[ Upstream commit df8ed346d4a806a6eef2db5924285e839604b3f9 ]

Currently also the pause flags are removed from phydev-&gt;supported because
they're not included in PHY_DEFAULT_FEATURES. I don't think this is
intended, especially when considering that this function can be called
via phy_set_max_speed() anywhere in a driver. Change the masking to mask
out only the values we're going to change. In addition remove the
misleading comment, job of this small function is just to adjust the
supported and advertised speeds.

[ Upstream commit 4414b3ed74be0e205e04e12cd83542a727d88255 ]

Some ethernet drivers (like TI CPSW) may connect and manage &gt;1 Net PHYs per
one netdevice, as result such drivers will produce warning during system
boot and fail to connect second phy to netdevice when PHYLIB framework
will try to create sysfs link netdev-&gt;phydev for second PHY
in phy_attach_direct(), because sysfs link with the same name has been
created already for the first PHY. As result, second CPSW external
port will became unusable.

Fix it by relaxing error checking when PHYLIB framework is creating sysfs
link netdev-&gt;phydev in phy_attach_direct(), suppressing warning by using
sysfs_create_link_nowarn() and adding error message instead.
After this change links (phy-&gt;netdev and netdev-&gt;phy) creation failure is not
fatal any more and system can continue working, which fixes TI CPSW issue.

commit 9c2c2e62df3fa30fb13fbeb7512a4eede729383b upstream.

commit f5e64032a799 ("net: phy: fix resume handling") changes the
locking semantics for phy_resume() such that the caller now needs to
hold the phy mutex. Not all call sites were adopted to this new
semantic, resulting in warnings from the added
WARN_ON(!mutex_is_locked(&amp;phydev-&gt;lock)).  Rather than change the
semantics, add a __phy_resume() and restore the old behavior of
phy_resume().

[ Upstream commit f5e64032a799d4f54decc7eb6aafcdffb67f9ad9 ]

When a PHY has the BMCR_PDOWN bit set, it may decide to ignore writes
to other registers, or reset the registers to power-on defaults.
Micrel PHYs do this for their interrupt registers.

The current structure of phylib tries to enable interrupts before
resuming (and releasing) the BMCR_PDOWN bit.  This fails, causing
Micrel PHYs to stop working after a suspend/resume sequence if they
are using interrupts.

Fix this by ensuring that the PHY driver resume methods do not take
the phydev-&gt;lock mutex themselves, but the callers of phy_resume()
take that lock.  This then allows us to move the call to phy_resume()
before we enable interrupts in phy_start().

Given NR_IRQS is 2048 on sparc64, and even 32784 on alpha, 3 digits is
not enough to represent interrupt numbers on all architectures.  Hence
PHY interrupt numbers may be truncated during printing.

Increase the buffer size from 4 to 8 bytes to fix this.

This code is no longer used, the logging function was changed by commit
fbca164776e4 ("net: stmmac: Use the right logging function in stmmac_mdio_register").
It was previously showing information about the type of the IRQ, if it's
polled, ignored or a normal interrupt. As we don't want information loss,
I have moved this code to phy_attached_print().

<title>net: phy: Deal with unbound PHY driver in phy_attached_print()</title>

Priit reported that stmmac was crashing with the trace below. This is because
phy_attached_print() is called too early right after the PHY device has been
found, but before it has a driver attached, since that is only done in
phy_probe() which occurs later.

Fix this by dealing with a possibly NULL phydev-&gt;drv point since that can
happen here, but could also happen if we voluntarily did an unbind of the
PHY device with the PHY driver.

Priit reported that stmmac was crashing with the trace below. This is because
phy_attached_print() is called too early right after the PHY device has been
found, but before it has a driver attached, since that is only done in
phy_probe() which occurs later.

Fix this by dealing with a possibly NULL phydev-&gt;drv point since that can
happen here, but could also happen if we voluntarily did an unbind of the
PHY device with the PHY driver.

The link between the ethernet MAC and its PHY has become more complex
as the interface evolves.  This is especially true with serdes links,
where the part of the PHY is effectively integrated into the MAC.

Serdes links can be connected to a variety of devices, including SFF
modules soldered down onto the board with the MAC, a SFP cage with
a hotpluggable SFP module which may contain a PHY or directly modulate
the serdes signals onto optical media with or without a PHY, or even
a classical PHY connection.

Moreover, the negotiation information on serdes links comes in two
varieties - SGMII mode, where the PHY provides its speed/duplex/flow
control information to the MAC, and 1000base-X mode where both ends
exchange their abilities and each resolve the link capabilities.

This means we need a more flexible means to support these arrangements,
particularly with the hotpluggable nature of SFP, where the PHY can
be attached or detached after the network device has been brought up.

Ethtool information can come from multiple sources:
- we may have a PHY operating in either SGMII or 1000base-X mode, in
  which case we take ethtool/mii data directly from the PHY.
- we may have a optical SFP module without a PHY, with the MAC
  operating in 1000base-X mode - the ethtool/mii data needs to come
  from the MAC.
- we may have a copper SFP module with a PHY whic can't be accessed,
  which means we need to take ethtool/mii data from the MAC.

Phylink aims to solve this by providing an intermediary between the
MAC and PHY, providing a safe way for PHYs to be hotplugged, and
allowing a SFP driver to reconfigure the serdes connection.

Phylink also takes over support of fixed link connections, where the
speed/duplex/flow control are fixed, but link status may be controlled
by a GPIO signal.  By avoiding the fixed-phy implementation, phylink
can provide a faster response to link events: fixed-phy has to wait for
phylib to operate its state machine, which can take several seconds.
In comparison, phylink takes milliseconds.

- remove sync status
- rework supported and advertisment handling
- add 1000base-x speed for fixed links
- use functionality exported from phy-core, reworking

Sometimes, we need to do additional work between the PHY coming up and
marking the carrier present - for example, we may need to wait for the
PHY to MAC link to finish negotiation.  This changes phylib to provide
a notification function pointer which avoids the built-in
netif_carrier_on() and netif_carrier_off() functions.

Standard -&gt;adjust_link functionality is provided by hooking a helper
into the new -&gt;phy_link_change method.
