Now that the 'register_type' field of the 'sh_eth' driver's platform data is not
used by the driver anymore, it's time to remove it and  its initializers from
the SH platform code. Also  move *enum* declaring values for this  field from
<linux/sh_eth.h>  to  the  local driver's  header file as they're only needed
by the driver itself  now...

Hi Sergei,

Thank you for the patch.

Would it make sense to move this change and the one below to a separate patch 
to be merged through the net tree ?

Wouldn't it make sense to move the edmac_endian field to sh_eth_cpu_data as 
well ?

    I'm intending to merge these patches thru the net-next tree.

    No, it depends on the SoC endianness which is determined by power-on pin 
strapping -- which is board specific.

    BTW, I don't think the driver works correctly in the BE case since it uses 
io{read|write}32() to access the registers and those functions assume LE 
ordering on MMIO.

Does SoC endianness affect the ARM core endianness, the ethernet registers 
endianness, or both ? If it affects the ARM core endianness only, the kernel 
needs to be compiled in little-endian or big-endian mode anyway, and the 
sh_eth driver should use cpu_to_le32() unconditionally. If it affects both the 
ARM core and the ethernet controller there's not need to care about the 
endianness, as it will always be good. We only need to care about it if it 
affects the ethernet controller registers only, which would seem weird to me.

    Both, AFAIK.

    No, it won't unless you're using __raw_{readl|writel}() accessors. The 
driver doesn't do it. {readl|writel}() and io{read|write}32() that use them 
always assume LE ordering of memory.

    Unfortunately, you are wrong.

Care to explain *why* ? There might be bugs in the driver (such as using the 
wrong I/O accessors), but I don't see why we need to configure the endianness 
through platform data.

    Re-read my reply about the power-on pin strapping please. The SoC 
endianness setting gets read from the external source to the SoC, i.e. it's 
determined by the board.

Unless that pin doesn't affect the CPU core (in which case I wonder what it's 
used for), the kernel will need to be compiled for the specified endianness 
anyway. Endianness conversion can thus be performed with cpu_to_* (if the 
registers endianness is fixed) or skipped completely (if the registers 
endianness is also configured by the bootstrap pin) by using raw I/O 
accessors. Modifications will be need in the sh_eth driver, but I don't see 
why the driver would need to receive endianness information from platform data 
or DT.

    The thing is I don't have the necessary information about SH SoCs for 
which the 'edmac_endian' field was first added. I'm basing my assumptions on 
the R-Car manuals which claim that both register and DMA descriptor endianness 
depend on the SoC endianness (which is selected by the MD8 pin at power-on). 
So I don't even understand why it's called 'edmac_endian' based on this info, 
as it apparently determines only DMA descriptor endianness.

    Unfortunately, the raw accessors also miss the barriers which might be 
necessary.

    So you suggest that we use __LITTLE_ENDIAN/__BIG_ENDIAN pre-defined macros 
as when we're programing the EDMR.EL bit to enable automatic data swapping 
feature (it doesn't swap register or descriptors, only the raw data)?

WBR, Sergei

Neither do I. Reading the documentation I just had doubts, hence my questions. 
I doubt that the MD8 pin modifies the endianness of all registers, as that 
would probably be very costly from a silicon point of view, but everything is 
possible.

But it would be pretty trivial if needed to create and use in the driver 
accessors with barriers based on the raw accessors.

Based on my understanding, I believe that we either

- don't need different register access codes paths for little and big endian 
(for a variety of reasons, as explained in the previous e-mails in this 
thread)

- need different code paths, but can make the decision at compile time instead 
of runtime because the CPU core endianness changes as well, which forces a 
recompilation anyway

I would thus suggest to use the right combination of cpu_to_[bl]e*, raw 
accessors (with added barriers), #ifdef __LITTLE_ENDIAN/__BIG_ENDIAN and 
EDMR.EL settings to remove the edmac_endian field.

What the right combination is isn't know yet, we can experiment later when 
we'll get a big-endian system. I'm fine with keeping the field in the platform 
data structure for reference until then, but let's not add it to the DT 
bindings.
