[PATCH] net: stmmac: dwmac-loongson: Set correct {tx,rx}_fifo_size
Posted by Huacai Chen 11 months ago 
Now for dwmac-loongson {tx,rx}_fifo_size are uninitialised, which means
zero. This means dwmac-loongson doesn't support changing MTU, so set the
correct tx_fifo_size and rx_fifo_size for it (16KB multiplied by channel
counts).

Note: the Fixes tag is not exactly right, but it is a key commit of the
dwmac-loongson series.

Please provide more details here than "doesn't support changing".
Does it return an error every time, but the device is operating
correctly?

Do the flow control thresholds also get programmed incorrectly?

Please pick a better one, then. Oldest commit where issue can be
observed by the user is usually a safe choice.

Please use 12 chars of the hash in the tag.

Is this really right? 16k times the number of queues seems like you're
just trying to get the main driver to calculate 16k. 
What if user decreases the queue count? Maybe you should add a way to
communicate the fifo size regardless of the queue count to the main
driver?

Hi, Jakub,

Sorry for the late reply.

OK, I will give more details, the root cause is stmmac_change_mtu()
fails if txfifosz is zero.

Emmm, the commit I picked is the oldest in the "stmmac: Add Loongson
platform support".

OK, will do.

Here {tx,rx}_fifo_size is initialised before stmmac_dvr_probe(), so it
uses the maximum {tx,rx}_queues_to_use to calculate.

If we use ethtool to decrease queue count, stmmac_change_mtu() will
get txfifosz larger than 16K, but stmmac_change_mtu() can still work
because there is a condition "if ((txfifosz < new_mtu) || (new_mtu >
BUF_SIZE_16KiB))".

This is not perfect, but it seems a perfect solution needs to rework
the main driver, and dwmac-intel also uses {tx,rx}_queues_to_use to
calculate {tx,rx}_fifo_size now.

Thanks, this change looks good to me.
And I agree that MTU setting cannot succeed without it.

Some process notes regarding Networking patches to keep
in mind for next time.

1. Please set the target tree. In this case, as this is a fix
   for code present in net. In general, otherwise it would be net-next.

   Subject: [PATCH net] ...

2. Please generate a CC list using

   ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl this.patch

   The b4 tool can help with this.
