The operating mode of the driver is currently to populate its struct mdio_xpcs_args::supported and struct mdio_xpcs_args::an_mode statically in xpcs_probe(), based on the passed phy_interface_t, and work with those. However this is not the operation that phylink expects from a PCS driver, because the port might be attached to an SFP cage that triggers changes of the phy_interface_t dynamically as one SFP module is unpluggged and another is plugged. To migrate towards that model, the struct mdio_xpcs_args should not cache anything related to the phy_interface_t, but just look up the statically defined, const struct xpcs_compat structure corresponding to the detected PCS OUI/model number. So we delete the "supported" and "an_mode" members of struct mdio_xpcs_args, and add the "id" structure there (since the ID is not expected to change at runtime). Since xpcs->supported is used deep in the code in _xpcs_config_aneg_c73(), we need to modify some function headers to pass the xpcs_compat from all callers. In turn, the xpcs_compat is always supplied externally to the xpcs module: - Most of the time by phylink - In xpcs_probe() it is needed because xpcs_soft_reset() writes to MDIO_MMD_PCS or to MDIO_MMD_VEND2 depending on whether an_mode is clause 37 or clause 73. In order to not introduce functional changes related to when the soft reset is issued, we continue to require the initial phy_interface_t argument to be passed to xpcs_probe() so we can pass this on to xpcs_soft_reset(). - stmmac_open() wants to know whether to call stmmac_init_phy() or not, and for that it looks inside xpcs->an_mode, because the clause 73 (backplane) AN modes supposedly do not have a PHY. Because we moved an_mode outside of struct mdio_xpcs_args, this is now no longer directly possible, so we introduce a helper function xpcs_get_an_mode() which protects the data encapsulation of the xpcs module and requires a phy_interface_t to be passed as argument. This function can look up the appropriate compat based on the phy_interface_t. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
