Re: [PATCH net-next] net: stmmac: Fix reception of Broadcom switches tags
From: Giuseppe CAVALLARO
Date: Wed Jan 17 2018 - 02:08:15 EST
Hi Florian
for gmac4.x and gmac3.x series the ACS bit is the Automatic Pad or CRC
Stripping, so the
core strips the Pad or FCS on frames if the value of the length field is
< 1536 bytes.
For MAC10-100 there is the Bit 8 (ASTP) of the reg0 that does the same
if len is < 46bytes.
In your patch I can just suggest to add a new field to strip the PAD/FCS
w/o passing the whole
netdev struct to the core_init. In the main driver, we could manage the
pad-strip feature (also
by using dt) or disable it in case of netdev_uses_dsa; then propagating
this setting to the core_init
or calling a new callback. What do you think?
Regards
Peppe

Broadcom tags inserted by Broadcom switches put a 4 byte header after
the MAC SA and before the EtherType, which may look like some sort of 0
length LLC/SNAP packet (tcpdump and wireshark do think that way). With
ACS enabled in stmmac the packets were truncated to 8 bytes on
reception, whereas clearing this bit allowed normal reception to occur.
In order to make that possible, we need to pass a net_device argument to
the different core_init() functions and we are dependent on the Broadcom
tagger padding packets correctly (which it now does). To be as little
invasive as possible, this is only done for gmac1000 when the network
device is DSA-enabled (netdev_uses_dsa() returns true).
