First || is corrected to && in the ethtool compat code. Next patch decreases the stack allocation size. On the nfp side after further discussions with the manufacturing team we decided to realign the serial number contents slightly and rename one of the other fields from "vendor" to "mfr", short for "manufacture". v2: - add patch 3 - move board maker as a generic attribute. ==================== Signed-off-by:

When mvpp2 configures the flow control modes in mvpp2_xlg_config() for 10G mode, it only ever set the flow control enable bits. There is no mechanism to clear these bits, which means that userspace is unable to use standard APIs to disable flow control (the only way is to poke the register directly.) Fix the missing bit clearance to allow flow control to be disabled. This means that, by default, as there is no negotiation in 10G modes with mvpp2, flow control is now disabled rather than being rx-only. Signed-off-by:

Add support for runtime determination of what the PHY supports, by adding a new function to the phy driver. The get_features call should set the phydev->supported member with the features the PHY supports. It is only called if phydrv->features is NULL. This requires minor changes to pause. The PHY driver should not set pause abilities, except for when it has odd cause capabilities, e.g. pause cannot be disabled. With this change, phydev->supported already contains the drivers abilities, including pause. So rather than considering phydrv->features, look at the phydev->supported, and enable pause if neither of the pause bits are already set. Signed-off-by:

Function tls_sw_recvmsg() dequeues multiple records from stream parser and decrypts them. In case the decryption is done by async accelerator, the records may get submitted for decryption while the previous ones may not have been decryted yet. For tls1.3, the record type is known only after decryption. Therefore, for tls1.3, tls_sw_recvmsg() may submit records for decryption even if it gets 'handshake' records after 'data' records. These intermediate 'handshake' records may do a key updation. By the time new keys are given to ktls by userspace, it is possible that ktls has already submitted some records i(which are encrypted with new keys) for decryption using old keys. This would lead to decrypt failure. Therefore, async decryption of records should be disabled for tls1.3. Fixes: 130b392c ("net: tls: Add tls 1.3 support") Signed-off-by:

Russell King says: ==================== mvpp2 phylink fixes Having spent a while debugging issues with Sven Auhagen, it appears that the mvpp2 network driver's phylink support isn't quite correct. This series fixes that up, but, despite being tested locally, by Sven, and by Antoine, I would prefer it to be applied to net-next so that there is time for more people to test before it hits -rc or stable backports. The symptoms were that although PHYs would come up, the GMAC never reported that the link was up, or in some cases it did report link up but packets would not flow. Various approaches were tried to work around that, such as switching to in-band negotiation from PHY mode, but ultimately the problem was in the way mvpp2 was being programmed. This series addresses that by, essentially, making mvpp2 follow the same implementation pattern as mvneta: we configure the GMAC in three stages: 1) the PHY interface mode 2) the negotiation advert 3) the negotiation style Another issue is that mvpp2 was always taking the link down each time its mac_config method was called: this is disruptive when the link is already up, and we're just updating settings such as flow control. There are some circumstances where we make the call despite there being no changes (eg, when phylink is polling a GPIO or using a custom link state function.) This series depends on two previous patches already sent for net-next: net: marvell: mvpp2: fix lack of link interrupts net: marvell: mvpp2: use phy_interface_mode_is_8023z() helper There is one last patch which deals with link status interrupts, which I'll send separately because I think there's other considerations, but that should not hold up this series of patches. ==================== Signed-off-by:

phylink already limits which interface modes are able to call the MACs AN restart function, but in any case, the commentry seems incorrect: the AN restart bit does not automatically clear when set. This has been found via manual setting using devmem2, and we can observe that the AN does indeed restart and complete, yet the AN restart bit remains set. Explicitly clear the AN restart bit.

When reading the pause bits in mac_link_state, mvpp2 was reporting the state of the "active pause" bits, which are set when the MAC is in pause mode. This is not what phylink wants - we want the negotiated pause state. Fix the definition so we read the correct bits. Tested-by:

mac_config() can be called at any point, and the expected behaviour from MAC drivers is to only reprogram when necessary - and certainly avoid taking the link down on every call. Unfortunately, mvpp2 does exactly that - it takes the link down, and reprograms everything, and then releases the forced-link down. This is bad, it can cause the link to bounce: - SFP detects signal, disables LOS indication. - SFP code calls into phylink, calling phylink_sfp_link_up() which triggers a resolve. - phylink_resolve() calls phylink_get_mac_state() and finds the MAC reporting link up. - phylink wants to configure the pause mode on the MAC, so calls phylink_mac_config() - mvpp2 takes the link down temporarily, generating a MAC link down event followed by another MAC link event. - phylink calls mac_link_up() and then processes the MAC link down event. - phylink_resolve() gets called again, registers the link down, and calls mach_link_down() before re-running itself. - phylink_resolve() starts again at step 3 above. This sequence repeats. GMAC versions prior to mvpp2 do not require the link to be taken down except when certain link properties (eg, switching between SGMII and 1000base-X mode, or enabling/disabling in-band negotiation) are changed. Implement this for mvpp2. Tested-by:

It appears that the mvpp22 can get stuck with SGMII negotiation. The symptoms are that in-band negotiation never completes and the partner (eg, PHY) never reports SGMII link up, or if it supports negotiation bypass, goes into negotiation bypass mode (which will happen when the PHY sees that the MAC is alive but gets no response.) Triggering the PHY end of the link to re-negotiate results in the bypass bit clearing on the PHY, and then re-setting - indicating that the problem is at the mvpp22 GMAC end. Asserting the GMAC reset and de-asserting it resolves the issue. Arrange to assert the GMAC reset at probe time, and deassert it only after we have configured the GMAC for the appropriate mode. This resolves the issue. Tested-by:

Sven Auhagen reported issues with negotiation on a couple of his platforms using a mixture of SFP and PHYs in various different modes. Debugging to root cause proved difficult, but essentially the problem comes down to the mvpp2 phylink implementation being slightly at odds with what is expected. phylink operates in three modes: phy, fixed-link, and in-band mode. In the first two modes, the expected behaviour from a MAC driver is that phylink resolves the operating mode and passes the mode to the MAC driver for it to program, including when the link should be brought up or taken down. This is basically the same as the libphy approach. This does not negate the requirement to advertise a correct control word for interface modes that have control words where that can be reasonably controlled. The second mode is in-band mode, where the MAC is expected to use the in-band control word to determine the operating mode. The mvneta driver implements the correct pattern required to support this: configure the port interface type separately from the in-band mode(s). This is now specified in the phylink documentation patches. mvpp2 was programming in-band mode for SGMII and the 802.3z modes no what, and avoided forcing the link up in fixed/phy modes. This caused a problem with some boards where the PHY is by default programmed to enter AN bypass mode, the PHY would report that the link was up, but the mvpp2 never completed the exchange of control word. Another issue that mvpp2 has is it sets SGMII AN format control word for both SGMII and 802.3z modes. The format of the control word is defined by MVPP2_GMAC_INBAND_AN_MASK, which should be set for SGMII and clear for 802.3z. Available Marvell documentation for earlier GMAC implementations does not make this clear, but this has been ascertained via extensive testing on earlier GMAC implementations, and then confirmed with a Macchiatobin Single Shot connected to a Clearfog: when MVPP2_GMAC_INBAND_AN_MASK is set, the clearfog does not receive the advertised pause mode settings. Lastly, there is no flow control in the in-band control word in Cisco SGMII, setting the flow control autonegotiation bit even with a PHY that has the Marvell extension to send this information does not result in the flow control being enabled at the MAC. We need to do this manually using the information provided via phylink. Re-code mvpp2's mac_config() and mac_link_up() to follow this pattern. This allows Sven Auhagen's board and Macchiatobin to reliably bring the link up with the 88e1512 PHY with phylink operating in PHY mode with COMPHY built as a module but the rest of the networking built-in, and u-boot having brought up the interface. in-band mode requires an additional patch to resolve another problem.
