[RFC,v5,net-next,00/13] add support for VSC75XX control over SPI

Message

Colin Foster Dec. 18, 2021, 9:49 p.m. UTC

The patch set in general is to add support for the VSC7511, VSC7512,
VSC7513 and VSC7514 devices controlled over SPI. The driver is
believed to be fully functional for the internal phy ports (0-3) 
on the VSC7512. As I'll discuss, it is not yet functional for other
ports yet.


V5 is an overhaul of the framework. Instead of struct spi_device being
called directly into drivers/net/dsa/ocelot/ocelot_spi.c, it is now done
through drivers/net/mfd/ocelot-spi.c. The MFD layer is handled in
drivers/net/mfd/ocelot-core.c. At the end of this patch set, three
optional devices are supported: ocelot-pinctrl to control pins, 
mdio-mscc-miim to communicate on the external MDIO bus, and
ocelot-ext to manage the switch.

This structure seems to really clean things up. "ocelot_ext" comes in
around 650 lines now, down from 950 in v4. Much of that has moved to
ocelot-spi.c. All references to SPI have been removed from ocelot_ext. I
know lines of a file isn't a great metric of software design quality,
but I think they are related in this case.

My hope at the end of this RFC is to be able to split this into several
smaller patch sets. One set would add MFD + pinctrl, and possibly MDIO.
To the best of my current knowledge those drivers are functionally
complete and possibly ready for full "PATCH" status instead of RFC. 

Of note: the MFD uses hard-coded resources, while the MMIO version uses
DTS resources. If nothing else, I'll update the relevant documentation
accordingly.

A separate patch set would be to add switch capabilities. Since the
external phys are now functional, I can turn my focus to those
additional ports. 

That leads to a direct question: Is it acceptable to do switch
capabilities in two patch sets? Set 1 would add internal phy
functionality that currently works, set 2 would add PCS / SGMII support
to ports 4-7? For full transparency: I don't have Fib{re,er} 
hardware so I don't plan to develop that support. I simply won't be able
to test it.

As I mentioned in the last RFC:
The hardware setup I'm using for development is a beaglebone black, with
jumpers from SPI0 to the microchip VSC7512 dev board. The microchip dev 
board has been modified to not boot from flash, but wait for SPI. An
ethernet cable is connected from the beaglebone ethernet to port 0 of
the dev board.


The device tree I'm using for the VSC7512 is below, and has changed in
architecture significantly since V4:

The relevant boot log for the switch / MDIO bus is here. Of note: ports
4-7 are now properly probed before the switch comes up.

(I'm curious about those swp2 packets that trickle through...)

In order to make this work, I have modified the cpsw driver, and now the
cpsw_new driver, to allow for frames over 1500 bytes. Otherwise the
tagging protocol will not work between the beaglebone and the VSC7512. I
plan to eventually try to get those changes in mainline, but I don't
want to get distracted from my initial goal. I also had to change
bonecommon.dtsi to avoid using VLAN 0.


Lastly, this patch set relies on changes that have been merged in from
linux-pinctrl/next. kernel-test-robot will complain that the last two
patches won't compile and might not even apply. The path forward might
be to get the MFD / pinctrl into linux-pinctrl before the next merge
window. I doubt the ocelot-ext will be fully functional by then, though
it does feel close!


RFC history:
v1 (accidentally named vN)
	* Initial architecture. Not functional
	* General concepts laid out

v2
	* Near functional. No CPU port communication, but control over all
	external ports
	* Cleaned up regmap implementation from v1

v3
	* Functional
	* Shared MDIO transactions routed through mdio-mscc-miim
	* CPU / NPI port enabled by way of vsc7512_enable_npi_port /
	felix->info->enable_npi_port
	* NPI port tagging functional - Requires a CPU port driver that supports
	frames of 1520 bytes. Verified with a patch to the cpsw driver

v4
    * Functional
    * Device tree fixes
    * Add hooks for pinctrl-ocelot - some functionality by way of sysfs
    * Add hooks for pinctrl-microsemi-sgpio - not yet fully functional
    * Remove lynx_pcs interface for a generic phylink_pcs. The goal here
    is to have an ocelot_pcs that will work for each configuration of
    every port. 

v5
    * Restructured to MFD
    * Several commits were split out, submitted, and accepted
    * pinctrl-ocelot believed to be fully functional (requires commits
    from the linux-pinctrl tree)
    * External MDIO bus believed to be fully functional
