Subject: Re: [PATCH RFC 3/3] Altera TSE: Add Altera Triple Speed Ethernet
 (TSE) Driver

Hello Florian, thank you for taking the time to comments. My responses inline.

I'll break down the next submission.

I did consider this, but after studying the dmaengine api I found the
API definitions and semantics were not a match to the way the SGDMA
and MSGDMA behave collectively. Moreover, I could not find an example
of an Ethernet driver that made use of the dmaengine API - only the
Micrel driver seems to use it. When studying what components actually
used the dmaengine API I concluded the dmaengine API was defined for
use cases different than Ethernet.

This number applies to the number of descriptors as limited by the
MSGDMA capabilities. The SGDMA has different limitations and issues,
but the maximum number of descriptors for either DMA engine that can
be used is represented as shown above. This is important since an
unusual hardware configuration could support both SGDMA and MSGDMA
simultaneously for more than one TSE instance. I used a design that
supported a single SGDMA with TSE and a single MSGDMA with TSE for
testing purposes (among other designs). So this a hardware defined
number of descriptors and is fixed.

The full name will exceed the characters available in that particular
structure data member. MII_BUS_ID_SIZE is defined as (20-3) in
include/linux/phy.h. The full name would exceed the allocated space in
that structure. That's why this method was chosen.

I wrote the code this way intentionally to be explicit. I'll check the
API for behavior as you describe for both ARM and NIOS and if not
handled this barrier should probably remain.

This was an oversight from some churn in this area, will address.

The intent was to add Scatter Gather capabilities at some point in the
future, so this was a form of documenting. I'll just drop the code and
add a comment instead if you agree.

This seems to be the normal place to probe and initialize the phy from
examination of existing code. Perhaps I missed something, could you
provide an example of where this is done differently?

If you mean phy_stop calls netif_carrier_off, I don't see it in that
function (phy/phy.c). Common usage in the intree drivers seems to be
calling netif_carrier_off in this context, but perhaps the drivers I
examined have not been updated. Is there some more specific feedback
or comments that you could provide here? Do you mean that
netif_carrier_off is unnecessary here?

The intent here is to support legacy device trees that were created
with upper case "ALTR".

Noted. If we can agree that use of the dmaengine api is inappropriate
in this case, I'll update the code to use a .data pointer as
suggested. Thank you for the comment.

The TSE core handles frame size expansion for VLAN tagged frames, so
it's ok (tested). At some point, frame sizes > 1518 may be supported
(the core supports Jumbo frames, the driver is intentionally simple
for initial submission). Your comment is noted, I accept the
suggestion.

Agreed, the code tries phy handles as described in the ePAPR v1.1
specification, then falls back to the method in question. The intent
is to support legacy device trees as well. Is there a preferred way to
handle legacy configurations that we may encounter in the wild?
