Subject: [PATCH net-next v8 0/5] net: stmmac: Add PCI driver support for BCM8958x
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 14:19:15 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260320211921.1202058-1-jitendra.vegiraju@broadcom.com> (raw)
From: Jitendra Vegiraju <jitendra.vegiraju@broadcom.com>
This patchset adds basic PCI ethernet device driver support for Broadcom
BCM8958x Automotive Ethernet switch SoC devices.
This SoC device has PCIe ethernet MAC attached to an integrated ethernet
switch using XGMII interface. The PCIe ethernet controller is presented to
the Linux host as PCI network device.
Management of integrated ethernet switch on this SoC is not handled via
the PCIe interface.
The following block diagram gives an overview of the application.

The MAC block on BCM8958x is based on Synopsis XGMAC 4.00a core. This
MAC IP introduces new DMA architecture called Hyper-DMA for virtualization
scalability.
Driver functionality specific to new MAC (DW25GMAC) is implemented in
new file dw25gmac.c.
v7->v8:
Addressed review comments from v7.
Patch2:
Add a helper function with common code for three setup functions
in dwxgmac2_core.c (Russell King).
Patch4:
Use stmmac_plat_dat_alloc() to allocate memory for
:plat_stmmacenet_data: (Russell King).
Changed few bool variable initialization to bool types in
dwxgmac_brcm_default_data().
Patch5:
Make use of plat->init, plat->exit handlers to cleanup
probe function error handling path (Russell King).
Use managed API to free irq vectors.
v6->v7:
Minor changes to v6 patchset adapting to recent changes net-next.
Patch1:
Make use of the core_type variable for MAC core identification.
Define enum value DWMAC_CORE_25GMAC and discard previous proposal to
add new variables in struct plat_stmmacenet_data.
Patch2:
Updated patch to latest net-next branch code base.
Patch3:
Modified hwif entry matching to use core_type DWMAC_CORE_25GMAC.
Patch4:
Adapted glue driver to match recent stmmac core changes.
Changed susped/resume functionality to use common framework.
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260313222206.778760-1-jitendra.vegiraju@broadcom.com/
v5->v6:
Change summary to address comments/suggestions by Serge Semin.
Patch1:
Removed the complexity of hdma mapping in previous patch series and
use static DMA mapping.
Renamed plat_stmmacenet_data::snps_dev_id as dev_id and moved to
the beginning of the struct.
Patch2:
Added dw25gmac_get_hw_feature() for dw25gmac.
Use static one-to-one VDMA-TC-PDMA mapping.
Patch4:
Remove usage of plat_stmmacenet_data::msi_*_vec variables for
interrupt vector initialization.
Change phy_interface type to XGMII.
Cleanup unused macros.

v4->v5:
Summary of changes in this patch series:
As suggested by Serge Semin, defined common setup function for dw25gmac.
To accommodate early adopter DW25GMAC used in BCM8958x device, provide
a mechanism to override snps_id and snps_dev_id used for driver entry
matching in hwif.c
Patch1:
Added plat_stmmacenet_data::snps_id,snps_dev_id fields - Serge Semin
Patch2:
Define common setup function for dw25gmac_setup() - Serge Semin
Support DW25GMAC IPs with varying VDMA/PDMA count - Abhishek Chauhan
Allocate and initialize hdma mapping configuration data dynamically
based on device's VDMA/PDMA feature capabilities in dw25gmac_setup().
Spelling errors in commit log, lower case 0x for hex -Amit Singh Tomar
Patch3:
Glue support in hwif.c for DW25GMAC in hwif.c - Serge Semin
Provide an option to override snps_id and snps_dev_id when the device
reports version info not conformant with driver's expectations as is
the case with BCM8958x device. - Serge Semin
Patch4:
Remove setup function in the glue driver - Serge Semin
Remove unnecessary calls pci_enable_device() and pci_set_master()
in dwxgmac_brcm_pci_resume() - Jakub Kicinski
Merge variable definitions to single line - Amit Singh Tomar
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240904054815.1341712-1-jitendra.vegiraju@broadcom.com/
v3->v4:
Based on Serge's questions, received a confirmation from Synopsys that
the MAC IP is indeed the new 25GMAC design.
Renamed all references of XGMAC4 to 25GMAC.
The patch series is rearranged slightly as follows.
Patch1 (new): Define HDMA mapping data structure in kernel's stmmac.h
Patch2 (v3 Patch1): Adds dma_ops for dw25gmac in stmmac core
Renamed new files dwxgmac4.* to dw25gmac.* - Serge Semin
Defined new Synopsis version and device id macros for DW25GMAC.
Converted bit operations to FIELD_PREP macros - Russell King
Moved hwif.h to this patch, Sparse flagged warning - Simon Horman
Defined macros for hardcoded values TDPS etc - Serge Semin
Read number of PDMAs/VDMAs from hardware - Serge Semin
Patch3 (v3 Patch2): Hooks in hardware interface handling for dw25gmac
Resolved user_version quirks questions - Serge, Russell, Andrew
Added new stmmac_hw entry for DW25GMAC. - Serge
Added logic to override synopsis_dev_id by glue driver.
Patch4 (v3 Patch3): Adds PCI driver for BCM8958x device
Define bitmmap macros for hardcoded values - Andrew Lunn
Added per device software node - Andrew Lunn
Patch5(new/split): Adds BCM8958x driver to build system
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240814221818.2612484-1-jitendra.vegiraju@broadcom.com/
v2->v3:
Addressed v2 comments from Andrew, Jakub, Russel and Simon.
Based on suggestion by Russel and Andrew, added software node to create
phylink in fixed-link mode.
Moved dwxgmac4 specific functions to new files dwxgmac4.c and dwxgmac4.h
in stmmac core module.
Reorganized the code to use the existing glue logic support for xgmac in
hwif.c and override ops functions for dwxgmac4 specific functions.
The patch is split into three parts.
Patch#1 Adds dma_ops for dwxgmac4 in stmmac core
Patch#2 Hooks in the hardware interface handling for dwxgmac4
Patch#3 Adds PCI driver for BCM8958x device
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240802031822.1862030-1-jitendra.vegiraju@broadcom.com/
v1->v2:
Minor fixes to address coding style issues.
Sent v2 too soon by mistake, without waiting for review comments.
Received feedback on this version.
