* net: dsa: Add PHYLINK switch operationsFlorian Fainelli2018-05-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In preparation for adding support for PHYLINK within DSA, define a number of operations that we will need and that switch drivers can start implementing. Proper integration with PHYLINK will follow in subsequent patches. We start selecting PHYLINK (which implies PHYLIB) in net/dsa/Kconfig such that drivers can be guaranteed that this dependency is properly taken care of and can start referencing PHYLINK helper functions without requiring stubs or anything.

* net: dsa: Fix dependencies on bridgeAndrew Lunn2017-11-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DSA now uses one of the symbols exported by the bridge, br_vlan_enabled(). This has a stub, if the bridge is not enabled. However, if the bridge is enabled, we cannot have DSA built in and the bridge as a module, otherwise we get undefined symbols at link time: net/dsa/port.o: In function `dsa_port_vlan_add': net/dsa/port.c:255: undefined reference to `br_vlan_enabled' net/dsa/port.o: In function `dsa_port_vlan_del': net/dsa/port.c:270: undefined reference to `br_vlan_enabled' Reported-by: kbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.

To facilitate the integratation at the DSA driver level, we implement 3 types of operations: - port_join_bridge - port_leave_bridge - port_stp_update DSA will resolve which switch ports that are currently bridge port members as some Switch hardware/drivers need to know about that to limit the register programming to just the relevant registers (especially for slow MDIO buses). We also take care of setting the correct STP state when slave network devices are brought up/down while being bridge members. Finally, when a port is leaving the bridge, we make sure we set in BR_STATE_FORWARDING state, otherwise the bridge layer would leave it disabled as a result of having left the bridge.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 82167cb8c6b2f8166d5c7532e5ef4b5e0cc46a72 ('net: dsa/slave: Fix compilation warnings') fixed one possible invalid configuration (NET_DSA enabled with no trailer formats) but added others: drivers can select NET_DSA without its dependencies being met. It's not very useful to make either the DSA core or the tagging formats manually selectable without a driver to use them, so: 1. Define a hidden HAVE_NET_DSA option and move the dependencies of NET_DSA to that. While we're at it, drop the deprecated EXPERIMENTAL dependency. 2. Make NET_DSA and the drivers dependent on HAVE_NET_DSA. 3. Hide the tagging format options again. 4. Make drivers select both NET_DSA and the appropriate tagging format option.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for the Marvell 88E6131 switch chip. This chip only supports the original (ethertype-less) DSA tagging format. On the 88E6131, there is a PHY Polling Unit (PPU) which has exclusive access to each of the PHYs's MII management registers. If we want to talk to the PHYs from software, we have to disable the PPU and wait for it to complete its current transaction before we can do so, and we need to re-enable the PPU afterwards to make sure that the switch will notice changes in link state and speed on the individual ports as they occur. Since disabling the PPU is rather slow, and since MII management accesses are typically done in bursts, this patch keeps the PPU disabled for 10ms after a software access completes. This makes handling the PPU slightly more complex, but speeds up something like running ethtool on one of the switch slave interfaces from ~300ms to ~30ms on typical hardware.

* dsa: add support for original DSA tagging formatLennert Buytenhek2008-10-081-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most of the DSA switches currently in the field do not support the Ethertype DSA tagging format that one of the previous patches added support for, but only the original DSA tagging format. The original DSA tagging format carries the same information as the Ethertype DSA tagging format, but with the difference that it does not have an ethertype field. In other words, when receiving a packet that is tagged with an original DSA tag, there is no way of telling in eth_type_trans() that this packet is in fact a DSA-tagged packet. This patch adds a hook into eth_type_trans() which is only compiled in if support for a switch chip that doesn't support Ethertype DSA is selected, and which checks whether there is a DSA switch driver instance attached to this network device which uses the old tag format. If so, it sets the protocol field to ETH_P_DSA without looking at the packet, so that the packet ends up in the right place.

* net: Distributed Switch Architecture protocol supportLennert Buytenhek2008-10-081-0/+31
Distributed Switch Architecture is a protocol for managing hardware switch chips. It consists of a set of MII management registers and commands to configure the switch, and an ethernet header format to signal which of the ports of the switch a packet was received from or is intended to be sent to. The switches that this driver supports are typically embedded in access points and routers, and a typical setup with a DSA switch looks something like this: +-----------+ +-----------+ | | RGMII | | | +-------+ +------ 1000baseT MDI ("WAN") | | | 6-port +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN1") | CPU | | ethernet +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN2") | |MIImgmt| switch +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN3") | +-------+ w/5 PHYs +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN4") | | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ The switch driver presents each port on the switch as a separate network interface to Linux, polls the switch to maintain software link state of those ports, forwards MII management interface accesses to those network interfaces (e.g. as done by ethtool) to the switch, and exposes the switch's hardware statistics counters via the appropriate Linux kernel interfaces. This initial patch supports the MII management interface register layout of the Marvell 88E6123, 88E6161 and 88E6165 switch chips, and supports the "Ethertype DSA" packet tagging format. (There is no officially registered ethertype for the Ethertype DSA packet format, so we just grab a random one. The ethertype to use is programmed into the switch, and the switch driver uses the value of ETH_P_EDSA for this, so this define can be changed at any time in the future if the one we chose is allocated to another protocol or if Ethertype DSA gets its own officially registered ethertype, and everything will continue to work.)
