Extend the DPLL subsystem with a new DPLL type, DPLL_TYPE_TXC,
representing devices that drive a transmit reference clock. Certain
PHYs, MACs and SerDes blocks use a dedicated TX reference clock for
link operation, and this clock domain is distinct from PPS- and
EEC-driven synchronization sources. Defining a dedicated type allows
user space and drivers to correctly classify and configure DPLLs
intended for TX clock generation.
The corresponding netlink specification is updated to expose "txc"

Relax the (module, clock_id) equality requirement when registering a
pin identified by firmware (pin->fwnode). Some platforms associate a
FW-described pin with a DPLL instance that differs from the pin's
(module, clock_id) tuple. For such pins, permit registration without
requiring the strict match. Non-FW pins still require equality.

Extend the DPLL pin notification API to include a source identifier
indicating where the notification originates. This allows notifier
consumers and netlink listeners to distinguish between notifications
coming from an associated DPLL instance, a parent pin, or the pin
itself.
A new field, src_id, is added to struct dpll_pin_notifier_info and is
passed through all pin-related notification paths. Callers of
dpll_pin_notify() are updated to provide a meaningful source identifier
based on their context:
- pin registration/unregistration use the DPLL's clock_id,
- pin-on-pin operations use the parent pin's clock_id,
- pin changes use the pin's own clock_id.
This enables richer event routing and more accurate state handling in
user space and in-kernel consumers.
The current DPLL pin notification infrastructure does not provide any
way to identify where a pin-related notification originates. Both the
in-kernel notifier chain and the netlink notification path only carry
information about the pin itself, not about the component that triggered
the event.
This becomes problematic on platforms where multiple DPLL devices or
drivers share the same physical pin via firmware description (fwnode).
In such setups pin creation, deletion, or state changes can be triggered
from several independent contexts:
- from the DPLL device that owns the pin,
- from another DPLL device that re-registers or rebinds the same
fwnode-described pin,
- or from a pin-on-pin relationship (parent pin registering child
pins).
Without a source identifier all these notifications look identical to
listeners. Drivers cannot reliably determine whether a received event
is a result of their own registration/unregistration actions or
originated from a different DPLL instance. This leads to several types
of problems:
* risk of duplicate pin registration when a driver reacts to its own
event,
* difficulty suppressing notifications that are merely internal
bookkeeping side effects,
* inability to implement correct pin‑multiplexing or cross‑device
synchronization logic when pins are shared across fwnode domains.
To address this, extend `struct dpll_pin_notifier_info` with a new
`src_id` field that identifies the originator of the event. The DPLL
core sets this field for all pin notifications:
- pin registration/unregistration: the source is the clock_id of the
DPLL initiating the operation,
- pin-on-pin relationships: the source is the parent pin's clock_id,
- pin property/state updates: the source is the pin's own clock_id.
Netlink notifications now also carry this additional field.
With this information notifier consumers can differentiate true external
events from internal ones and ignore the latter when appropriate.
As shown later in this series, ICE/E825 devices rely on this to avoid
reacting to the events that their own registration logic triggers
when a shared-fwnode pin appears.
This change only extends the notification metadata and does not alter
existing semantics for drivers that do not use the new field.

The SyncE_Ref pin may operate as either an active or inactive reference
depending on board design and system configuration. Some platforms need
to disable the SyncE reference dynamically (e.g., when selecting a
different recovered clock input). The hardware supports toggling this
pin, therefore advertise the STATE_CAN_CHANGE capability.

I'm wondering about the purpose of this flag, or rather the need to set
it manually from the driver. Surely, the existence of the
state_on_dpll_set() or state_on_pin_set() callback clearly indicates
this capability.
Wouldn't it be simpler for the core to set it directly based on this?

Hi Ivan, thanks for your review!
Yeah, I don't like the way I implemented it, but it was the simplest way.
It was more about to introduce what's needed to achieve this patchset goal.
According to your suggestion, I gave it a try with such a simple change
on pin registration (of course we need that also for pin_on_pin):
@@ -896,6 +896,9 @@ dpll_pin_register(struct dpll_device *dpll, struct dpll_pin *pin,

+
+ if (!ret && ops->state_on_dpll_set)
+ pin->prop.capabilities |= DPLL_PIN_CAPABILITIES_STATE_CAN_CHANGE;
and it of course works.
My concern is that it's a kind of implicit property/capability enablement.
Will wait on more feedback on this.

Introduce a TX clock DPLL instance and pins for E825-based devices.
The TXC domain exposes two reference pins:
- EXT_EREF0 (board external electrical reference)
- SYNCE (port-derived reference, described via fwnode)
A new pin type (ICE_DPLL_PIN_TYPE_TXCLK) and pin ops are added. The
SYNCE pin is registered when its fwnode becomes available, while
EXT_EREF0 is registered directly. The notifier worker is updated to
register/unregister TXC pins and to ignore notifications that are a
side effect of internal registration by checking the src_id.
A new per-pin attribute tracks the TX reference source
(enum ice_e825c_ref_clk). The TXC DPLL device is created and torn
down alongside existing PPS/EEC devices on E825, with specific init
and deinit flows for the TXC pins.
Current TXC pin state getters return DISCONNECTED as a placeholder;
hardware-backed state reporting will be implemented in a follow-up.

Add full CPI (Converged PHY Interface) command handling required for
E825C devices. The CPI interface allows the driver to interact with
PHY-side control logic through the LM/PHY command registers, including
enabling/disabling/selection of PHY reference clock.
This patch introduces:
- a new CPI subsystem (ice_cpi.c / ice_cpi.h) implementing the CPI
request/acknowledge state machine, including REQ/ACK protocol,
command execution, and response handling
- helper functions for reading/writing PHY registers over Sideband
Queue
- CPI command execution API (ice_cpi_exec) and a helper for enabling or
disabling Tx reference clocks (CPI 0xF1 opcode 'Config PHY clocking')
- addition of the non-posted write opcode (wr_np) to SBQ
- Makefile integration to build CPI support together with the PTP stack
This provides the infrastructure necessary to support PHY-side
configuration flows on E825C and is required for advanced link control
and Tx reference clock management.

Extend the Restart Auto-Negotiation (AN) AdminQ command with a new
parameter allowing software to specify the Tx reference clock index to
be used during link restart.
This patch:
- adds REFCLK field definitions to ice_aqc_restart_an
- updates ice_aq_set_link_restart_an() to take a new refclk parameter
and properly encode it into the command
- keeps legacy behavior by passing REFCLK_NOCHANGE where appropriate
This prepares the driver for configurations requiring dynamic selection
of the Tx reference clock as part of the AN flow.

Add full support for selecting and controlling the TX SERDES reference
clock on E825C hardware. E825C devicede supports selecting among
multiple SERDES transmit reference clock sources (ENET, SyncE, EREF0),
but imposes several routing constraints: on some paths a reference
must be enabled on both PHY complexes, and ports sharing a PHY must
coordinate usage so that a reference is not disabled while still in
active use. Until now the driver did not expose this domain through
the DPLL API, nor did it provide a coherent control layer for enabling,
switching, or tracking TX reference clocks.
This patch implements full TX reference clock management for E825
devices. Compared to previous iterations, the logic is now separated
into a dedicated module (ice_txclk.c) which encapsulates all
clock-selection rules, cross‑PHY dependencies, and the bookkeeping
needed to ensure safe transitions. This allows the DPLL layer and
the PTP code to remain focused on their respective roles.
Key additions:
* A new txclk control module (`ice_txclk.c`) implementing:
- software usage tracking for each reference clock per PHY,
- peer‑PHY enable rules (SyncE required on both PHYs when used on
PHY0, EREF0 required on both when used on PHY1),
- safe disabling of unused reference clocks after switching,
- a single, driver‑internal entry point for clock changes.
* Integration with the DPLL pin ops:
- pin‑set now calls into `ice_txclk_set_clk()` to request a
hardware switch,
- pin‑get reports the current SERDES reference by reading back the
active selector (`ice_get_serdes_ref_sel_e825c()`).
* Wiring the requested reference clock into Auto‑Negotiation restart
through the already‑extended `ice_aq_set_link_restart_an()`.
* After each link-up the driver verifies the effective hardware state
(`ice_txclk_verify()`) and updates its per‑PHY usage bitmaps,
correcting the requested/active state if the FW or AN flow applied a
different reference.
* PTP PF initialization now seeds the ENET reference clock as enabled
by default for its port.
All reference clock transitions are serialized through the DPLL lock,
and usage information is shared across all PFs belonging to the
same E825C controller PF. This ensures that concurrent changes are
coordinated and that shared PHYs never see an unexpected disable.
With this patch, E825 devices gain full userspace‑driven TXC reference
clock selection via the DPLL subsystem, enabling complete SyncE support,
precise multi‑clock setups, and predictable clock routing behavior.

> Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH v2 net-next 8/8] ice: add TX
> reference clock (tx_clk) control for E825 devices
>
> Add full support for selecting and controlling the TX SERDES reference
> clock on E825C hardware. E825C devicede supports selecting among
> multiple SERDES transmit reference clock sources (ENET, SyncE, EREF0),
> but imposes several routing constraints: on some paths a reference
> must be enabled on both PHY complexes, and ports sharing a PHY must
> coordinate usage so that a reference is not disabled while still in
> active use. Until now the driver did not expose this domain through
> the DPLL API, nor did it provide a coherent control layer for
> enabling, switching, or tracking TX reference clocks.
>
> This patch implements full TX reference clock management for E825
> devices. Compared to previous iterations, the logic is now separated
> into a dedicated module (ice_txclk.c) which encapsulates all clock-
> selection rules, cross‑PHY dependencies, and the bookkeeping needed to
> ensure safe transitions. This allows the DPLL layer and the PTP code
> to remain focused on their respective roles.
>
> Key additions:
>
> * A new txclk control module (`ice_txclk.c`) implementing:
> - software usage tracking for each reference clock per PHY,
> - peer‑PHY enable rules (SyncE required on both PHYs when used
> on
> PHY0, EREF0 required on both when used on PHY1),
> - safe disabling of unused reference clocks after switching,
> - a single, driver‑internal entry point for clock changes.
>
> * Integration with the DPLL pin ops:
> - pin‑set now calls into `ice_txclk_set_clk()` to request a
> hardware switch,
> - pin‑get reports the current SERDES reference by reading back
> the
> active selector (`ice_get_serdes_ref_sel_e825c()`).
>
> * Wiring the requested reference clock into Auto‑Negotiation restart
> through the already‑extended `ice_aq_set_link_restart_an()`.
>
> * After each link-up the driver verifies the effective hardware
> state
> (`ice_txclk_verify()`) and updates its per‑PHY usage bitmaps,
> correcting the requested/active state if the FW or AN flow applied
> a
> different reference.
>
> * PTP PF initialization now seeds the ENET reference clock as
> enabled
> by default for its port.
>
> All reference clock transitions are serialized through the DPLL lock,
> and usage information is shared across all PFs belonging to the same
> E825C controller PF. This ensures that concurrent changes are
> coordinated and that shared PHYs never see an unexpected disable.
>
> With this patch, E825 devices gain full userspace‑driven TXC reference
> clock selection via the DPLL subsystem, enabling complete SyncE
> support, precise multi‑clock setups, and predictable clock routing
> behavior.

Thanks Aleks for your comment.
Hmm ... 'yes' and 'no'.
Setting different tx-clk is a multistage process.
Please note, in this implementation, the final verification whether switching
succeeded or not, is done in ice_txclk_verify function.
At this point what we know is that AN restart failed (it might be many reasons for that).
I think, what is worth to change, is the error message which should be more
about AN restart failure.
