2019-01-31amd-xgbe: Fix mdio access for non-zero ports and clause 45 PHYsLendacky, Thomas1-6/+16
[ Upstream commit 5ab3121beeb76aa6090195b67d237115860dd9ec ] The XGBE hardware has support for performing MDIO operations using an MDIO command request. The driver mistakenly uses the mdio port address as the MDIO command request device address instead of the MDIO command request port address. Additionally, the driver does not properly check for and create a clause 45 MDIO command. Check the supplied MDIO register to determine if the request is a clause 45 operation (MII_ADDR_C45). For a clause 45 operation, extract the device address and register number from the supplied MDIO register and use them to set the MDIO command request device address and register number fields. For a clause 22 operation, the MDIO request device address is set to zero and the MDIO command request register number is set to the supplied MDIO register. In either case, the supplied MDIO port address is used as the MDIO command request port address.

2017-08-30amd-xgbe: Interrupt summary bits are h/w version dependentTom Lendacky1-3/+10
There is a difference in the bit position of the normal interrupt summary enable (NIE) and abnormal interrupt summary enable (AIE) between revisions of the hardware. For older revisions the NIE and AIE bits are positions 16 and 15 respectively. For newer revisions the NIE and AIE bits are positions 15 and 14. The effect in changing the bit position is that newer hardware won't receive AIE interrupts in the current version of the driver. Specifically, the driver uses this interrupt to collect statistics on when a receive buffer unavailable event occurs and to restart the driver/device when a fatal bus error occurs. Update the driver to set the interrupt enable bit based on the reported version of the hardware. Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@amd.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The hardware has the capability to perform checksum offload support (both Tx and Rx) and TSO support for VXLAN packets. Add the support required to enable this. The hardware can only support a single VXLAN port for offload. If more than one VXLAN port is added then the offload capabilities have to be disabled and can no longer be advertised.

2017-08-19amd-xgbe: Optimize DMA channel interrupt enablementLendacky, Thomas1-42/+35
Currently whenever the driver needs to enable or disable interrupts for a DMA channel it reads the interrupt enable register (IER), updates the value and then writes the new value back to the IER. Since the hardware does not change the IER, software can track this value and elimiate the need to read it each time. Add the IER value to the channel related data structure and use that as the base for enabling and disabling interrupts, thus removing the need for the MMIO read.

2017-08-19amd-xgbe: Update TSO packet statistics accuracyLendacky, Thomas1-1/+1

2017-06-29amd-xgbe: Adjust register settings to improve performanceLendacky, Thomas1-3/+23
Add support to change some general performance settings and to provide some performance settings based on the device that is probed.

2017-06-29amd-xgbe: Simplify the burst length settingsLendacky, Thomas1-49/+18
Currently the driver hardcodes the PBLx8 setting. Remove the need for specifying the PBLx8 setting and automatically calculate based on the specified PBL value. Since the PBLx8 setting applies to both Tx and Rx use the same PBL value for both of them. Also, the driver currently uses a bit field to set the AXI master burst len setting.

2017-03-16amd-xgbe: Fix jumbo MTU processing on newer hardwareLendacky, Thomas1-9/+11
Newer hardware does not provide a cumulative payload length when multiple descriptors are needed to handle the data. Once the MTU increases beyond the size that can be handled by a single descriptor, the SKB does not get built properly by the driver. The driver will now calculate the size of the data buffers used by the hardware. The first buffer of the first descriptor is for packet headers or packet headers and data when the headers can't be split. Subsequent descriptors in a multi-descriptor chain will not use the first buffer. The second buffer is used by all the descriptors in the chain for payload data. Based on whether the driver is processing the first, intermediate, or last descriptor it can calculate the buffer usage and build the SKB properly. Tested and verified on both old and new hardware.

2016-11-13amd-xgbe: Add support for new DMA interrupt modeLendacky, Thomas1-4/+11
The current per channel DMA interrupt support is based on an edge triggered interrupt that is not maskable. This results in having to call the disable_irq/enable_irq functions in order to prevent interrupts during napi processing. The hardware now has a way to configure the per channel DMA interrupt that will allow for masking the interrupt which prevents calling disable_irq/enable_irq now.

2016-11-13amd-xgbe: Add a workaround for Tx timestamp issueLendacky, Thomas1-3/+10
Update the reading of the Tx timestamp to account for a hardware issue on how the fields and interrupt are cleared. The "seconds" portion of the timestamp should be read first, followed by the "nanoseconds" portion. Reading the "nanoseconds" portion should clear the timestamp data and the interrupt. Because of an issue with the hardware this order is reversed and reading the "seconds" portion actually clears the timestamp. The code currently follows this workaround, but to guard against future versions where this is fixed add a field to the version data to indicate if the workaround is required or not.

Currently, the Rx and Tx fifos are evenly allocated between the hardware queues of the device. As more queues are instantiated, the fifo memory needs to be able to be allocated based on queue priority. This allows for higher priority queues to have more fifo memory than lower priority queues.

2016-02-17amd-xgbe: Mask auto-negotiation interrupts in ISRLendacky, Thomas1-4/+6
Currently the auto-negotiation interrupt handling disables the irq instead of masking off the interrupts. This was done because the phy library was originally used to read and write the PCS registers, which could not be performed in interrupt context. Now that the phy library is no longer used to read and write the PCS registers the interrupts can be masked off in the interrupt service routine eliminating the need to call disable_irq/enable_irq.

2016-02-17amd-xgbe: Fix the mapping of priorities to traffic classesLendacky, Thomas1-29/+21
The driver is checking the pfc_en field of the ieee_pfc structure to determine whether to associate a priority with a traffic class. This is incorrect since the pfc_en field is for determining if PFC is enabled for a traffic class. The association of priority to traffic class does not depend on whether the traffic class is enabled for PFC, so remove that check. Also, the mapping of priorities to traffic classes should be done when configuring the traffic classes and not the PFC support so move the priority to traffic class association from xgbe_config_dcb_pfc to xgbe_config_dcb_tc.

2015-10-28amd-xgbe: Fix race between access of desc and desc indexLendacky, Thomas1-1/+1
During Tx cleanup it's still possible for the descriptor data to be read ahead of the descriptor index. A memory barrier is required between the read of the descriptor index and the start of the Tx cleanup loop. This allows a change to a lighter-weight barrier in the Tx transmit routine just before updating the current descriptor index. Since the memory barrier does result in extra overhead on arm64, keep the previous change to not chase the current descriptor value. This prevents the execution of the barrier for each loop performed.

2015-10-23amd-xgbe: Use wmb before updating current descriptor countLendacky, Thomas1-1/+1
The code currently uses the lightweight dma_wmb barrier before updating the current descriptor count. Under heavy load, the Tx cleanup routine was seeing the updated current descriptor count before the updated descriptor information. As a result, the Tx descriptor was being cleaned up before it was used because it was not "owned" by the hardware yet, resulting in a Tx queue hang. Using the wmb barrier insures that the descriptor is updated before the descriptor counter preventing the Tx queue hang. For extra insurance, the Tx cleanup routine is changed to grab the current decriptor count on entry and uses that initial value in the processing loop rather than trying to chase the current value.

2015-03-20amd-xgbe: Remove Tx coalescingLendacky, Thomas1-4/+3
The Tx coalescing support in the driver was a software implementation for something lacking in the hardware. Using hrtimers, the idea was to trigger a timer interrupt after having queued a packet for transmit. Unfortunately, as the timer value was lowered, the timer expired before the hardware actually did the transmit and so it was racey and resulted in unnecessary interrupts. Remove the Tx coalescing support and hrtimer and replace with a Tx timer that is used as a reclaim timer in case of inactivity.
