Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/4] net: lan966x: Add support for FDMA
Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2022 21:47:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220318204750.1864134-1-horatiu.vultur@microchip.com> (raw)

Currently when injecting or extracting a frame from CPU, the frame
is given to the HW each word at a time. There is another way to
inject/extract frames from CPU using FDMA(Frame Direct Memory Access).
In this way the entire frame is given to the HW. This improves both
RX and TX bitrate.

v1->v2:
- fix typo in commit message in last patch
- remove first patch as the changes are already there
- make sure that there is space in skb to put the FCS
- move skb_tx_timestamp closer to the handover of the frame to the HW

Horatiu Vultur (4):
  net: lan966x: Add registers that are used for FDMA.
  net: lan966x: Expose functions that are needed by FDMA
  net: lan966x: Add FDMA functionality
  net: lan966x: Update FDMA to change MTU.
