Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next 2/2] net: ethernet: ti: inter-core-virt-eth: Register as network device

Register the RPMsg driver as network device and add support for
basic ethernet functionality by using the shared memory for data
plane.

The shared memory layout is as below, with the region between
PKT_1_LEN to PKT_N modelled as circular buffer.

-------------------------
| HEAD |
-------------------------
| TAIL |
-------------------------
| PKT_1_LEN |
| PKT_1 |
-------------------------
| PKT_2_LEN |
| PKT_2 |
-------------------------
| . |
| . |
-------------------------
| PKT_N_LEN |
| PKT_N |
-------------------------

The offset between the HEAD and TAIL is polled to process the Rx packets.

Hi Ravi,

some feedback, mainly regarding issues flagged by linters and static analysis.

Please remove TEST_DEBUG and associated code.
This does not seem appropriate for upstream.

Networking (still) prefers code to be < 80 columns wide.
In this case I'd probably go for (completely untested!):

num_pkts = tail - head;
if (num_pkts <= 0)
num_pkts = num_pkts + port->icve_max_buffers;

Please consider running checkpatch as it is run by the CI.

Smatch warns that mod_timer takes an absolute time rather than an offset.
So, perhaps (completely untested!):

mod_timer(&port->rx_timer, jiffies + RX_POLL_TIMEOUT);

> + }

If any arm of an if statement has {} then all should,
but {} is not needed unless there is more than one statement
convered by conditions.

So (completely untested!):

if (num_pkts && likely(napi_schedule_prep(napi)))
__napi_schedule(napi);
else
mod_timer(&port->rx_timer, jiffies + RX_POLL_TIMEOUT);

nit: Please use reverse xmas tree - longest line to shortest - for local
variables in Networking code.

This tool can help achieve that.

I don't think there is any need to cast to (void *) like this.

ether is assigned but otherwise unused in this function.

Flaged by W=1 builds using both gcc-13 and clang-17.

num_pkts is unsigned, so the condition above is always true.

Flagged by Coccinelle and Smatch.

(I think this code should be removed, but in any case I'll flag
the problems that I am aware of.)

This allocates the size of the port->tx_buffer pointer, rather than the
size of port->tx_buffer itself (4 or 8 bytes instead of 12 or 16 bytes).
So perhaps it should be (completely untested!):

port->tx_buffer = devm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(*port->tx_buffer),
GFP_KERNEL);

Flagged by Sparse.

Out of memory messages will be logged by the code.
So there is no need for the dev_err() call above.

local_mac_addr does not appear to be used in this patch.
If so, please drop it and add it when it is needed.

Noted. I had added debug prints between the {}, forgot take care the single
statement rule
while cleaning up. Not an excuse though.

Thanks for taking time to review the patches.

The primary intention of this series was to know if the RPMsg based approach
would be upstream friendly or not. But I would not like to use that as an excuse
for not fixing checks/warnings/errors reported by checkpatch completely.
Even though if its RFC, I will treat it as an actual upstream patch  and address the
checkpatch/smatch/sparse findings or atleast mention in the cover letter that the
findings have not been fully addressed.

I apologize for the inconvenience caused and be careful in future.

Understood. TBH, I am unsure of the value of this kind of review for an RFC
- I understand it is important to get the bigger picture questions out of
the way at this point.
