commit f592cc5794747b81e53b53dd6e80219ee25f0611 upstream.

Each RPMh VRM accelerator resource has 3 or 4 contiguous 4-byte aligned
addresses associated with it. These control voltage, enable state, mode,
and in legacy targets, voltage headroom. The current in-flight request
checking logic looks for exact address matches. Requests for different
addresses of the same RPMh resource as thus not detected as in-flight.

Add new cmd-db API cmd_db_match_resource_addr() to enhance the in-flight
request check for VRM requests by ignoring the address offset.

This ensures that only one request is allowed to be in-flight for a given
VRM resource. This is needed to avoid scenarios where request commands are
carried out by RPMh hardware out-of-order leading to LDO regulator
over-current protection triggering.

[ Upstream commit 914f8b228ede709274b8c80514b352248ec9da00 ]

This adds a function to update a CGR with new parameters. qman_create_cgr
can almost be used for this (with flags=0), but it's not suitable because
it also registers the callback function. The _safe variant was modeled off
of qman_cgr_delete_safe. However, we handle multiple arguments and a return
value.

[ Upstream commit 7a94b83a7dc551607b6c4400df29151e6a951f07 ]

On SAMA7G5, when resuming from backup and self-refresh, the bootloader
performs DDR PHY recalibration by restoring the value of ZQ0SR0 (stored
in RAM by Linux before going to backup and self-refresh). It has been
discovered that the current procedure doesn't work for all possible values
that might go to ZQ0SR0 due to hardware bug. The workaround to this is to
avoid storing some values in ZQ0SR0. Thus Linux will read the ZQ0SR0
register and cache its value in RAM after processing it (using
modified_gray_code array). The bootloader will restore the processed value.

[ Upstream commit a02875c4cbd6f3d2f33d70cc158a19ef02d4b84f ]

It has been discovered that on some parts, from time to time, self-refresh
procedure doesn't work as expected. Debugging and investigating it proved
that disabling AC DLL introduce glitches in RAM controllers which
leads to unexpected behavior. This is confirmed as a hardware bug. DLL
bypass disables 3 DLLs: 2 DX DLLs and AC DLL. Thus, keep only DX DLLs
disabled. This introduce 6mA extra current consumption on VDDCORE when
switching to any ULP mode or standby mode but the self-refresh procedure
still works.

Michael reported that when using the "ocelot-8021q" tagging protocol,
the switch driver module must be manually loaded before the tagging
protocol can be loaded/is available.

This appears to be the same problem described here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210908220834.d7gmtnwrorhharna@skbuf/
where due to the fact that DSA tagging protocols make use of symbols
exported by the switch drivers, circular dependencies appear and this
breaks module autoloading.

The ocelot_8021q driver needs the ocelot_can_inject() and
ocelot_port_inject_frame() functions from the switch library. Previously
the wrong approach was taken to solve that dependency: shims were
provided for the case where the ocelot switch library was compiled out,
but that turns out to be insufficient, because the dependency when the
switch lib _is_ compiled is problematic too.

We cannot declare ocelot_can_inject() and ocelot_port_inject_frame() as
static inline functions, because these access I/O functions like
__ocelot_write_ix() which is called by ocelot_write_rix(). Making those
static inline basically means exposing the whole guts of the ocelot
switch library, not ideal...

We already have one tagging protocol driver which calls into the switch
driver during xmit but not using any exported symbol: sja1105_defer_xmit.
We can do the same thing here: create a kthread worker and one work item
per skb, and let the switch driver itself do the register accesses to
send the skb, and then consume it.

As explained here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210908220834.d7gmtnwrorhharna@skbuf/
DSA tagging protocol drivers cannot depend on symbols exported by switch
drivers, because this creates a circular dependency that breaks module
autoloading.

The tag_ocelot.c file depends on the ocelot_ptp_rew_op() function
exported by the common ocelot switch lib. This function looks at
OCELOT_SKB_CB(skb) and computes how to populate the REW_OP field of the
DSA tag, for PTP timestamping (the command: one-step/two-step, and the
TX timestamp identifier).

None of that requires deep insight into the driver, it is quite
stateless, as it only depends upon the skb-&gt;cb. So let's make it a
static inline function and put it in include/linux/dsa/ocelot.h, a
file that despite its name is used by the ocelot switch driver for
populating the injection header too - since commit 40d3f295b5fe ("net:
mscc: ocelot: use common tag parsing code with DSA").

With that function declared as static inline, its body is expanded
inside each call site, so the dependency is broken and the DSA tagger
can be built without the switch library, upon which the felix driver
depends.

mscc: ocelot: use common tag parsing code with DSA").

With that function declared as static inline, its body is expanded
inside each call site, so the dependency is broken and the DSA tagger
can be built without the switch library, upon which the felix driver
depends.

<title>net: mscc: ocelot: cross-check the sequence id from the timestamp FIFO with the skb PTP header</title>

The sad reality is that when a PTP frame with a TX timestamping request
is transmitted, it isn't guaranteed that it will make it all the way to
the wire (due to congestion inside the switch), and that a timestamp
will be taken by the hardware and placed in the timestamp FIFO where an
IRQ will be raised for it.

The implication is that if enough PTP frames are silently dropped by the
hardware such that the timestamp ID has rolled over, it is possible to
match a timestamp to an old skb.

Furthermore, nobody will match on the real skb corresponding to this
timestamp, since we stupidly matched on a previous one that was stale in
the queue, and stopped there.

So PTP timestamping will be broken and there will be no way to recover.

It looks like the hardware parses the sequenceID from the PTP header,
and also provides that metadata for each timestamp. The driver currently
ignores this, but it shouldn't.

As an extra resiliency measure, do the following:

- check whether the PTP sequenceID also matches between the skb and the
  timestamp, treat the skb as stale otherwise and free it

- if we see a stale skb, don't stop there and try to match an skb one
  more time, chances are there's one more skb in the queue with the same
  timestamp ID, otherwise we wouldn't have ever found the stale one (it
  is by timestamp ID that we matched it).

While this does not prevent PTP packet drops, it at least prevents
the catastrophic consequences of incorrect timestamp matching.

Since we already call ptp_classify_raw in the TX path, save the result
in the skb-&gt;cb of the clone, and just use that result in the interrupt
code path.

<title>net: mscc: ocelot: avoid overflowing the PTP timestamp FIFO</title>

PTP packets with 2-step TX timestamp requests are matched to packets
based on the egress port number and a 6-bit timestamp identifier.
All PTP timestamps are held in a common FIFO that is 128 entry deep.

This patch ensures that back-to-back timestamping requests cannot exceed
the hardware FIFO capacity. If that happens, simply send the packets
without requesting a TX timestamp to be taken (in the case of felix,
since the DSA API has a void return code in ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_txtstamp) or
drop them (in the case of ocelot).

I've moved the ts_id_lock from a per-port basis to a per-switch basis,
because we need separate accounting for both numbers of PTP frames in
flight. And since we need locking to inc/dec the per-switch counter,
that also offers protection for the per-port counter and hence there is
no reason to have a per-port counter anymore.
