The need to map Ethtool forced speeds to  Ethtool supported link modes is
common among drivers. To support this move the supported link modes maps
implementation from the qede driver. This is an efficient solution
introduced in commit 1d4e4ecccb11 ("qede: populate supported link modes
maps on module init") for qede driver.

ethtool_forced_speed_maps_init() should be called during driver init
with an array of struct ethtool_forced_speed_map to populate the
mapping. The macro ETHTOOL_FORCED_SPEED_MAP is a helper to initialized
the struct ethtool_forced_speed_map.

The qede driver was compile tested only.

Hi Paul,

thanks for your efforts in adding a mechanism to share code.
It's a great step in the right direction.

Perhaps I am on the wrong track here, but it seems to me that the approach
you have taken, which is to move the definitions of the symbols into a
header file, is, perhaps, not the best. For one thing it will end up with
duplicate definitions of the symbols - one for each object in which they
are included.

For another, and this more a symtom than an actual problem,
a (W=1) build now complains about symbols that are defined but not used.

./include/linux/ethtool.h:1190:18: warning: 'ethtool_forced_speed_800000' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]  1190 | static const u32 ethtool_forced_speed_800000[] __initconst = {
...

I suspect a better approach is to leave the symbol definitions in
a .c file, one that is linked in such a way that it is available
to code that uses it - be it modules or built-in. And to make
declarations of those symbols available via a header file.

Is there any way to reuse this table:

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/net/phy/phy-core.c#L161

Seems silly to have multiple tables if this one can be made to work.
It is also used a lot more than anything you will add, which has just
two users so far, so problems with it a likely to be noticed faster.

Please re-layout this as follows:

1. caps;
2. cap_arr;
3. arr_size;
4. speed.

Or in any other way that wouldn't provoke holes on 64-bit systems.
I wasn't really familiar with that when initially adding these
definitions :D

2 reasons I don't like this:

1. static const in a header file.
   This implies code duplication -- every object file will have its own
   copy. If we want to reuse them, they should be declared global in one
   place (somewhere in net/ethtool), without __initconst unfortunately.
2. __initconst in a header file.
   I can refer to that declaration somewhere not in the initialization
   code and catch modpost or section reference issues. If we want to
   make those global and accessible from the drivers, it should not have
   any non-standard section placement.

BTW, can't we share the target bitmaps instead? I mean, why not
initialize those somewhere in net/ethtool and export them, instead of
exporting the source of initialization?

Alternatively, to avoid passing size here, you can just terminate @maps
array with zeroed element and treat it as the array end.

These two are needed only if your @map really refer to
__initdata/__initconst variables.

Not sure ioctl.c in the best place for that.

I think it would be better to leave the maps in the code of respective drivers, as they are too much hardware related. 
Even for a single speed, the sets of supported link modes may vary between the devices.

Isn't that what the per-driver bitwise AND is doing after the fact?
That's how qede worked: it converted the mapping from speed and then
combined it with some device support maps to avoid allowing speeds which
weren't supported..

it would be nice to reuse the same mapping that is common everywhere. I
suspect the PHY code already has some mechanism to support device
specific since not all PHYs support all link modes either....

phydev->supported is initialised with all the link modes a PHY
supports. The MAC driver when gets a chance to remove any it does not
support,

phylink has similar concepts, the MAC, PHY, and SFP declare what they
each support and then it all gets combined to resolve to a link mode,
to use.

So it should be possible to make this generic with the help of the MAC
driver indicating a mask of what is actually supports.

BTW,

drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qed/qed_main.c
drivers/net/pcs/pcs-xpcs.c

also have similar stuff and could probably make use of the generic stuff
you're doing as well (qed_main was also done by me).
Not speaking of

drivers/net/phy/phylink.c

We probably should unify all that...

Let me think how we could do that.
Andrew's idea is good. But most high-speed NICs, which have a standalone
management firmware for PHY, don't use phylib/phylink.
So in order to be able to unify all that, they should have ->supported
bitmap somewhere else. Not sure struct net_device is the best place...

If I recall Phylink logics correctly (it's been a while since I last
time was working with my embedded project),

1) in the NIC (MAC) driver, you initialize ->supported with *speeds* and
   stuff like duplex, no link modes;
2) Phylink core sets the corresponding link mode bits;
3) phylib core then clears the bits unsupported by the PHY IIRC

The third step in case with those NICs with FW-managed PHYs should be
done manually in the MAC driver somewhere. Like "I am qede and I don't
support mode XX at 50Gbps, but support the rest, so I clear that one bit".
Then the networking core should be able to play this association game
itself. That would remove a good amount of boilerplating.

I would probably keep it in the driver priv structure, and just pass
it as needed. So long as you only need one or two values, i don't see
the need for a shared structure.

No, not really.

All i think you need is a low level helper. So don't worry too much
about how phylink works, just implement that low level helper passing
in values as needed, not phylib or phylink structure.

What i don't want is a second infrastructure to be built for those MAC
drivers which don't use Linux to control the PHY. Either share a few
helpers, or swap to phylink.

I don't think that will work. New bits keep getting added, more speeds
added. So 'support the rest' is not well defined. You need an explicit
list of link modes the driver needs. We already have code to convert
an array of link mode bits into an actual mask, e.g:

        linkmode_set_bit_array(phy_basic_t1_features_array,
                               ARRAY_SIZE(phy_basic_t1_features_array),
                               phy_basic_t1_features);

I'd love those drivers to be swapped to phylink, but I doubt that will
happen :D

Now I got lost a bit in what we do really want to share now, as less
sharing was indirectly rejected by "you can share more, let PHY/whatever
take care of this" and now wider sharing was indirectly rejected by
"that won't work" :D
From what I understood, all we want now is the stuff introduced by the
original patch from that thread, but without "generic" speed arrays
definitions?

Let me check if I understand correctly- is that what was sent with the
v3 [1] , with the initialization helper (ethtool_forced_speed_maps_init)
and the structure map in the ethtool code? Or do you have another helper
in mind?

Sorry for the late reply, been on vacation.

The main thing is you try to reuse the table:

static const struct phy_setting settings[] = {}

If you can build your helper on top of phy_lookup_setting() even
better. You don't need a phy_device to use those.

Thank you for the clarification, I'll write it and propose in the next version.
Most probably split this refactoring from the original series.

Thank for the hint Andrew! I took a look into the phy-core code,
and a little into phylink. However, I still have the same concern
regarding modes that are supported/unsupported by hardware (managed
by the firmware in our case). Let's say I'm only looking for duplex
modes and iterate over speeds with advertised modes map as an argument
for phy_lookup_setting. In this case, I still need another table/map of
hardware compatible link modes to check against. Theese are actually
the maps we'd like to keep in the driver (and proposed in [1]), so
maybe the simple intersect check between them and the advertised modes
is sufficient?

Here I'd like to add that we're planning to try to use Phylink in ice
soon. It may take a while and will most likely require core code
expansion, since Phylink was originally developed for embedded HW and
DeviceTree and doesn't fully support PCI devices.
Let's see how it goes.

The idea was you have a mask of link modes which your hardware
actually supports. You then ask the core code, give me a link mode
which fulfils this speed and duplex, taking into account the mask.

Cool.

And yes, not having device tree will require some changes, but i don't
think it will require changes to the core of phylink, just the edges
where you instantiate phylink, using a different configuration
mechanism.
