Hello, I own a Turris Omnia, which has basic support included in the Linux kernel (armada-385-turris-omnia.dts).
Apart from the 88E1514 PHY specified for eth2, the device also features an SFP cage, which uses the same SGMII of the Armada 385 SoC (a 2:1 multiplexer is driven by the MOD_DEF0 signal). Details can be found on page 5 of https://doc.turris.cz/doc/_media/rtrom01-schema.pdf As far as I understand the situation, phylink does not support such an architecture at the moment. This may be the reason why the SFP cage was never specified in the Turris Omnia DTS. Questions: - Is anybody already working on a solution? - If not, would something like the patch below be acceptable? - Any other suggestions, how to get this supported? Summary of the patch, which is based on the device tree published by Tomas (and my interpretation of phylink.c): I'm specifying *both* the SFP cage and the PHY in the node of the eth2 MAC. In phylink_of_connect, if SFP module is already present: Ignore any PHY specified by the devicetree. After SFP removal, restore the original (device tree based) configuration, which was determined by phylink_create et al. (I don't think that this would harm the generic use case) With this, "hot" insertion and removal work, as long as the network interface is down. I tested this successfully on my Turris Omnia, on a relatively recent openwrt-master (4.14 kernel). SFP module is a TP-LINK TL-SM321B. Insertion/removal in the "up" state would require more work. If this is considered necessary, I can give it a try. I am sorry, the patch is against the 4.14 (openwrt) kernel, but you get the basic idea. --- a/arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-385-turris-omnia.dts +++ b/arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-385-turris-omnia.dts @@ -115,6 +115,16 @@ }; }; }; + + sfp: sfp { + compatible = "sff,sfp"; + i2c-bus = <&i2csfp>; + tx-fault-gpios = <&pcawan 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; + tx-disable-gpios = <&pcawan 1 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; + rate-select0-gpios = <&pcawan 2 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; + los-gpios = <&pcawan 3 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; + mod-def0-gpios = <&pcawan 4 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>; + }; }; /* Connected to 88E6176 switch, port 6 */ @@ -148,6 +158,7 @@ status = "okay"; phy-mode = "sgmii"; phy = <&phy1>; + sfp = <&sfp>; }; &i2c0 { @@ -210,7 +221,7 @@ /* routed to PCIe2 connector (CN62A) */ }; - i2c@4 { + i2csfp: i2c@4 { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; reg = <4>; --- a/drivers/net/phy/phylink.c +++ b/drivers/net/phy/phylink.c @@ -58,6 +58,12 @@ struct phylink { bool mac_link_dropped; struct sfp_bus *sfp_bus; + + /* Things to remember across a module insertion/removal cycle */ + u8 default_an_mode; + u8 default_port; + struct phylink_link_state default_config; + bool sfp_module_present; }; static inline void linkmode_zero(unsigned long *dst) @@ -680,6 +686,10 @@ int phylink_of_phy_connect(struct phylin if (pl->link_an_mode == MLO_AN_FIXED) return 0; + /* If SFP module present, we do not need a separate PHY */ + if (pl->sfp_module_present) + return 0; + phy_node = of_parse_phandle(dn, "phy-handle", 0); if (!phy_node) phy_node = of_parse_phandle(dn, "phy", 0); @@ -1371,6 +1381,11 @@ static int phylink_sfp_module_insert(voi if (mode == MLO_AN_8023Z && pl->phydev) return -EINVAL; + pl->default_an_mode = pl->link_an_mode; + pl->default_port = pl->link_port; + pl->default_config = pl->link_config; + pl->sfp_module_present = true; + changed = !bitmap_equal(pl->supported, support, __ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NBITS); if (changed) { @@ -1399,6 +1414,16 @@ static int phylink_sfp_module_insert(voi return ret; } +static void phylink_sfp_module_remove(void *upstream) +{ + struct phylink *pl = upstream; + + pl->link_an_mode = pl->default_an_mode; + pl->link_port = pl->default_port; + pl->link_config = pl->default_config; + pl->sfp_module_present = false; +} + static void phylink_sfp_link_down(void *upstream) { struct phylink *pl = upstream; @@ -1432,6 +1457,7 @@ static void phylink_sfp_disconnect_phy(v static const struct sfp_upstream_ops sfp_phylink_ops = { .module_insert = phylink_sfp_module_insert, + .module_remove = phylink_sfp_module_remove, .link_up = phylink_sfp_link_up, .link_down = phylink_sfp_link_down, .connect_phy = phylink_sfp_connect_phy,
