[PATCH net-next 3/7] net: mscc: ocelot: optimize ocelot_mm_irq()

From: Vladimir Oltean
Date: Sat Apr 15 2023 - 13:06:34 EST


The MAC Merge IRQ of all ports is shared with the PTP TX timestamp IRQ
of all ports, which means that currently, when a PTP TX timestamp is
generated, felix_irq_handler() also polls for the MAC Merge layer status
of all ports, looking for changes. This makes the kernel do more work,
and under certain circumstances may make ptp4l require a
tx_timestamp_timeout argument higher than before.

Changes to the MAC Merge layer status are only to be expected under
certain conditions - its TX direction needs to be enabled - so we can
check early if that is the case, and omit register access otherwise.

Make ocelot_mm_update_port_status() skip register access if
mm->tx_enabled is unset, and also call it once more, outside IRQ
context, from ocelot_port_set_mm(), when mm->tx_enabled transitions from
true to false, because an IRQ is also expected in that case.

Also, a port may have its MAC Merge layer enabled but it may not have
generated the interrupt. In that case, there's no point in writing to
DEV_MM_STATUS to acknowledge that IRQ. We can reduce the number of
register writes per port with MM enabled by keeping an "ack" variable
which writes the "write-one-to-clear" bits. Those are 3 in number:
PRMPT_ACTIVE_STICKY, UNEXP_RX_PFRM_STICKY and UNEXP_TX_PFRM_STICKY.
The other fields in DEV_MM_STATUS are read-only and it doesn't matter
what is written to them, so writing zero is just fine.
