would have a lot more downtime. The only solution I see is for the sja1105 driver to keep doing what it's doing, and that means we need to export the equivalents from xpcs for sja1105_sgmii_pcs_config and sja1105_sgmii_pcs_force_speed, and call them directly in sja1105_static_config_reload(). This will be done during the conversion patch. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The NXP SJA1110 switch integrates its own, non-Synopsys PMA, but it manages it through the register space of the XPCS itself, in a small register window inside MDIO_MMD_VEND2 from address 0x8030 to 0x806e. This coincides with where the registers for the default Synopsys PMA are, but the register definitions are of course not the same. This situation is an odd hardware quirk, but the simplest way to manage it is to drive the SJA1110's PMA from within the XPCS driver.

The NXP SJA1105 DSA switch integrates a Synopsys SGMII XPCS on port 4. The generic code works fine, except there is an integration issue which needs to be dealt with: in this switch, the XPCS is integrated with a PMA that has the TX lane polarity inverted by default (PLUS is MINUS, MINUS is PLUS). To obtain normal non-inverted behavior, the TX lane polarity must be inverted in the PCS, via the DIGITAL_CONTROL_2 register. We introduce a pma_config() method in xpcs_compat which is called by the phylink_pcs_config() implementation. Also, the NXP SJA1105 returns all zeroes in the PHY ID registers 2 and 3. We need to hack up an ad-hoc PHY ID (OUI is zero, device ID is 1) in order for the XPCS driver to recognize it. This PHY ID is added to the public include/linux/pcs/pcs-xpcs.h for that reason (for the sja1105 driver to be able to use it in a later patch).

xpcs_get_id() searches multiple MMDs for a known PHY ID, starting with MDIO_MMD_PCS (3). However not all integrators might have implemented that MMD on their MDIO bus. For example, the NXP SJA1105 and SJA1110 switches only implement vendor-specific MMD 1 and 2. When there is nothing on an MDIO bus at a certain address, traditionally the bus returns 0xffff, which means that the bus remained in its default pull-up state for the duration of the MDIO transaction. The 0xffff value is widely used in drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c (see get_phy_c22_id for example) to denote a missing device. So it makes sense for the xpcs to ignore this value as well, and continue its search, eventually finding the proper PHY ID in the vendor-specific MMDs.

Alex Elder says: ==================== net: qualcomm: rmnet: MAPv4 download checksum cleanup, part 1 I'm posting a large series an two smaller parts; this is part 1. The RMNet driver handles MAP (or QMAP) protocol traffic. There are several versions of this protocol. Version 1 supports multiplexing, as well as aggregation of packets in a single buffer. Version 4 adds the ability to perform checksum offload. And version 5 implements checksum offload in a different way from version 4. This series involves only MAPv4 protocol checksum offload, and only in the download (RX) direction. It affects handling of checksums computed by hardware for UDP datagrams and TCP segments, carried over both IPv4 and IPv6. MAP packets arriving on an RMNet port implementing MAPv4 checksum offload are passed to rmnet_map_checksum_downlink_packet() for handling. The packet is then passed to rmnet_map_ipv4_dl_csum_trailer() or rmnet_map_ipv6_dl_csum_trailer(), depending contents of the MAP payload. These two functions interpret checksum metadata to determine whether the checksum in the received packet matches that calculated by the hardware. It is these two functions that are the subject of this series (parts 1 and 2). The bulk of these functions are transformed--in a lot of small steps--from an extremely difficult-to-follow block of checksum processing code into a fairly simple, heavily commented equivalent. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Internet checksums are used for IPv4 header checksum, as well as TCP segment and UDP datagram checksums. Such a checksum represents the negated sum of adjacent pairs of bytes, using ones' complement arithmetic. One property of the Internet checkum is byte order independence [1]. Specifically, the sum of byte-swapped pairs is equal to the result of byte swapping the sum of those same pairs when not byte-swapped. So for example if a, b, c, d, y, and z are hexadecimal digits, and PLUS represents ones' complement addition: If: ab PLUS cd = yz Then: ba PLUS dc = zy For this reason, there is no need to swap the order of bytes in the checksum value held in a message header, nor the one in the QMAPv4 trailer, in order to operate on them. In other words, we can determine whether the hardware-computed checksum matches the one in the message header without any byte swaps. (This patch leaves in place all existing type casts.)
