ethtool: cmis_cdb: Add a layer for supporting CDB commands
CDB (Command Data Block Message Communication) reads and writes are performed on memory map pages 9Fh-AFh according to the CMIS standard, section 8.20 of revision 5.2. Page 9Fh is used to specify the CDB command to be executed and also provides an area for a local payload (LPL). According to the CMIS standard, the firmware update process is done using a CDB commands sequence that will be implemented in the next patch. The kernel interface that will implement the firmware update using CDB command will include 2 layers that will be added under ethtool: * The upper layer that will be triggered from the module layer, is cmis_fw_update. * The lower one is cmis_cdb. In the future there might be more operations to implement using CDB commands. Therefore, the idea is to keep the CDB interface clean and the cmis_fw_update specific to the CDB commands handling it. These two layers will communicate using the API the consists of three functions: - struct ethtool_cmis_cdb * ethtool_cmis_cdb_init(struct net_device *dev, struct ethtool_module_fw_flash_params *params); - void ethtool_cmis_cdb_fini(struct ethtool_cmis_cdb *cdb); - int ethtool_cmis_cdb_execute_cmd(struct net_device *dev, struct ethtool_cmis_cdb_cmd_args *args); Add the CDB layer to support initializing, finishing and executing CDB commands: * The initialization process will include creating of an ethtool_cmis_cdb instance, querying the module CDB support, entering and validating the password from user space (CMD 0x0000) and querying the module features (CMD 0x0040). * The finishing API will simply free the ethtool_cmis_cdb instance. * The executing process will write the CDB command to EEPROM using set_module_eeprom_by_page() that was presented earlier, and will process the reply from EEPROM.
