Currently small MSS values may require too many TSO descriptors for the default queue size. This commit prevents this situation by fixing the maximum supported TSO number of segments to 100 and by setting a minimum Tx queue size. The minimum Tx queue size is set so that at least 2 worst-case skb can be accommodated. In addition, the queue stop and wake thresholds values are adjusted accordingly. The queue is stopped when there's room for only 1 worst-case skb and waked when the number of descriptors is half that value.

As specified in the datasheet, the driver can set the "L4Chk_Mode" flag (bit 10) in the Tx descriptor command/status to specify that a frame is not IP fragmented and that the controller is in charge of generating the TCP/IP checksum. This must be used together with the "GL4chk" flag (bit 17). These two flags allow to avoid setting the initial TCP checksum in the l4i_chk field of the Tx descriptor, which is needed to support software TSO.

Commit 5445eaf3 ('mvneta: Try to fix mvneta when compiled as module') fixed the mvneta driver to make it work properly when loaded as a module in SGMII configuration, which was tested successful by the author on the Armada XP OpenBlocks AX3, which uses SGMII. However, some other platforms, namely the Armada XP GP don't use SGMII, but a QSGMII connection between the MAC and the PHY, and this case was not supported by the mvneta driver, which was relying on configuration put in place by the bootloader. While this works when the mvneta driver is built-in (because clocks are not gated), it breaks when mvneta is built as a module, because the clock is gated (all configuration is lost) and then re-enabled when the mvneta driver is loaded. In order to support all of RGMII, SGMII and QSGMII, this commit reworks how the PHY interface configuration is done, and simplifies it: it removes the mvneta_port_sgmii_config() and mvneta_gmac_rgmii_set() functions, which were strange because mvneta_gmac_rgmii_set() was called in all cases, even for SGMII configurations. Also, the mvneta_gmac_rgmii_set() function was taking a boolean as argument, which was always true. Instead, all the PHY interface configuration logic is moved into the mvneta_port_power_up() function, in a much simpler 'switch' construct, with four cases: - QSGMII: the RGMIIEn bit, the PCSEn bit in GMAC_CTRL_2 are set, and the SERDES is configured in QSGMII. Technically speaking, configuring the SERDES of the first port would be sufficient, but it is simpler to do it on all ports. - SGMII: the RGMIIEn bit, the PCSEn bit in GMAC_CTRL_2 are set, and the SERDES is configured as SGMII. - RGMII: the RGMIIEn bit in GMAC_CTRL_2 is set. The PCSEn bit is kept cleared, and no SERDES configuration is done, because RGMII is not using SERDES lanes. - other: an error is returned. For this reason, the mvneta_port_power_up() now returns an int instead of nothing, and the return value is checked by mvneta_probe(). This has been successfully tested on: * Armada XP DB, which has two RGMII and two SGMII connections * Armada XP GP, which uses QSGMII for its four interfaces * Armada 370 Mirabox, which has two RGMII connections Signed-off-by: NThomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This reverts commit e3a8786c. While this commit allows to use the mvneta driver as a module on some configurations, it breaks other configurations even if mvneta is used built-in. This breakage is due to the fact that on some RGMII platforms, the PCS bit has to be set, and on some other platforms, it has to be cleared. At the moment, we lack informations to know exactly the significance of this bit (the datasheet only says "enables PCS"), and so we can't produce a patch that will work on all platforms at this point. And since this change is breaking the network completely for many users, it's much better to revert it for now. We'll come back later with a proper fix that takes into account all platforms. Basically: * Armada XP GP is configured as RGMII-ID, and needs the PCS bit to be set. * Armada 370 Mirabox is configured as RGMII-ID, and needs the PCS bit to be cleared. And at the moment, we don't know how to make the distinction between those two cases. One hint is that the Armada XP GP appears in fact to be using a QSGMII connection with the PHY (Quad-SGMII), but configuring it as SGMII doesn't work, while RGMII-ID works. This needs more investigation, but in the mean time, let's unbreak the network for all those users.

The mvneta driver currently uses of_iomap(), which has two drawbacks: it doesn't request the resource, and it isn't devm-style so some error handling is needed. This commit switches to use devm_ioremap_resource() instead, which automatically requests the resource (so the I/O registers region shows up properly in /proc/iomem), and also is devm-style, which allows to get rid of some error handling to unmap the I/O registers region.

Commit 5445eaf3 ('mvneta: Try to fix mvneta when compiled as module') fixed the mvneta driver to make it work properly when loaded as a module in SGMII configuration, which was tested successful by the author on the Armada XP OpenBlocks AX3, which uses SGMII. However, it turns out that the Armada XP GP, which uses RGMII, is affected by a similar problem: its SERDES configuration is lost when mvneta is loaded as a module, because this configuration is set by the bootloader, and then lost because the clock is gated by the clock framework until the mvneta driver is loaded again and the clock is re-enabled. However, it turns out that for the RGMII case, setting the SERDES configuration is not sufficient: the PCS enable bit in the MVNETA_GMAC_CTRL_2 register must also be set, like in the SGMII configuration. Therefore, this commit reworks the SGMII/RGMII initialization: the only difference between the two now is a different SERDES configuration, all the rest is identical. In detail, to achieve this, the commit: * Renames MVNETA_SGMII_SERDES_CFG to MVNETA_SERDES_CFG because it is not specific to SGMII, but also used on RGMII configurations. * Adds a MVNETA_RGMII_SERDES_PROTO definition, that must be used as the MVNETA_SERDES_CFG value in RGMII configurations. * Removes the mvneta_gmac_rgmii_set() and mvneta_port_sgmii_config() functions, and instead directly do the SGMII/RGMII configuration in mvneta_port_up(), from where those functions where called. It is worth mentioning that mvneta_gmac_rgmii_set() had an 'enable' parameter that was always passed as '1', so it was pretty useless. * Reworks the mvneta_port_up() function to set the MVNETA_SERDES_CFG register to the appropriate value depending on the RGMII vs. SGMII configuration. It also unconditionally set the PCS_ENABLE bit (was already done for SGMII, but is now also needed for RGMII), and sets the PORT_RGMII bit (which was already done for both SGMII and RGMII). This commit was successfully tested with mvneta compiled as a module, on both the OpenBlocks AX3 (SGMII configuration) and the Armada XP GP (RGMII configuration).

With the introduction of the support for Armada 375 and Armada 38x, the hidden Kconfig option MACH_ARMADA_370_XP is being renamed to MACH_MVEBU_V7. Therefore, the dependency that was used for the mvneta driver can no longer work. This commit replaces this dependency by a dependency on PLAT_ORION, which is used similarly for the mv643xx_eth driver. In addition to this, it takes this opportunity to adjust the description and help text to indicate that the driver can is also used for Armada 38x. Note that Armada 375 cannot use this driver as it has a completely different networking unit, which will require a separate driver.

calling dma_map_single()/dma_unmap_single() is quite expensive compared to copying a small packet. So let's copy short frames and keep the buffers mapped. We set the limit to 256 bytes which seems to give good results both on the XP-GP board and on the AX3/4. The Rx small packet rate increased by 16.4% doing this, from 486kpps to 573kpps. It is worth noting that even the call to the function dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu() is expensive (300 ns) although less than dma_unmap_single(). Without it, the packet rate raises to 711kpps (+24% more). Thus on systems where coherency from device to CPU is guaranteed by a snoop control unit, this patch should provide even more gains, and probably rx_copybreak could be increased.
