Subject: [PATCH net-next v7 04/12] net: pcs: implement Firmware node support for PCS driver
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2026 14:29:40 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260615122950.22281-5-ansuelsmth@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260615122950.22281-1-ansuelsmth@gmail.com>
Implement the foundation of Firmware node support for PCS driver.
To support this, implement a simple Provider API where a PCS driver can
expose multiple PCS with an xlate .get function.
PCS driver will have to call fwnode_pcs_add_provider() and pass the
firmware node pointer and a xlate function to return the correct PCS for
the passed #pcs-cells.
This will register the PCS in a global list of providers so that
consumer can access it.
The consumer will then use fwnode_pcs_get() to get the actual PCS by
passing the firmware node pointer and the index for #pcs-cells.
For a simple implementation where #pcs-cells is 0 and the PCS driver
expose a single PCS, the xlate function fwnode_pcs_simple_get() is
provided.
For an advanced implementation a custom xlate function is required.
On removal the PCS driver should first delete itself from the provider
list using fwnode_pcs_del_provider() and then call phylink_release_pcs()
on every PCS the driver provides.
Generic functions fwnode_phylink_pcs_count() and fwnode_phylink_pcs_parse()
are provided for MAC driver that will declare PCS in DT (or ACPI).
Function fwnode_phylink_pcs_count() will parse "pcs-handle" property and
will return the number of PCS entries described in the passed firmware
node.
Function fwnode_phylink_pcs_parse() will parse "pcs-handle" property and
fill the passed available_pcs array with the available PCS found up to passed
num_pcs value. It's worth to mention that this function will ignore PCS
that still needs to be probed (returning -ENODEV) and such PCS won't be
added to the available_pcs array.
