[PATCH 1/3] phy: marvell: phy-mvebu-cp110-comphy: Rename HS-SGMMI to 2500Base-X

[Pali Rohár]

Comphy phy mode 0x3 is incorrectly named. It is not SGMII but rather
2500Base-X mode which runs at 3.125 Gbps speed.

Rename macro names and comments to 2500Base-X.

Comphy phy mode 0x3 is incorrectly named. It is not SGMII but rather
2500Base-X mode which runs at 3.125 Gbps speed.

BTW I was thinking about merging some parts of these 2 drivers into
common code. Not entirely sure if I should follow, though.

cp110-comphy and a3700-comphy are just RPC drivers which calls SMC and
relay on firmware support which implements real work. And both uses same
RPC / SMC API. So merging drivers into one is possible.

But I do not think that it is a good idea that Linux kernel depends on
some external firmware which implements RPC API for configuring HW.

Rather kernel should implements its native drivers without dependency on
external firmware.

We know from history that kernel tried to avoid using x86 BIOS/firmware
due to bugs and all functionality (re)-implemented itself without using
firmware RPC functionality.

Kernel has already "hacks" in other drivers which are using these comphy
drivers, just because older versions of firmware do not support all
necessary functionality and upgrading this firmware is not easy step
(and sometimes even not possible; e.g. when is cryptographically
signed).

Not really an argument in this case. We're not talking about closed
source firmware.

The kernel used to (and probably still does) contain code to configure
the comphys. Having worked on trying to get the 10G lanes stable on
Macchiatobin, I much prefer the existing solution where it's in the
ATF firmware. I've rebuilt the firmware several times during the course
of that.

The advantage is that fixing the setup of the COMPHY is done in one
place, and it fixes it not only for the kernel, but also for u-boot
and UEFI too. So rather than having to maintain three different
places for a particular board, we can maintain the parameters in one
place - in the ATF firmware.

The problem with the past has been that stuff gets accepted into the
kernel without the "full system" view and without regard for "should
this actually be done in the firmware". Then, when it's decided that
it really should be done in the firmware, we end up needing to keep
the old stuff in the kernel for compatibility with older firmware,
which incidentally may not be up to date.

If we were to drop the comphy setup from firmware, then we will need
a lot of additional properties in the kernel's DT and u-boot DT for
the comphy to configure it appropriately. And ACPI. I don't think
that scales very well, and is a recipe for things getting out of
step.

Kernel does not have code for A3700. Hence reason why there are hacks in
other drivers, like libata/ahci or usb/xhci.

In some cases rebuilt of firmware does not have to be possible (e.g.
when it it signed).

U-Boot for A3720 has its own implementation and does not use firmware
implementation (yet). So currently the only consumer of firmware
implementation is just Linux kernel.

Same argument can be used for any other driver which is implemented in
both bootloader and kernel... But I understand also your argument.

I think that whatever is used (firmware code, kernel code, ...), DT
should always contains full HW description with all nodes, and not only
some "subset". DT should be independent of current driver / firmware
implementation.

A "full" description of the hardware settings for the comphy on Armada
8040 would be very big if we included every single setting. There are
about a thousand settings - and that is likely an under-estimate. I
know, I've a shell script that decodes around a thousand settings from
the registers for a _single_ lane, and that's incomplete.

With many of the settings not very well documented in the manual, we
would struggle to describe it sufficiently well to get it past the DT
maintainers.

So, "full hardware description" is impractical. Sorry.
