dpll: add fractional frequency offset to pin-parent-device
Add both fractional-frequency-offset (PPM) and fractional-frequency-offset-ppt (PPT) attributes to the pin-parent-device nested attribute set, alongside the existing top-level pin attributes. Both carry the same measurement at different precisions. Introduce enum dpll_ffo_type and struct dpll_ffo_param to distinguish FFO contexts: DPLL_FFO_PORT_RXTX_RATE for the RX vs TX symbol rate offset reported at the top level, and DPLL_FFO_PIN_DEVICE for the pin vs parent DPLL offset reported in the pin-parent-device nest. Add a supported_ffo bitmask to struct dpll_pin_ops so drivers declare which FFO types they support. The core only calls ffo_get for types the driver has opted into, eliminating the need for per-driver NULL pointer guards. Validate at pin registration time that supported_ffo is not set without an ffo_get callback. Update mlx5 (DPLL_FFO_PORT_RXTX_RATE) and zl3073x (DPLL_FFO_PORT_RXTX_RATE) drivers to use the new API. Add documentation for both FFO types to dpll.rst. Changes v3 -> v4: - Replace dpll=NULL overloading with enum dpll_ffo_type and struct dpll_ffo_param (Jakub Kicinski) - Add supported_ffo opt-in bitmask in dpll_pin_ops for fail-close driver validation (Jakub Kicinski) - Add WARN_ON in dpll_pin_register for supported_ffo without ffo_get callback Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260511155816.99936-2-ivecera@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
