KSZ9031 phy support for the 3.2 kernel
Added by Timothy Entinger about 8 years ago
We are using a Critical Link BSP for the MitySOM using the AM335x and a baseboard that has the Micrel KSZ9031 ethernet phy on it. For a distro, we are using TI's old Arago distribution running the 3.2 kernel. Support for the phy was not available from Micrel for the 3.2 kernel and Critical Link provided us a branch of the kernel with the phy working.
We now have a need to limit the ethernet phy to 10/100 mbps, but have found that the standard linux tools (ethtool and mii-tool) are not able to set this mode. The tools do not work because the micrel.c file for the phy's does not have an entry for the KSZ9031. Rather the board file does the setup of the phy chip directly. We are not certain which driver (cspw maybe?) the kernel is associating with the phy after it boots.
In U-boot, we can succesfully put the phy into different modes using the mii command.
Here are some of the things we have tried.
1) Writing to the phy's internal registers after the kernel reset's the phy at start-up.
//Added this code to the am335x_ksz9031_phy_fixup function.
val = 0x0000;
val = 0x2000 | 0x0100; //Disable autonegotiation; Set speed to 100 full duplex
//write to the basic control register
if (phy_write(phydev, 0, val) < 0) {
pr_err("Error setting speed to 100mbps full duplex\n");
return 1;
}
Also tried this code instead
//Read contents of 1000 Base-t control register
val = phy_read(phydev, 9);
if (val < 0) {
pr_err("Error reading 1000 Base-t control reg \n");
return val;
}
val &= 0xFCFF; //Disable bits 8, 9; do not advertise 1000 on autonegotiation
if (phy_write(phydev, 9, val) < 0) {
pr_err("Error writing to 1000 Base-t control reg\n");
return 1;
}
2) Setting the preferred mode of the phy in U-boot and booting the kernel (with and without the reset enabled).

Here is a dump of the phy's internal registers on booting after it has been reset by the GPIO line with no modifcations other than to read and print the register contents at the end of am335x_ksz9031_phy_fixup. The phy works properly here, but will autonegotiate to 1000 mbps.

I recently worked on this a bit.
Here are some u-boot patches to disable gigabit in u-boot. This won't affect linux as you've noticed.
http://support.criticallink.com/gitweb/?p=u-boot-mityarm-335x.git;a=commit;h=ae1697ccf66a6d57347780600a94cd11bb7fd2f9

This is just an example of setting the "disable_giga" env field in the som.c file. You could always store it in the uEnv.txt file if booting from sd card or save it to nand using saveenv.

I'll follow up with a post for the kernel.

In the 3.2 kernel, looking at drivers/net/phy/micrel.c. There does appear to be an entry for the KSZ9031 phy.
http://support.criticallink.com/gitweb/?p=linux-mityarm-335x.git;a=blob;f=drivers/net/phy/micrel.c;h=94c7d8fd0f5a82d878b0f28cf42709ca1bf5ead5;hb=HEAD#l415
And we enable the "CONFIG_MICREL_PHY=y" in our defconfig.
Note that the auto negotiation is configured in genphy_config_advert():
http://support.criticallink.com/gitweb/?p=linux-mityarm-335x.git;a=blob;f=drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c;h=56d91914b36c2d3ce7a4ffd4bc6330bc64de27ec;hb=HEAD#l573
Note on line 573 it masks advertising based on supported however on line 606 it won't configure the gigabit registers if gigabit isn't supported. So its important to only clear the phydev->advertising gigabit fields and not the phydev->supported gigabit fields.
In your phy fixup you should be able to do something similar to the u-boot patch to disable advertising.
+ phydev->advertising &= ~(SUPPORTED_1000baseT_Half | + SUPPORTED_1000baseT_Full);
If this doesn't work, I would add some print statements into the genphy_config_advert() and your fixup code to make sure your fixup is running and setting the field correctly.

I haven't tried you're suggestions yet. I will be able to this afternoon.
The kernel source we're using is much further back on the development tree, here's my dmesg output when I boot.

Is it possible that just updating the micrel.c file will be enough to get proper support from ethtool?
RE: KSZ9031 phy support for the 3.2 kernel - Added by Jonathan Cormier about 8 years ago
Looking at my JCI kernel branch it does show that it was before we added the micrel phy support. You mentioned we gave you a more updated version with micrel support?
Do you have the following commits in your kernel tree? If so then you just need to enable CONFIG_MICREL_PHY=y

RE: KSZ9031 phy support for the 3.2 kernel - Added by Timothy Entinger about 8 years ago
Hi Everyone,
Merging in the changes from the tag (mitysom_AM335XPSP_04.06.00.07) worked for us to limit the ethernet speeds for the phy.
I removed the phy fixup function that was being called.
To reduce the speeds I modified the phy config table for the 9031 and set it to basic features instead of gigabit.
.phy_id = PHY_ID_KSZ9031,
.phy_id_mask = 0x00fffff0,
.name = "Micrel KSZ9031 Reduced Gigabit PHY",
.features = (PHY_BASIC_FEATURES | SUPPORTED_Pause),
.flags = PHY_HAS_MAGICANEG | PHY_HAS_INTERRUPT,
.config_init = kszphy_config_init,
.config_aneg = genphy_config_aneg,
.read_status = genphy_read_status,
.ack_interrupt = kszphy_ack_interrupt,
.config_intr = ksz9021_config_intr,
.suspend = genphy_suspend,
.resume = genphy_resume,
.driver = { .owner = THIS_MODULE, },
Thank you for the quick responses and support.
