UTOPIA(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual UTOPIA(4) NAME utopia -- Driver module for ATM PHY chips SYNOPSIS device utopia DESCRIPTION This module is used by all ATM drivers for cards that use PMC-Sierra S/Uni and IDT77105/IDT77155 chips to provide uniform functionality. The module implements status monitoring in either interrupt or polling mode, media option handling and application access to chip registers. The driver implements several sysctls that accessible under the hw.atm.XXX tree, where XXX is the name of the ATM interface: phy_regs When reading this sysctl an array of 8-bit unsigned integers is re- turned containing all accessible chip registers starting at register 0. A register can be written by writing three 8-bit unsigned inte- gers to the sysctl: the register number, the new value and a bit mask. This changes all bits in the register for which the corre- sponding bit in the mask is one to the bit values from value. Note, that not all registers may be writeable. phy_loopback allows to put the interface in one of several loopback modes. Not all modes and all combinations of modes are supported on all chips. The possible modes are: UTP_LOOP_NONE (0x00) No loopback, normal operation. UTP_LOOP_TIME (0x01) Timing source loopback. When this is set the transmitter's clock is derived from the receiver's clock. UTP_LOOP_DIAG (0x02) Diagnostic loopback. In this mode the receiver's input is con- nected to the transmitter's output. The receiver gets back ev- erything that is sent. The transmitter operates normally. UTP_LOOP_LINE (0x04) Serial line loopback. This connects the line receiver to the line transmitter. The chip transmits all cells back that it receives. The receiver operates normally. UTP_LOOP_PARAL (0x08) Parallel diagnostic loopback. This feeds back all transmitted cells into the receiver between the parallel/serial converters. The transmitter operates normally. UTP_LOOP_TWIST (0x10) Twisted pair diagnostic loopback. Connects the high speed re- ceive data to the high speed transmit data. All received data is sent back. The receiver operates normally. UTP_LOOP_PATH (0x20) Diagnostic path loopback. This connectes the receiver input to the transmitter output just between the path overhead processor and the byte mux. The transmitter operates normally. phy_type This is the detected type of the phy chip. Currently the following chips are supported: UTP_TYPE_UNKNOWN (0) The module could not determine the type of the PHY chip. UTP_TYPE_SUNI_LITE (1) PMC-5346 (S/Uni-Lite) UTP_TYPE_SUNI_ULTRA (2) PMC-5350 (S/Uni-Ultra) UTP_TYPE_SUNI_622 (3) PMC-5355 (S/Uni-622) UTP_TYPE_IDT77105 (4) IDT77105 (25.6MBit UTP interface) UTP_TYPE_IDT77155 (5) IDT77155 (155MBit interface) phy_name This is a string describing the type of the PHY chip. phy_stats Physical and some ATM layer statistics. These are the statistics usually provided by the chip. The data is a returned in the follow- ing structure: struct utopia_stats1 { uint32_t version; /* version of this struct */ uint32_t fill; uint64_t rx_sbip; /* rx section BIP errors */ uint64_t rx_lbip; /* rx line BIP errors */ uint64_t rx_lfebe; /* rx line far end block errors */ uint64_t rx_pbip; /* rx path BIP errors */ uint64_t rx_pfebe; /* rx path far end block errors */ uint64_t rx_cells; /* received cells */ uint64_t rx_corr; /* correctable cell errors */ uint64_t rx_uncorr; /* uncorrectable cell errors */ uint64_t rx_symerr; /* symbol errors */ uint64_t tx_cells; /* transmitted cells */ }; The current version is 1. The statistics are updated from the chip once a second. On overflow the counters wrap to zero. Note that not all counters are meaningful for all PHY chips. The statistics are cleared by writing an arbitrary new value (the value is ignored). The utopia module also interfaces with the ifmedia system. The module reports the current state of the carrier and will issue a warning message when the carrier state changes. While the physical media itself cannot be changed, several media options can: SDH If the PHY is a Sonet/SDH chip this flag switches the interface into SDH mode. If this option is not set (the default) the interface is in Sonet mode. noscramb If the PHY is a Sonet/SDH chip disable scrambling. This may be use- ful for debugging purposes. unassigned Normally the interface emits idle cells when there are no other cells to transmit. This changes the default cell type to unassigned cells. This may be needed for interworking with public networks. SEE ALSO en(4), fatm(4), hatm(4), patm(4), utopia(9) AUTHOR Harti Brandt <harti@freebsd.org>. FreeBSD May 8, 2003 FreeBSD
