net: stmmac: fix dwmac4 transmit performance regression
dwmac4's transmit performance dropped by a factor of four due to an incorrect assumption about which definitions are for what. This highlights the need for sane register macros. Commit 8409495bf6c9 ("net: stmmac: cores: remove many xxx_SHIFT definitions") changed the way the txpbl value is merged into the register: value = readl(ioaddr + DMA_CHAN_TX_CONTROL(dwmac4_addrs, chan)); - value = value | (txpbl << DMA_BUS_MODE_PBL_SHIFT); + value = value | FIELD_PREP(DMA_BUS_MODE_PBL, txpbl); With the following in the header file: #define DMA_BUS_MODE_PBL BIT(16) -#define DMA_BUS_MODE_PBL_SHIFT 16 The assumption here was that DMA_BUS_MODE_PBL was the mask for DMA_BUS_MODE_PBL_SHIFT, but this turns out not to be the case. The field is actually six bits wide, buts 21:16, and is called TXPBL. What's even more confusing is, there turns out to be a PBLX8 single bit in the DMA_CHAN_CONTROL register (0x1100 for channel 0), and DMA_BUS_MODE_PBL seems to be used for that. However, this bit et.al. was listed under a comment "/* DMA SYS Bus Mode bitmap */" which is for register 0x1004. Fix this up by adding an appropriately named field definition under the DMA_CHAN_TX_CONTROL() register address definition. Move the RPBL mask definition under DMA_CHAN_RX_CONTROL(), correctly renaming it as well. Also move the PBL bit definition under DMA_CHAN_CONTROL(), correctly renaming it. This removes confusion over the PBL fields.
