Subject: [PATCH net-next 00/10] mlxsw: Expose transceiver overheat counter

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@...dia.com>

Amit says:

An overheated transceiver can be the root cause of various network
problems such as link flapping. Counting the number of times a
transceiver's temperature was higher than its configured threshold can
therefore help in debugging such issues.

This patch set exposes a transceiver overheat counter via ethtool. This
is achieved by configuring the Spectrum ASIC to generate events whenever
a transceiver is overheated. The temperature thresholds are queried from
the transceiver (if available) and set to the default otherwise.

Example:

# ethtool -S swp1
...
transceiver_overheat: 2

Patch set overview:

Patches #1-#3 add required device registers
Patches #4-#5 add required infrastructure in mlxsw to configure and
count overheat events
Patches #6-#9 gradually add support for the transceiver overheat counter
Patch #10 exposes the transceiver overheat counter via ethtool
