[net,v2,0/2] Fix 'ethtool --show-eee' during initial stage

Message

Choong Yong Liang Nov. 15, 2024, 11:11 a.m. UTC
From: Choong Yong Liang <yong.liang.choong@intel.com>

When the MAC boots up with a Marvell PHY and phy_support_eee() is implemented,
the 'ethtool --show-eee' command shows that EEE is enabled, but in actuality,
the driver side is disabled. If we try to enable EEE through
'ethtool --set-eee' for a Marvell PHY, nothing happens because the eee_cfg
matches the setting required to enable EEE in ethnl_set_eee().

This patch series will remove phydev->eee_enabled and replace it with
eee_cfg.eee_enabled. When performing genphy_c45_an_config_eee_aneg(), it
will follow the master configuration to have software and hardware in sync,
allowing 'ethtool --show-eee' to display the correct value during the
initial stage.

v2 changes:
 - Implement the prototype suggested by Russell
 - Check EEE before calling phy_support_eee()

Thanks to Russell for the proposed prototype in [1].

Russell submitted the proposed patch already:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/E1tBXAF-00341F-EQ@rmk-PC.armlinux.org.uk/
So there's no need for your patch 1.

Patch 1 is an updated version of that patch, minus my authorship and of
course no sign-off. I've already marked this series as requiring changes
in patchwork (hopefully, if I did it correctly.)

The updated version adds an argument to genphy_c45_an_config_eee_aneg(),
and I wonder whether we can do better, as this results in several calls
with the same argument. The following is an alternative, to be applied
on top of your original patch. I don't have a clear preference, though.

Hmm, don't we want to do this under phydev->lock, because network
drivers and phylib may be reading from phydev->eee_cfg? If we
update it outside the lock, and then revert, there's a chance that
the phylib state machine / network driver may see the changes
which then get reverted on failure, potentially leading to
inconsistent state.

Good point, then the patch would look like this.
BTW: Saw that Jakub applied your patch already.
