[PATCH net-next v3 0/4] net: fec: fix refclk enable for SMSC LAN8710/20

From: Richard Leitner <hidden>
Date: 2017-12-05 13:27:44

From: Richard Leitner <richard.leitner@skidata.com>

This patch series fixes the use of the SMSC LAN8710/20 with a Freescale ETH
when the refclk is generated by the FSL.

This patch depends on the "phylib: Add device reset GPIO support" patch
submitted by Geert Uytterhoeven/Sergei Shtylyov, see:
	https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10090149/

Changes v3:
	- use phylib to hard-reset the PHY
	- implement reset delays in phylib
	- add new phylib API & flag (PHY_RST_AFTER_CLK_EN) to determine if a PHY
	  is affected

Changes v2:
	- simplify and fix fec_reset_phy function to support multiple calls
	- include: linux: phy: harmonize phy_id{,_mask} type
	- reset the phy instead of not turning the clock on and off
	  (which would have caused a power consumption regression)

Richard Leitner (4):
  phylib: Add device reset delay support
  phylib: add reset after clk enable support
  net: phy: smsc: LAN8710/20: add PHY_RST_AFTER_CLK_EN flag
  net: fec: add phy_reset_after_clk_enable() support

[PATCH net-next v3 1/4] phylib: Add device reset delay support

From: Richard Leitner <hidden>
Date: 2017-12-05 13:26:41

From: Richard Leitner <richard.leitner@skidata.com>

Some PHYs need a minimum time after the reset gpio was asserted and/or
deasserted. To ensure we meet these timing requirements add two new
optional devicetree parameters for the phy: reset-delay-us and
reset-post-delay-us.

[PATCH net-next v3 2/4] phylib: add reset after clk enable support

From: Richard Leitner <hidden>
Date: 2017-12-05 13:26:43

From: Richard Leitner <richard.leitner@skidata.com>

Some PHYs need the refclk to be a continuous clock. Therefore they don't
allow turning it off and on again during operation. Nonetheless such a
clock switching is performed by some ETH drivers (namely FEC [1]) for
power saving reasons. An example for an affected PHY is the
SMSC/Microchip LAN8720 in "REF_CLK In Mode".

In order to provide a uniform method to overcome this problem this patch
adds a new phy_driver flag (PHY_RST_AFTER_CLK_EN) and corresponding
function phy_reset_after_clk_enable() to the phylib. These should be
used to trigger reset of the PHY after the refclk is switched on again.

This patch depends on the "phylib: Add device reset GPIO support" patch
submitted by Geert Uytterhoeven/Sergei Shtylyov [2].

[PATCH net-next v3 3/4] net: phy: smsc: LAN8710/20: add PHY_RST_AFTER_CLK_EN flag

From: Richard Leitner <hidden>
Date: 2017-12-05 13:26:46

From: Richard Leitner <richard.leitner@skidata.com>

The Microchip/SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720 PHYs need (according to their
datasheet [1]) a continuous REF_CLK when configured to "REF_CLK In Mode".
Therefore set the PHY_RST_AFTER_CLK_EN flag for those PHYs to let the
ETH driver reset them after the REF_CLK is enabled.

[PATCH net-next v3 4/4] net: fec: add phy_reset_after_clk_enable() support

From: Richard Leitner <hidden>
Date: 2017-12-05 13:27:18

From: Richard Leitner <richard.leitner@skidata.com>

Some PHYs (for example the SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720) doesn't allow turning
the refclk on and off again during operation (according to their
datasheet). Nonetheless exactly this behaviour was introduced for power
saving reasons by commit e8fcfcd5684a ("net: fec: optimize the clock management to save power").
Therefore add support for the phy_reset_after_clk_enable function from
phylib to mitigate this issue.

Generally speaking this issue is only relevant if the ref clk for the
PHY is generated by the SoC and therefore the PHY is configured to
"REF_CLK In Mode". In our specific case (PCB) this problem does occur at
about every 10th to 50th POR of an LAN8710 connected to an i.MX6SOLO
SoC. The typical symptom of this problem is a "swinging" ethernet link.
Similar issues were reported by users of the NXP forum:
	https://community.nxp.com/thread/389902
	https://community.nxp.com/message/309354
With this patch applied the issue didn't occur for at least a few
hundret PORs of our board.

of_property_read_u32() should not change the variable you pass to it,
if it does not find the property. So you can change this to:

	phy->mdio.reset_delay = 0;

Some PHYs need the refclk to be a continuous clock. Therefore they don't
allow turning it off and on again during operation. Nonetheless such a
clock switching is performed by some ETH drivers (namely FEC [1]) for
power saving reasons. An example for an affected PHY is the
SMSC/Microchip LAN8720 in "REF_CLK In Mode".

In order to provide a uniform method to overcome this problem this patch
adds a new phy_driver flag (PHY_RST_AFTER_CLK_EN) and corresponding
function phy_reset_after_clk_enable() to the phylib. These should be
used to trigger reset of the PHY after the refclk is switched on again.

This patch depends on the "phylib: Add device reset GPIO support" patch
submitted by Geert Uytterhoeven/Sergei Shtylyov [2].

The Microchip/SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720 PHYs need (according to their

Therefore set the PHY_RST_AFTER_CLK_EN flag for those PHYs to let the
ETH driver reset them after the REF_CLK is enabled.

Geert already pointed this out, but he said it's possible to omit also the zeroing of the variables.

If of_property_read_u32() fails, it doesn't write to its output
parameter.
As the structure should be zeroed during allocation, you can just
write:

of_property_read_u32(child, "reset-delay-us",&phy->mdio.reset_delay);
of_property_read_u32(child, "reset-post-delay-us",
                     &phy->mdio.reset_post_delay);
If that's ok I'll take the shorter (Geerts) suggestion for v4.

Nonetheless thanks for your quick feedback!

Some PHYs (for example the SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720) doesn't allow turning
the refclk on and off again during operation (according to their datasheet).
Nonetheless exactly this behaviour was introduced for power saving reasons
by commit e8fcfcd5684a ("net: fec: optimize the clock management to save
power").
Therefore add support for the phy_reset_after_clk_enable function from
phylib to mitigate this issue.

Generally speaking this issue is only relevant if the ref clk for the PHY is
generated by the SoC and therefore the PHY is configured to "REF_CLK In
Mode". In our specific case (PCB) this problem does occur at about every 10th
to 50th POR of an LAN8710 connected to an i.MX6SOLO SoC. The typical
symptom of this problem is a "swinging" ethernet link.
Similar issues were reported by users of the NXP forum:

of our board.

The problem here is that in fec_enet_open() the fec_enet_clk_enable()

(which holds the flags).
