Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 1/2] dpll: add fractional frequency offset to pin-parent-device
Date: Mon, 4 May 2026 17:53:39 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260504155340.411063-2-ivecera@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260504155340.411063-1-ivecera@redhat.com>
Add both fractional-frequency-offset (PPM) and
fractional-frequency-offset-ppt (PPT) attributes to the
pin-parent-device nested attribute set, alongside the existing
top-level pin attributes. Both carry the same measurement at
different precisions.
Distinguish the two contexts in the ffo_get callback by passing
dpll=NULL for the top-level call and a valid dpll pointer for the
nested per-parent call. This allows drivers to report a different
value per parent DPLL if needed. Update mlx5 and zl3073x drivers
to return -ENODATA for the context they do not yet support.
Add documentation for both FFO attributes to dpll.rst.
Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com>

+Fractional frequency offset
+===========================
+
+The fractional frequency offset (FFO) is reported through two attributes
+that carry the same measurement at different precisions:
+
+- ``DPLL_A_PIN_FRACTIONAL_FREQUENCY_OFFSET`` in PPM (parts per million)
+- ``DPLL_A_PIN_FRACTIONAL_FREQUENCY_OFFSET_PPT`` in PPT (parts per trillion)
+
+Both attributes appear at the top level of a pin and inside each
+``pin-parent-device`` nest. The driver's ``ffo_get`` callback receives
+a NULL ``dpll`` pointer for the top-level context and a valid pointer
+for the per-parent context, allowing it to distinguish the two if
+needed (e.g. report a different measurement per parent DPLL).
