The IP101A_G_IRQ_CONF_STATUS register has bits to detect which
interrupts have fired. Implement the .did_interrupt callback to let the
PHY core know whether the interrupt was for this specific PHY.
This is useful for debugging interrupt problems with 32-pin IP101GR PHYs
where the interrupt line is shared with the RX_ERR (receive error
status) signal. The default values are:
- RX_ERR is enabled by default (LOW means that there is no receive
error)
- the PHY's interrupt line is configured "active low" by default
Without any additional changes there is a flood of interrupts if the
RX_ERR/INTR32 signal is configured in RX_ERR mode (which is the
default). Having a did_interrupt ensures that the PHY core returns
IRQ_NONE instead of endlessly triggering the PHY state machine.
Additionally the kernel will report this after a while:

The IP101A and IP101G series both have various models. Depending on the
board implementation we need a special property for the IP101GR (32-pin
LQFP package) PHY:
pin 21 ("RXER/INTR_32") outputs the "receive error" signal by default
(LOW means "normal operation", HIGH means that there's either a decoding
error of the received signal or that the PHY is receiving LPI). This pin
can also be switched to INTR32 mode, where the interrupt signal is
routed to this pin. The other PHYs don't need this special handling
because they have more pins available so the interrupt function gets a
dedicated pin.
This adds two properties to either select the "receive error" or
"interrupt" function of pin 21. Not specifying any function means that
the default set by the bootloader is used. This is required because the
IP101GR cannot be differentiated between other IP101 PHYs as the PHY
identification registers on all of these is 0x02430c54.
The IP101G (sold as die only, without package) may suffer from the same
issue depending on how it's integrated into a multi chip package by
another manufacturer. If only the RXER/INTR_32 pin is routed then the
users of the die-only variant may also have to explicitly configure the
mode of hte RXER/INTR_32 pin. This is the reason why no "is-ip101gr"
property was added. I have no evidence though which would confirm this
theory - so the binding itself is independent of that.

net/ncsi: Allow enabling multiple packages & channels
This series extends the NCSI driver to configure multiple packages
and/or channels simultaneously. Since the RFC series this includes a few
extra changes to fix areas in the driver that either made this harder or
were roadblocks due to deviations from the NCSI specification.
Patches 1 & 2 fix two issues where the driver made assumptions about the
capabilities of the NCSI topology.
Patches 3 & 4 change some internal semantics slightly to make multi-mode
easier.
Patch 5 introduces a cleaner way of reconfiguring the NCSI configuration
and keeping track of channel states.
Patch 6 implements the main multi-package/multi-channel configuration,
configured via the Netlink interface.
Readers who have an interesting NCSI setup - especially multi-package
with HWA - please test! I think I've covered all permutations but I
don't have infinite hardware to test on.
Changes in v2:
- Updated use of the channel lock in ncsi_reset_dev(), making the
channel invisible and leaving the monitor check to
ncsi_stop_channel_monitor().
- Fixed ncsi_channel_is_tx() to consider the state of channels in other
packages.
Changes in v3:
- Fixed bisectability bug in patch 1
- Consider channels on all packages in a few places when multi-package
is enabled.
- Avoid doubling up reset operations, and check the current driver state
before reset to let any running operations complete.
- Reorganise the LSC handler slightly to avoid enabling Tx twice.
Changes in v4:
- Fix failover in the single-channel case
- Better handle ncsi_reset_dev() entry during a current config/suspend
operation.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
This patch extends the ncsi-netlink interface with two new commands and
three new attributes to configure multiple packages and/or channels at
once, and configure specific failover modes.
NCSI_CMD_SET_PACKAGE mask and NCSI_CMD_SET_CHANNEL_MASK set a whitelist
of packages or channels allowed to be configured with the
NCSI_ATTR_PACKAGE_MASK and NCSI_ATTR_CHANNEL_MASK attributes
respectively. If one of these whitelists is set only packages or
channels matching the whitelist are considered for the channel queue in
ncsi_choose_active_channel().
These commands may also use the NCSI_ATTR_MULTI_FLAG to signal that
multiple packages or channels may be configured simultaneously. NCSI
hardware arbitration (HWA) must be available in order to enable
multi-package mode. Multi-channel mode is always available.
If the NCSI_ATTR_CHANNEL_ID attribute is present in the
NCSI_CMD_SET_CHANNEL_MASK command the it sets the preferred channel as
with the NCSI_CMD_SET_INTERFACE command. The combination of preferred
channel and channel whitelist defines a primary channel and the allowed
failover channels.
If the NCSI_ATTR_MULTI_FLAG attribute is also present then the preferred
channel is configured for Tx/Rx and the other channels are enabled only
for Rx.

When the NCSI driver is stopped with ncsi_stop_dev() the channel
monitors are stopped and the state set to "inactive". However the
channels are still configured and active from the perspective of the
network controller. We should suspend each active channel but in the
context of ncsi_stop_dev() the transmit queue has been or is about to be
stopped so we won't have time to do so.
Instead when ncsi_start_dev() is called if the NCSI topology has already
been probed then call ncsi_reset_dev() to suspend any channels that were
previously active. This resets the network controller to a known state,
provides an up to date view of channel link state, and makes sure that
mode flags such as NCSI_MODE_TX_ENABLE are properly reset.
In addition to ncsi_start_dev() use ncsi_reset_dev() in ncsi-netlink.c
to update the channel configuration more cleanly.

The concepts of a channel being 'active' and it having link are slightly
muddled in the NCSI driver. Tweak this slightly so that
NCSI_CHANNEL_ACTIVE represents a channel that has been configured and
enabled, and NCSI_CHANNEL_INACTIVE represents a de-configured channel.
This distinction is important because a channel can be 'active' but have
its link down; in this case the channel may still need to be configured
so that it may receive AEN link-state-change packets.

Currently the NCSI driver sends a select-package command to all possible
packages simultaneously to discover what packages are available. However
at this stage in the probe process the driver does not know if
hardware arbitration is available: if it isn't then this process could
cause collisions on the RMII bus when packages try to respond.
Update the probe loop to probe each package one by one, and once
complete check if HWA is universally supported.

NCSI hardware arbitration allows multiple packages to be enabled at once
and share the same wiring. If the NCSI driver recognises that HWA is
available it unconditionally enables all packages and channels; but that
is a configuration decision rather than something required by HWA.
Additionally the current implementation will not failover on link events
which can cause connectivity to be lost unless the interface is manually
bounced.
Retain basic HWA support but remove the separate configuration path to
enable all channels, leaving this to be handled by a later
implementation.

net: sched: gred: introduce per-virtual queue attributes
This series updates the GRED Qdisc. The Qdisc matches nfp offload very
well, but before we can offload it there are a number of improvements
to make.
First few patches add extack messages to the Qdisc and pass extack
to netlink validation.
Next a new netlink attribute group is added, to allow GRED to be
extended more easily. Currently GRED passes C structures as attributes,
and even an array of C structs for virtual queue configuration. User
space has hard coded the expected length of that array, so adding new
fields is not possible.
New two-level attribute group is added:
[TCA_GRED_VQ_LIST]
[TCA_GRED_VQ_ENTRY]
[TCA_GRED_VQ_DP]
[TCA_GRED_VQ_FLAGS]
[TCA_GRED_VQ_STAT_*]
[TCA_GRED_VQ_ENTRY]
[TCA_GRED_VQ_DP]
[TCA_GRED_VQ_FLAGS]
[TCA_GRED_VQ_STAT_*]
[TCA_GRED_VQ_ENTRY]
...
Statistics are dump only. Patch 4 switches the byte counts to be 64 bit,
and patch 5 introduces the new stats attributes for dump. Patch 6
switches RED flags to be per-virtual queue, and patch 7 allows them
to be dumped and set at virtual queue granularity.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Allow users to set and dump RED flags (ECN enabled and harddrop)
on per-virtual queue basis. Validation of attributes is split
from changes to make sure we won't have to undo previous operations
when we find out configuration is invalid.
The objective is to allow changing per-Qdisc parameters without
overwriting the per-vq configured flags.
Old user space will not pass the TCA_GRED_VQ_FLAGS attribute and
per-Qdisc flags will always get propagated to the virtual queues.
New user space which wants to make use of per-vq flags should set
per-Qdisc flags to 0 and then configure per-vq flags as it
sees fit. Once per-vq flags are set per-Qdisc flags can't be
changed to non-zero. Vice versa - if the per-Qdisc flags are
non-zero the TCA_GRED_VQ_FLAGS attribute has to either be omitted
or set to the same value as per-Qdisc flags.
Update per-Qdisc parameters:
per-Qdisc | per-VQ | result
0 | 0 | all vq flags updated
0 | non-0 | error (vq flags in use)
non-0 | 0 | -- impossible --
non-0 | non-0 | all vq flags updated

Update per-VQ state (flags parameter set):

straight way and the packet will finally be dropped once the dequeue()

We can save quite a few cycles and improve the overall behavior of the
qdisc if we drop all expired packets if the next packet is expired.
This should allow ETF to recover faster from bad situations. But
packet drops are still a very serious warning that the requirements
