[PATCH net-next v6 0/7] Enable SGMII and 2500BASEX interface mode switching for Intel platforms

From: Choong Yong Liang
Date: Tue Feb 04 2025 - 01:11:21 EST


During the interface mode change, the 'phylink_major_config' function will
be triggered in phylink. The modification of the following functions will
support the switching between SGMII and 2500BASE-X interface modes for
the Intel platform:

- xpcs_switch_interface_mode: Re-initiates clause 37 auto-negotiation for
the SGMII interface mode to perform auto-negotiation.
- mac_finish: Configures the SerDes according to the interface mode.

With the above changes, the code will work as follows during the interface
mode change. The PCS will reconfigure according to the pcs_neg_mode and the
selected interface mode. Then, the MAC driver will perform SerDes
configuration in 'mac_finish' based on the selected interface mode. During
the SerDes configuration, the selected interface mode will identify TSN
lane registers from FIA and then send IPC commands to the Power Management
Controller (PMC) through the PMC driver/API. The PMC will act as a proxy to
program the PLL registers.

Change log:
v1 -> v2:
- Add static to pmc_lpm_modes declaration
- Add cur_link_an_mode to the kernel doc
- Combine 2 commits i.e. "stmmac: intel: Separate driver_data of ADL-N
from TGL" and "net: stmmac: Add 1G/2.5G auto-negotiation
support for ADL-N" into 1 commit.

v2 -> v3:
- Create `pmc_ipc.c` file for `intel_pmc_ipc()` function and
allocate the file in `arch/x86/platform/intel/` directory.
- Update phylink's AN mode during phy interface change and
not exposing phylink's AN mode into phylib.

v3 -> v4:
- Introduce `allow_switch_interface` flag to have all ethtool
link modes that are supported and advertised will be published.
- Introduce `mac_get_pcs_neg_mode` function that selects the PCS
negotiation mode according to the interface mode.
- Remove pcs-xpcs.c changes and handle pcs during `mac_select_pcs`
function
- Configure SerDes base on the interface on `mac_finish` function.

v4 -> v5:
- remove 'allow_switch_interface' related patches.
- remove 'mac_select_pcs' related patches.
- add a soft reset according to XPCS datasheet for re-initiate Clause 37
auto-negotiation when switching to SGMII interface mode.

v5 -> v6:
- Remove 'mac_get_pcs_neg_mode' related patches.
The pcs_neg_mode is properly handled by the
'net: add negotiation of in-band capabilities' patch series:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/Z08kCwxdkU4n2V6x@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
- Using act_link_an_mode to determine PHY, as cfg_link_an_mode was not
updated for the 2500BASE-X interface mode, caused a failure to link up.
- Clean up and standardize the interface mode switch for xpcs.
