DESCRIPTION

     This module is used by all ATM drivers for cards that use a number of
     known PHY chips to provide uniform functionality.  The module implements
     status monitoring in either interrupt or polling mode, media option
     handling and application access to PHY registers.

     To use this interface, a driver must implement two functions for reading
     and writing PHY registers, and initialize the following structure with
     pointers to these functions:

           struct utopia_methods {
                   int     (*readregs)(struct ifatm *, u_int reg,
                               uint8_t *val, u_int *n);
                   int     (*writereg)(struct ifatm *, u_int reg,
                               u_int mask, u_int val);
           };

     The readregs() function should read PHY registers starting at register
     reg.  The maximum number of registers to read is given by the integer
     pointed to by n.  The function should either return 0 on success, or an
     error code.  In the first case, *n should be set to the actual number of
     registers read.  The writereg() function should write one register.  It
     must change all bits for which the corresponding bit in mask is 1 to the
     value of the corresponding bit in val.  It returns either 0 on success,
     or an error code.

     The ATM driver’s private state block (softc) must begin with a struct
     ifatm.

     The struct utopia holds the current state of the PHY chip and contains
     the following fields:

           struct utopia {
                   struct ifatm    *ifatm;         /* driver data */
                   struct ifmedia  *media;         /* driver supplied */
                   struct mtx      *lock;          /* driver supplied */
                   const struct utopia_methods *methods;
                   LIST_ENTRY(utopia) link;        /* list of these structures */
                   u_int           flags;          /* flags set by the driver */
                   u_int           state;          /* current state */
                   u_int           carrier;        /* carrier state */
                   u_int           loopback;       /* loopback mode */
                   const struct utopia_chip *chip; /* chip operations */
                   struct utopia_stats1 stats;     /* statistics */
           };
     The public accessible fields have the following functions:

     ifatm   Pointer to the driver’s private data (softc).

     media   Pointer to the driver’s media structure.

     lock    Pointer to a mutex provided by the driver.  This mutex is used to
             synchronize with the kernel thread that handles device polling.
             It is locked in several places:

                   1.   In utopia_detach() the mutex is locked to sleep and
                        wait for the kernel thread to remove the struct utopia
                        from the list of all utopia devices.  Before returning
                        to the caller the mutex is unlocked.

                   2.   In the utopia kernel thread the mutex is locked, and
                        the utopia_carrier_update() function is called with
                        this mutex locked.  This will result in the driver’s
                        readregs() function being called with the mutex
                        locked.

                   3.   In the sysctl handlers the mutex will be locked before
                        calling into the driver’s readreg() or writereg()
                        functions.

     flags   Flags set by either the driver or the utopia module.  The
             following flags are defined:

             UTP_FL_NORESET
                     If this flag is set, the module will not try to write the
                     SUNI master reset register.  (Set by the driver.)

             UTP_FL_POLL_CARRIER
                     If this flag is set, the module will periodically poll
                     the carrier state (as opposed to interrupt driven carrier
                     state changes).  (Set by the driver.)

     state   Flags describing the current state of the PHY chip.  These are
             managed by the module:

             UTP_ST_ACTIVE
                     The driver is active and the PHY registers can be
                     accessed.  This is set by calling utopia_start(), which
                     should be called either in the attach routine of the
                     driver or in the network interface initialisation routine
                     (depending on whether the registers are accessible all
                     the time or only when the interface is up).

             UTP_ST_SDH
                     Interface is in SDH mode as opposed to SONET mode.

             UTP_ST_UNASS
                     Interface is producing unassigned cells instead of idle
                     cells.

             UTP_ST_NOSCRAMB
                     Cell scrambling is switched off.

             UTP_ST_DETACH
                     (Internal use.)  Interface is currently detaching.

             UTP_ST_ATTACHED
                     The attach routine has been run successfully.

     carrier
             The carrier state of the interface.  This field can have one of
             three values:

             UTP_CARR_UNKNOWN
                     Carrier state is still unknown.

             UTP_CARR_OK
                     Carrier has been detected.

             UTP_CARR_LOST
                     Carrier has been lost.

     loopback
             This is the current loopback mode of the interface.  Note that
             not all chips support all loopback modes.  Refer to the chip
             documentation.  The following modes may be supported:

             UTP_LOOP_NONE
                     No loopback, normal operation.

             UTP_LOOP_TIME
                     Timing source loopback.  The transmitter clock is driven
                     by the receive clock.

             UTP_LOOP_DIAG
                     Diagnostic loopback.

             UTP_LOOP_LINE
                     Serial line loopback.

             UTP_LOOP_PARAL
                     Parallel diagnostic loopback.

             UTP_LOOP_TWIST
                     Twisted pair diagnostic loopback.

             UTP_LOOP_PATH
                     Diagnostic path loopback.

     chip    This points to a function vector for chip specific functions.
             Two fields in this vector are publicly available:

             type    This is the type of the detected PHY chip.  One of:

                     UTP_TYPE_UNKNOWN (0)
                     UTP_TYPE_SUNI_LITE (1)
                     UTP_TYPE_SUNI_ULTRA (2)
                     UTP_TYPE_SUNI_622 (3)
                     UTP_TYPE_IDT77105 (4)

             name    This is a string with the name of the PHY chip.

     The following functions are used by the driver during attach/detach
     and/or initialisation/stopping the interface:

     utopia_attach()
             Attach the PHY chip.  This is called with a preallocated struct
             utopia (which may be part of the driver’s softc).  The module
             initializes all fields of the utopia state and the media field.
             User settable flags should be set after the call to
             utopia_attach().  This function may fail due to the inability to
             install the sysctl handlers.  In this case it will return -1.  On
             success, 0 is returned and the UTP_ST_ATTACHED flag is set.

     utopia_detach()
             Remove the utopia attachment from the system.  This cancels all
             outstanding polling timeouts.

     utopia_start()
             Start operation of that PHY.  This should be called at a time
             when the PHY registers are known to be accessible.  This may be
             either in the driver’s attach function or when the interface is
             set running.

     utopia_stop()
             Stop operation of the PHY attachment.  This may be called either
             in the detach function of the driver or when the interface is
             brought down.

     utopia_init_media()
             This must be called if the media field in the ATM MIB was
             changed.  The function makes sure, that the ifmedia fields
             contain the same information as the ATM MIB.

     utopia_reset_media()
             This may be called to remove all media information from the
             ifmedia field.

     The following functions can be used to modify the PHY state while the
     interface is running:

     utopia_reset()
             Reset the operational parameters to the default state (SONET,
             idle cells, scrambling enabled).  Returns 0 on success, an error
             code otherwise, leaving the state undefined.

     utopia_set_sdh()
             If the argument is zero the chip is switched to Sonet mode, if it
             is non-zero the chip is switched to SDH mode.  Returns 0 on
             success, an error code otherwise, leaving the previous state.

     utopia_set_unass()
             If the argument is zero the chip is switched to produce idle
             cells, if it is non-zero the chip is switched to produce
             unassigned cells.  Returns 0 on success, an error code otherwise,
             leaving the previous state.

     utopia_set_noscramb()
             If the argument is zero enables scrambling, if it is non-zero
             disables scrambling.  Returns 0 on success, an error code
             otherwise, leaving the previous state.

     utopia_update_carrier()
             Check the carrier state and update the carrier field in the state
             structure.  This will generate a message to the Netgraph stack if
             the carrier state changes.  For chips that are polled this is
             called automatically, for interrupt driven attachments this must
             be called on interrupts from the PHY chip.

     utopia_set_loopback()
             Set the loopback mode of the chip.  Returns 0 on success, an
             error code otherwise, leaving the previous state.

     utopia_intr()
             Called when an interrupt from the PHY chip is detected.  This
             resets the interrupt state by reading all registers and, if the
             interrupt was from the RSOP, checks the carrier state.

     utopia_update_stats()
             Update the statistics with counters read from the chip.
