[BUG] MTK SoC Ethernet throughput TX only ~620Mbit/s since 6.2-rc1

[BUG] MTK SoC Ethernet throughput TX only ~620Mbit/s since 6.2-rc1

[Frank Wunderlich]

Hi,

i've noticed that beginning on 6.2-rc1 the throughput on my Bananapi-R2 and Bananapi-R3 goes from 940Mbit/s down do 620Mbit/s since 6.2-rc1.
Only TX (from SBC PoV) is affected, RX is still 940Mbit/s.

i bisected this to this commit:

f63959c7eec3151c30a2ee0d351827b62e742dcb ("net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: implement multi-queue support for per-port queues")

Daniel reported me that this is known so far and they need assistance from MTK and i should report it officially.

As far as i understand it the commit should fix problems with clients using non-GBE speeds (10/100 Mbit/s) on the Gbit-capable dsa
interfaces (mt753x connected) behind the mac, but now the Gigabit speed is no more reached.
I see no CRC/dropped packets, retransmitts or similar.

after reverting the commit above i get 940Mbit like in rx direction, but this will introduce the problems mentioned above so this not a complete fix.

I don't have a BPI-R2, but I tested on BPI-R3 and can't reproduce this 
issue. Do you see it on all ports, or only on specific ones?

I also can't reproduce this if unsing any of the gigE ports wired via
MT7531 on the R3. However, I can reproduce the issue if using a 1 GBit/s
SFP module in slot SFP1 of the R3 (connected directly to GMAC2/eth1).

Users have reported this also to be a problem also on MT7622 on devices
directly connecting a PHY (and not using MT7531).

In all cases, reverting the commit above fixes the issue.


Cheers


Daniel

made quick test with 6.3-rc1 on r3 without reverting the patch above and can confirm daniels test

it seems the problem is no more on switch-ports, but on eth1 i have massive packet loss...seems this caused by the same patch because i tested with reverted version and have no issue there.

on BPI-R2 the eth0/gmac0 (tested with wan-port) is affected. here i have in TX-Direction only 620Mbit.

I have no idea yet why there the gmac0 is affected and on r3 only gmac1.

But it looks differently...on r3 the gmac1 is nearly completely broken.

Please try this patch and let me know if it resolves the regression:

If it looks "completely broken" as in you see only kilobits or even
complete starvation of RX, then you probably miss this fix:

I was about to suggest exactly this fix, and yes, it resolves the issue
and now I see full 1 Gbit/s speed on both, switch ports (even while 100M
connection is also used) and eth1 (via 1000Base-T SFP module).

Thank you for taking care of this!
