[PATCH net-next 0/2] net: phy: add Rust reference driver for ET1011C

[PATCH net-next 0/2] net: phy: add Rust reference driver for ET1011C

[Artem Lytkin]

This series adds a Rust reference driver for the LSI ET1011C PHY,
following the pattern established by the existing Rust Asix PHY driver
(ax88796b_rust.rs).

Patch 1 exposes genphy_config_aneg() in the Rust PHY abstraction,
which is needed by PHY drivers that perform custom BMCR configuration
before calling the generic auto-negotiation setup.

Patch 2 adds the Rust ET1011C driver itself, implementing config_aneg
and read_status callbacks. It is a feature-equivalent port of the C
driver at drivers/net/phy/et1011c.c.

[PATCH net-next 1/2] rust: net: phy: expose genphy_config_aneg()

[Artem Lytkin]

Add genphy_config_aneg() method to phy::Device, wrapping the C
function __genphy_config_aneg(). This is needed by PHY drivers that
perform custom BMCR configuration before calling the generic
auto-negotiation setup.

The wrapper calls __genphy_config_aneg(phydev, false) directly since
genphy_config_aneg() is a static inline function not visible to
bindgen.

[PATCH v2 1/3] staging: most: dim2: replace IS_ERR_OR_NULL with IS_ERR for devm_clk_get

[Artem Lytkin]

devm_clk_get() never returns NULL, so IS_ERR_OR_NULL() checks are
unnecessary. Replace them with IS_ERR() for both the "mlb" and
"pll8_mlb" clock lookups in fsl_mx6_enable().

Looks like you have some other patches mixed in here.

[PATCH net-next 2/2] net: phy: add Rust reference driver for ET1011C

[Artem Lytkin]

Add a Rust implementation of the LSI ET1011C PHY driver, equivalent
to the existing C driver in drivers/net/phy/et1011c.c. The driver
implements config_aneg and read_status callbacks using the Rust PHY
abstraction.

The Rust driver can be selected via the ET1011C_RUST_PHY Kconfig
option, following the same pattern as AX88796B_RUST_PHY.

This is not the same as the C code. read_status() will be called once
per second. The C code only does the read/modify/write when the speed
reported by genphy_read_status() is different to the previous
value. This code appears to do it every second.

[PATCH v2 2/3] staging: most: dim2: use dev_err_probe and proper error codes for clock

[Artem Lytkin]

Replace hardcoded -EFAULT returns with dev_err_probe() and PTR_ERR()
when devm_clk_get() fails in fsl_mx6_enable(). This ensures the
correct error code is propagated (e.g. -EPROBE_DEFER for deferred
probing) and avoids log noise during probe deferral.

Changes since v1:

  - read_status now only reconfigures registers when speed changes,
    matching the C driver behavior (Andrew Lunn)
  - Removed unrelated dim2 staging patches from the series

Add a Rust implementation of the LSI ET1011C PHY driver, equivalent
to the existing C driver in drivers/net/phy/et1011c.c. The driver
implements config_aneg and read_status callbacks using the Rust PHY
abstraction.

The Rust driver uses the new speed() getter to detect speed changes,
only reconfiguring the TX FIFO depth and GMII interface when the
negotiated speed actually changes. This matches the C driver behavior.

The Rust driver can be selected via the ET1011C_RUST_PHY Kconfig
option, following the same pattern as AX88796B_RUST_PHY.

What board are you testing this on? This is a pretty old PHY, and
nobody has done anything with it for a long time.

ax88796b_rust.rs also has:

const BMCR_SPEED100: u16 = uapi::BMCR_SPEED100 as u16;
const BMCR_FULLDPLX: u16 = uapi::BMCR_FULLDPLX as u16;

Can these be shared somehow?

It is pretty unusual to clear these bits in BMCR. BMCR_FULLDPLX,
BMCR_SPEED100, BMCR_SPEED1000 are only used when autoneg is
disabled. genphy_setup_forced() will set them, if
needed. BMCR_ANENABLE will be set when auto-neg is restarted.

Is there any hint in the datasheet why this is needed?


> +        dev.write(C22::BMCR, ctl | BMCR_RESET)?;

BMCR_RESET is a self clearly bit, and you should wait for it to
clear. genphy_soft_reset() does the polling. But before you can swap
to this, you need to understand why the other bits are being cleared.

Given how old this C driver is, i'm not sure it is using best
practices. So you really should be looking at every line, is it
correct in todays phylib framework? Should it be done differently in a
modern driver? We don't want a 1:1 copy in rust, we want something
which is up to date.

It is great to see more Rust code, and I am glad the "Rust reference
driver" model is useful here. But reference drivers, in principle, are
meant to bootstrap the abstractions and so on. The cover letter says
"following the pattern established", but the idea is not to duplicate
every C driver.

Since there is already a PHY one, is this meant to bootstrap the two
new APIs? Or something else?

Of course, it is up to the maintainers, i.e. if they want/need to have
more reference drivers, that is great. But I think it would be good to
clarify.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel

[PATCH net-next v3 0/2] net: phy: add Rust reference driver for ET1011C

[Artem Lytkin]

This series adds a Rust reference driver for the LSI ET1011C PHY,
following the pattern established by the existing Rust Asix PHY driver
(ax88796b_rust.rs).

Patch 1 adds a speed() getter to phy::Device, needed to detect speed
changes in read_status.

Patch 2 adds the Rust ET1011C driver itself, implementing soft_reset
and read_status callbacks.

Changes since v2:
  - Replaced custom config_aneg with soft_reset callback using
    genphy_soft_reset(), which properly polls the self-clearing
    BMCR_RESET bit and handles autoneg/forced mode (Andrew Lunn)
  - Removed all BMCR constant definitions (no longer needed)
  - Dropped genphy_config_aneg() abstraction patch (no longer used)

Changes since v1:
  - Added speed() getter to properly detect speed changes (Andrew Lunn)
  - read_status now only reconfigures registers when speed changes,
    matching the C driver behavior (Andrew Lunn)

[Artem Lytkin]

Add a speed() getter to phy::Device that reads the current link speed
from the phy_device struct. This is needed by PHY drivers that must
detect speed changes in their read_status callback.

[PATCH net-next v3 2/2] net: phy: add Rust reference driver for ET1011C

[Artem Lytkin]

Add a Rust reference driver for the LSI ET1011C PHY, following the
pattern established by the existing Rust Asix PHY driver
(ax88796b_rust.rs).

Unlike the C driver which uses a custom config_aneg that manually
clears BMCR bits and writes BMCR_RESET without polling, this driver
uses the soft_reset callback with genphy_soft_reset(). This properly
polls the self-clearing BMCR_RESET bit and handles both autoneg and
forced mode, following current best practices.

The read_status callback detects speed changes and reconfigures the
GMII interface and TX FIFO when switching to gigabit, matching the C
driver's functionality.

Thank you for the feedback, Miguel. You raise a fair point.

  Honestly, the new abstraction here (speed() getter) is quite minor --
  it just reads a struct field. The driver itself doesn't bootstrap
  anything significant beyond what ax88796b_rust already covers.

  I'm looking to contribute to Rust in the kernel and started with PHY
  drivers because the abstraction is well established. But I understand
  now that duplicating C drivers isn't the goal.

  Could you point me toward areas where Rust work would be most
  valuable? I'm happy to work on new abstractions or drivers that
  actually need bootstrapping, rather than adding another reference
  driver to an area that's already covered.

  Thanks,
  Artem

To clarify, if the netdev maintainers want to have more reference
drivers, it is up to them, i.e. please do not feel discouraged by what
I said. :) I just thought I should mention it in case there was some
confusion.

Regarding new drivers, if you want to work around networking, then
probably the maintainers can tell you what is needed. In general, I
would suggest looking for hardware that is unsupported currently --
that is usually way easier to justify and land, and there is no
concern about duplication (and possibly arch support is not a worry
too, since there is no other driver anyway).

Regarding new abstractions or other kinds of work, you may want to
look into existing driver's lists like:

  - https://docs.kernel.org/next/gpu/nova/core/todo.html
  - https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/panfrost/linux/-/issues/?label_name%5B%5D=tyr

We have also threads in Zulip about looking for things to work on --
in case you haven't seen them, you may want to take a look at e.g.

  https://rust-for-linux.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/291565-Help/topic/Looking.20for.20open.20issue

Finally, you probably know this, but you can always help not just by
writing code, but by reviewing patches and testing them -- that is
very needed, gets you credit in the Git log, and by doing so you will
likely realize what other things you could work on around the same
areas you start to review.

I hope that helps!

Cheers,
Miguel

 Thank you, Miguel! I appreciate the encouragement and the pointers.

  I'll look into the Nova and Panfrost/Tyr task lists, and check the
  Zulip threads for open work. The suggestion about unsupported hardware
  is a good one -- I'll look for something that could use a new Rust
  driver.

  I'll also start reviewing patches in the areas I'm interested in.
  That seems like a good way to learn and contribute at the same time.

  Thanks again for taking the time to reply.

Please don't post a new version within 24 hours.

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html

Also, each version should be in a thread of its own.

Yes, the code is the easy bit, getting the processes correct is
hard. But given the volume of patches, you need to follow the
processes otherwise it does not scale.

There are also some unanswered questions from the last version. Please
don't post a new version until the discussion has come to a
conclusion.
