[net-next,v3,00/11] Add PCS core support

Message

Sean Anderson April 15, 2025, 7:33 p.m. UTC

This series adds support for creating PCSs as devices on a bus with a
driver (patch 3). As initial users,

- The Lynx PCS (and all of its users) is converted to this system (patch 5)
- The Xilinx PCS is broken out from the AXI Ethernet driver (patches 6-8)
- The Cadence MACB driver is converted to support external PCSs (namely
  the Xilinx PCS) (patches 9-10).

To build documentation without errors, this series requires commit
de258fa8ca8d ("scripts: kernel-doc: fix parsing function-like typedefs
(again)"), currently applied to docs-next [1].

Care has been taken to ensure backwards-compatibility. The main source
of this is that many PCS devices lack compatibles and get detected as
PHYs. To address this, pcs_get_by_fwnode_compat allows drivers to edit
the devicetree to add appropriate compatibles.

There is another series [2] with the same goal by Christian Marangi. In
comparison, I believe this series

- Implements a simpler and more-robust method of PCS access.
- Provides a more-direct upgrade path for existing MAC and PCS drivers.

Changes in v3:
- Add '>' modifier for paragraph to description
- Adjust axienet_xilinx_pcs_get for changes to pcs_find_fwnode API
- Drop patches destined for other trees, as they have either already
  been applied or are no longer necessary.
- Edit description to reference clocks instead of resets
- Remove support for #pcs-cells. Upon further investigation, the
  requested functionality can be accomplished by specifying the PCS's
  fwnode manually.
- Select PCS_XILINX unconditionally

Changes in v2:
- Add fallbacks for pcs_get* and pcs_put
- Add support for #pcs-cells
- Change base compatible to just xlnx,pcs
- Change compatible to just xlnx,pcs
- Defer devicetree updates for another series
- Drop #clock-cells description
- Drop PCS_ALTERA_TSE which was accidentally added while rebasing
- Move #clock-cells after compatible
- Move update to macb_pcs_get_state to previous patch
- Remove outdated comment
- Remove second example
- Remove unused variable
- Remove unused variable lynx_properties
- Rename pcs-modes to xlnx,pcs-modes
- Reorder pcs_handle to come before suffix props
- Reword commit message
- Rework xilinx_pcs_validate to just clear out half-duplex modes instead
  of constraining modes based on the interface.
