[PATCH net-next v3] net: stmmac: Use interrupt mode INTM=1 for per channel irq
From: muhammad . nazim . amirul . nazle . asmade
Date: Thu May 07 2026 - 03:01:49 EST
From: Nazim Amirul <muhammad.nazim.amirul.nazle.asmade@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 6ccf12ae111e ("net: stmmac: use interrupt mode INTM=1 for
multi-MSI") introduced INTM=1 interrupt mode for platforms using MSI.
Apply a similar approach to enable per-channel interrupts using shared
peripheral interrupt (SPI), so that only per-channel TX and RX
interrupts (TI/RI) are handled by the TX/RX ISR without invoking the
common interrupt ISR.

Changes in v3:
- Rebased and reposted on the net-next tree.
Changes in v2:
- Rename macros to use XGMAC_ prefix to match dwxgmac2.h convention.
- Drop DMA_MODE_INTM_SHIFT and use FIELD_PREP() instead.
- Wire up multi_irq_en via STMMAC_FLAG_MULTI_IRQ_EN in stmmac_main.c
so the feature is reachable by platform drivers.
- Drop unused plat_stmmacenet_data fields (ext_snapshot_num,
int_snapshot_en, ext_snapshot_en, multi_msi_en, multi_irq_en)
which duplicate existing flags bits.
- Remove misleading commit message paragraph about ISR decoupling
(dwxgmac2_dma_interrupt() already handles TI/RI independently of NIS).
