[PATCH 00/25] net: stmmac: Fix clocks/reset-related procedures

[Serge Semin]

Baikal-T1 SoC is equipped with two Synopsys DesignWare GMAC v3.73a-based
ethernet interfaces with no internal Ethernet PHY attached. The IP-cores
are configured as GMAC-AXI with CSR interface clocked by a dedicated
signal. Each of which has got Rx/Tx FIFOs of 16KB, up to 8 MAC addresses
capability, no embedded filter hash table logic, EEE enabled, IEEE 1588
and 1588-2008 Advanced timestamping capabilities, power management with
remote wake-up, IP CSUM hardware acceleration, a single PHY interface -
RGMII with MDIO bus, 1xGPI and 1xGPO.

This is a very first series of patches with fixes we've found to be
required in order to make things working well for our setup. The series
has turned to be rather large, but most of the patches are trivial and
some of them are just cleanups, so it shouldn't be that hard to review.

The series starts with fixes of the PBL (Programmable DMA Burst length)
DT-property, which is supposed to be defined for each DW *MAC IP-core, but
not only for a Allwinner sun* GMAC and DW xGMAC. The number of possible
PBL values need to be also extended in accordance with the DW *MAC manual.
Then the TSO flag property should be also declared free of the
vendor-specific conditional schema, because the driver expects the
compatible string to have the IP-core version specified anyway and none of
the glue-drivers refer to the property directly.

Then we suggest to refactor the "snps,{axi,mtl-rx,mtl-tx}-config"
properties/nodes declaration, so the configs would be able to be defined
as the sub-nodes of the DW *MAC DT nodes. The reason is that the DW MAC
DT-schema doesn't validate them at the moment and having them defined as
separate from the DW MAC nodes isn't descriptive at all. (Please note the
patch log, since the DT-schema tool needs to be fixed in order to make the
change working).

Another big modification of the DW *MAC bindings file is the generic
DT-properties and generic DT-nodes schema splitting up. So in order to
improve the DW *MAC bindings maintainability we suggest to leave the
generic DW *MAC properties definition in the "snps,dwmac.yaml" file and
move the bindings for the generic DW *MAC DT-nodes validation in the
dedicated DT-schema "snps,dwmac-generic.yaml".

Another concern has been related with the System/CSR clocks. We have
discovered that currently the "stmmaceth" clocks are considered by the
driver as the combined system+CSR clocks, while in fact CSR interface can
be equipped with a dedicated clock source (this is our case). If so then
the clock with "pclk" can be used to define the later one. But neither
bindings are descriptive enough nor the DW *MAC driver is fixed to support
that feature. So first we suggest to elaborate stmmaceth/pclk description
in the bindings file and then fix the MDIO-bus clock selection procedure
so pclk would be used there if specified. The DW QoS Eth MAC driver is
also fixed in accordance with that modification.

The biggest part of the series concerns adding the generic Tx/Rx clocks
support to the DT-schema and to the DW MAC drivers and with fixed related
to that. It is really a good decision to add the generic Tx/Rx clocks,
because a lot of the glue-drivers expect them to be specified in the
DT-node. So first we add the "tx"/"rx" clocks declaration in the generic
DW MAC DT-schema. Then the glue-drivers like
dwmac-rk/dwmac-sti/dwmac-stm32 remove() callbacks need to be fixed to call
stmmac_remove_config_dt() otherwise the resources allocated in the
stmmac_probe_config_dt() won't be freed on the device removal. A small
modification needs to be provided for the cleanup-on-failure path of the
stmmac_probe_config_dt() method in order to improve its maintainability.
Then we've discovered that the "stmmaceth" and "pclk" clocks while being
acquired and enabled in the stmmac_probe_config_dt() method are disabled
in the stmmac_dvr_remove() function, which is erroneous for every
cleanup-on-failure path of the glue-driver probe methods. Finally before
adding the Tx/Rx clocks support we provide a set of optimizations of the
"stmmaceth"/"pclk"/"ptp_clk" clocks and the "stmmaceth" reset procedures
by removing the manual optional resources acquisition/enable/disable
implementation with the one provided by the corresponding subsystems.
Since the generic Tx/Rx clocks have been added we can freely remove the
similar clocks handling from the glue-drivers.

(Please note I have also discovered, but didn't try to fix the Allwinner
Sun8i cleanup-on-failure path implemented in the DW MAC probe() procedure.
It has been broken since don't know what time and it's a bit too
complicated to be fixed with no hardware at hands.)

That's it for now. The next series will concern the GPIOs support and
Baikal-T1 SoC specific bindings.
