When CONFIG_FIXED_PHY is in a loadable module, the fec driver cannot be
built-in any more:

x86_64-linux-ld: vmlinux.o: in function `fec_enet_mii_probe':
fec_main.c:(.text+0xc4f367): undefined reference to `fixed_phy_unregister'
x86_64-linux-ld: vmlinux.o: in function `fec_enet_close':
fec_main.c:(.text+0xc59591): undefined reference to `fixed_phy_unregister'
x86_64-linux-ld: vmlinux.o: in function `fec_enet_mii_probe.cold':

Select the fixed phy support on all targets to make this build
correctly, not just on coldfire.

Notat that Essentially the stub helpers in include/linux/phy_fixed.h
cannot be used correctly because of this build time dependency,
and we could just remove them to hit the build failure more often
when a driver uses them without the 'select FIXED_PHY'.

In case of coldfire/5272 a fixed phy is used, which so far is created
by platform code, using fixed_phy_add(). This function has a number of
problems, therefore create a potentially needed fixed phy here, using
fixed_phy_register_100fd.

Note 1: This includes a small functional change, as coldfire/5272
created a fixed phy in half-duplex mode. Likely this was by mistake,
because the fec MAC is 100FD-capable, and connection is to a switch.

Note 2: Usage of phy_find_next() makes use of the fact that dev_id can
only be 0 or 1.

Due to lack of hardware, this is compile-tested only.

MDIO_DEVRES is only set where PHYLIB/PHYLINK are set which
select MDIO_DEVRES. So we can remove this symbol.

Note: Due to circular module dependencies we can't simply
      make mdio_devres.c part of phylib.

ucc_geth is quite capable in terms of supported interfaces, and even

CONFIG_PAGE_POOL_STATS from the FEC driver symbol, making it impossible

A number of MDIO drivers make use of devm_mdiobus_alloc_size(). This
is only available when CONFIG_MDIO_DEVRES is enabled. Add missing
depends or selects, depending on if there are circular dependencies or
not. This avoids linker errors, especially for randconfig builds.

<title>net: fec: using page pool to manage RX buffers</title>

<id>95698ff6177b5f1f13f251da60e7348413046ae4</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch optimizes the RX buffer management by using the page
pool. The purpose for this change is to prepare for the following
XDP support. The current driver uses one frame per page for easy
management.

Added __maybe_unused attribute to the following functions to avoid
the compiling warning. Those functions will be removed by a separate
patch once this page pool solution is accepted.
 - fec_enet_new_rxbdp
 - fec_enet_copybreak

The following are the comparing result between page pool implementation
and the original implementation (non page pool).

 --- small packet (64 bytes) testing are almost the same
 --- no matter what the implementation is
 --- on both i.MX8 and i.MX6SX platforms.

This patch optimizes the RX buffer management by using the page
pool. The purpose for this change is to prepare for the following
XDP support. The current driver uses one frame per page for easy
management.

Added __maybe_unused attribute to the following functions to avoid
the compiling warning. Those functions will be removed by a separate
patch once this page pool solution is accepted.
 - fec_enet_new_rxbdp
 - fec_enet_copybreak

The following are the comparing result between page pool implementation
and the original implementation (non page pool).

 --- small packet (64 bytes) testing are almost the same
 --- no matter what the implementation is
 --- on both i.MX8 and i.MX6SX platforms.

<title>ethernet: fix PTP_1588_CLOCK dependencies</title>

The 'imply' keyword does not do what most people think it does, it only
politely asks Kconfig to turn on another symbol, but does not prevent
it from being disabled manually or built as a loadable module when the
user is built-in. In the ICE driver, the latter now causes a link failure:

aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.o: in function `ice_eth_ioctl':
ice_main.c:(.text+0x13b0): undefined reference to `ice_ptp_get_ts_config'
ice_main.c:(.text+0x13b0): relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_CALL26 against undefined symbol `ice_ptp_get_ts_config'
aarch64-linux-ld: ice_main.c:(.text+0x13bc): undefined reference to `ice_ptp_set_ts_config'
ice_main.c:(.text+0x13bc): relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_CALL26 against undefined symbol `ice_ptp_set_ts_config'
aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.o: in function `ice_prepare_for_reset':
ice_main.c:(.text+0x31fc): undefined reference to `ice_ptp_release'
ice_main.c:(.text+0x31fc): relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_CALL26 against undefined symbol `ice_ptp_release'
aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.o: in function `ice_rebuild':

This is a recurring problem in many drivers, and we have discussed
it several times befores, without reaching a consensus. I'm providing
a link to the previous email thread for reference, which discusses
some related problems.

To solve the dependency issue better than the 'imply' keyword, introduce a
separate Kconfig symbol "CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL" that any driver
can depend on if it is able to use PTP support when available, but works
fine without it. Whenever CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK=m, those drivers are
then prevented from being built-in, the same way as with a 'depends on
PTP_1588_CLOCK || !PTP_1588_CLOCK' dependency that does the same trick,
but that can be rather confusing when you first see it.

Since this should cover the dependencies correctly, the IS_REACHABLE()
hack in the header is no longer needed now, and can be turned back
into a normal IS_ENABLED() check. Any driver that gets the dependency
wrong will now cause a link time failure rather than being unable to use
PTP support when that is in a loadable module.

However, the two recently added ptp_get_vclocks_index() and
ptp_convert_timestamp() interfaces are only called from builtin code with
ethtool and socket timestamps, so keep the current behavior by stubbing
those out completely when PTP is in a loadable module. This should be
addressed properly in a follow-up.

As Richard suggested, we may want to actually turn PTP support into a
'bool' option later on, preventing it from being a loadable module
altogether, which would be one way to solve the problem with the ethtool
interface.
