From e01885c31bef7c2c5fcb79dc192039f25e300ded Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amit Cohen Date: Fri, 12 Aug 2022 17:32:03 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mlxsw: spectrum_ptp: Forbid PTP enablement only in RX or in TX Currently mlxsw driver configures one global PTP configuration for all ports. The reason is that the switch behaves like a transparent clock between CPU port and front-panel ports. When time stamp is enabled in any port, the hardware is configured to update the correction field. The fact that the configuration of CPU port affects all the ports, makes the correction field update to be global for all ports. Otherwise, user will see odd values in the correction field, as the switch will update the correction field in the CPU port, but not in all the front-panel ports. The CPU port is relevant in both RX and TX, so to avoid problematic configuration, forbid PTP enablement only in one direction, i.e., only in RX or TX. Without the change: $ hwstamp_ctl -i swp1 -r 12 -t 0 current settings: tx_type 0 rx_filter 0 new settings: tx_type 0 rx_filter 2 $ echo $? 0 With the change: $ hwstamp_ctl -i swp1 -r 12 -t 0 current settings: tx_type 1 rx_filter 2 SIOCSHWTSTAMP failed: Invalid argument Fixes: 08ef8bc825d96 ("mlxsw: spectrum_ptp: Support SIOCGHWTSTAMP, SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctls") Signed-off-by: Amit Cohen Reviewed-by: Petr Machata Signed-off-by: Petr Machata Signed-off-by: David S.
