mdio: mux: fix parsing mux registers outside of the PHY address range

2017-07-14T15:12:45+00:00

mdio_mux_init parses the child nodes of the MDIO mux. When using
"mdio-mux-mmioreg" the child nodes are describing the register value
that is written to switch between the MDIO busses.

The change which makes the error messages more verbose changed the
parsing of the "reg" property from a simple of_property_read_u32 call
to of_mdio_parse_addr. On a Khadas VIM (based on the Meson GXL SoC,
which uses mdio-mux-mmioreg) this prevents registering the MDIO mux
(because the "reg" values on the MDIO mux child nodes are 0x2009087f
and 0xe40908ff) and leads to the following errors:
  mdio-mux-mmioreg c883455c.eth-phy-mux: /soc/periphs@c8834000/eth-phy-mux/mdio@e40908ff PHY address -469169921 is too large
  mdio-mux-mmioreg c883455c.eth-phy-mux: Error: Failed to find reg for child /soc/periphs@c8834000/eth-phy-mux/mdio@e40908ff
  mdio-mux-mmioreg c883455c.eth-phy-mux: /soc/periphs@c8834000/eth-phy-mux/mdio@2009087f PHY address 537462911 is too large
  mdio-mux-mmioreg c883455c.eth-phy-mux: Error: Failed to find reg for child /soc/periphs@c8834000/eth-phy-mux/mdio@2009087f
  mdio-mux-mmioreg c883455c.eth-phy-mux: Error: No acceptable child buses found
  mdio-mux-mmioreg c883455c.eth-phy-mux: failed to register mdio-mux bus /soc/periphs@c8834000/eth-phy-mux
(as a result of that ethernet is not working, because the PHY which is
connected through the mux' child MDIO bus, which is not being
registered).

Fix this by reverting the change from of_mdio_parse_addr to
of_mdio_parse_addr.

net: phy: dp83867: add workaround for incorrect RX_CTRL pin strap

2017-07-05T08:23:53+00:00

The data manual for DP83867IR/CR, SNLS484E[1], revised march 2017,
advises that strapping RX_DV/RX_CTRL pin in mode 1 and 2 is not
supported (see note below Table 5 (4-Level Strap Pins)).

There are some boards which have the pin strapped this way and need
software workaround suggested by the data manual. Bit[7] of
Configuration Register 4 (address 0x0031) must be cleared to 0. This
ensures proper operation of the PHY.

Implement driver support for device-tree property meant to advertise
the wrong strapping.

net: dp83640: Avoid NULL pointer dereference.

2017-06-23T18:38:16+00:00

The function, skb_complete_tx_timestamp(), used to allow passing in a
NULL pointer for the time stamps, but that was changed in commit
62bccb8cdb69051b95a55ab0c489e3cab261c8ef ("net-timestamp: Make the
clone operation stand-alone from phy timestamping"), and the existing
call sites, all of which are in the dp83640 driver, were fixed up.

Even though the kernel-doc was subsequently updated in commit
7a76a021cd5a292be875fbc616daf03eab1e6996 ("net-timestamp: Update
skb_complete_tx_timestamp comment"), still a bug fix from Manfred
Rudigier came into the driver using the old semantics.  Probably
Manfred derived that patch from an older kernel version.

This fix should be applied to the stable trees as well.

net/phy: micrel: configure intterupts after autoneg workaround

2017-06-22T15:05:16+00:00

The commit ("net/phy: micrel: Add workaround for bad autoneg") fixes an
autoneg failure case by resetting the hardware. This turns off
intterupts. Things will work themselves out if the phy polls, as it will
figure out it's state during a poll. However if the phy uses only
intterupts, the phy will stall, since interrupts are off. This patch
fixes the issue by calling config_intr after resetting the phy.
