Commit Message

Liviu Dudau May 29, 2023, 3:08 p.m. UTC
This WiFi AP is based on a MT7621 SoC with 128MiB RAM, 128MiB NAND,
a MT7603 2.4GHz WiFi and a MT7663 5GHz WiFi chips integrated on the board,
connected to the main SoC over PCIe.

The GMAC1 on the SoC is connected to PHY0 on the GSW and can be used to
improve routing bandwidth.

The device uses NMBM over NAND, which is not currently supported in the
mainline, so NAND node is skipped in this revision.

I've made the changes to look similar to the gnubee-gb-pc2, and things mostly
work, with the exception that I can mount an NFS root filesystem only on "lan2"
interface at boot time. All other interfaces (ports) hang forever waiting for
an DHCP response from my server. The only difference is where I plug in the
ethernet cable, no other change (not even a restart) on the server.

Best regards,
Liviu

Do you mean MT7662 5GHz WiFi?

This is not always true, I'd prefer you remove this sentence from the 
patch log.

What's going on here? Just do 'reg = <0x00000000 0x08000000>;'.

Isn't just adding "earlycon" to bootargs enough?

We don't use this anymore.

What's this got to do with this device?

Why does this device need i2c?

Do both WiFi chips work by just enabling pcie? I was expecting 
'compatible = "mediatek,mt76";' on pcie@0,0 and pcie@1,0.

I thought you said this device had NAND flash, not NOR.

This sounds like a userspace configuration issue.

I already suggested not doing this, please remove this line.

Actually it's MT76*1*3. Will fix for v3.

If your comment is about the statement not being always true in general, then
I agree. However for this device the port marked as WAN on HC220 v1 is the
second port on the switch and according to the DSA bindings docs only PHY0
or PHY4 can be connected to GMAC1, so I picked the one that worked (PHY4 did
not). More on that at the end of the email.

Duh, I feel stupid. It's 8250 and (as you mention bellow) not needed to
enable early boot messages.

I've copied it from disassembled vendor device tree. Is this not needed

This is the NAND Flash Controller bindind. Left over from interrupted
development of the NAND support. Will remove for v3.

It doesn't. I was curious if there was anything hanging on that bus so I've
enabled it to scan it. Will remove for v3.

Nothing else is needed and I can modprobe the mt7603e and mt7615e modules just
fine, with the devices becoming available one I put the appropriate firmware in
the right place.

Appologies, I will remove this for now as I haven't finished looking into

It would be nice if you can provide some explanation to some of your requests
so that I can learn more about this. This is my first time dipping my toes
on MIPS and MT7621 world, so I don't have that much experience and would like
to know more.

Which userspace? On the server side? I don't touch anything there, only
change the ethernet port where the cable is connected on the device and
reboot. It only works for "lan2".

If you're talking about userspace on the device, I don't agree as there is nothing
loaded there but the kernel, and it is trying to mount the NFS root.

I have to admit that I don't really understand how the whole MT7530 DSA is wired
inside this device. I mostly did trial and error and it is very possible that what
I've got were just half results that are more confusing that they should be. The
vendor device tree uses the old bindings and drivers, with the gsw node outside
of the ethernet one and also a mtk-hnat_v1 node that seems to bundle all ports
under one single MAC address, so it's hard to understand from there how things work.
I was trying to both enable NFS root and squeeze the maximum speed from the switch,
so I thought I need to enable gmac1 and use the PHYs of the switch to enable 2Gbps
routing. When I've tried PHY4 things didn't work, while with PHY0 I've got all the
connections to work (but only if I've used LAN2 as the initial connection to the
NFS server).

Now I've tried removing the two nodes as suggested and I can mount the NFS root over
any of the three physical connections, but the iperf3 speed is only about 512Mbits/sec
vs the 730Mbits/sec that I was getting with the GMAC1 enabled.

Anyway, none of this is relevant for the upstreaming of the device tree and I will
make the requested changes. Thanks for spending time reviewing the patches.

Best regards,
Liviu

No, you can just remove this node.

Ok I checked the mainline Linux source code, looks like the MT76 driver 
doesn't look for the compatible string at all. I suppose the compatible 
string is there for the purposes of describing the hardware and checking 
whether the devicetree bindings for the hardware are proper. Therefore, 
I would like you to add the compatible string regardless. Should look 
something like this:

&pcie {
	status = "okay";

	pcie@0,0 {
		compatible = "mediatek,mt76";
	};

	pcie@1,0 {
		compatible = "mediatek,mt76";
	};
};

See if both radios work with these bindings.

The bindings above are used for the PHY muxing feature. Like I said on 
my previous mail, I would rather use the changing DSA conduit feature 
instead which makes the PHY muxing feature redundant. It is also better 
than PHY muxing as you'll be able to choose freely which DSA user port 
will be affine to which DSA conduit interface, from userspace. Like so:

ip link set lan1 type dsa conduit eth1

I see port@0 is defined on the DSA switch node which averts the PHY 
muxing feature so the bindings above are already unnecessary.

GMAC1 is enabled by default on mt7621.dtsi so your 512 Mbps test also 
had GMAC1 enabled, your problem is not there. What I did notice a while 
back with my MT7621 board is that I get better performance on the port 
that uses the PHY muxing feature. I assume this is what's causing the 
speed difference on your device.

Anyway, this SoC is not very efficient at processing packets at 
software. You'll get ~933 Mbps bandwidth whether you do PHY muxing or 
not when using the hardware flow offloading feature of the MediaTek 
ethernet driver. Here's the relevant documentation:
