The ice_adapter structure is used by the ice driver to connect multiple
physical functions of a device in software. It was introduced by
commit 0e2bddf9e5f9 ("ice: add ice_adapter for shared data across PFs on
the same NIC") and is primarily used for PTP support, as well as for
handling certain cross-PF synchronization.
The original design of ice_adapter used PCI address information to
determine which devices should be connected. This was extended to support
E825C devices by commit fdb7f54700b1 ("ice: Initial support for E825C
hardware in ice_adapter"), which used the device ID for E825C devices
instead of the PCI address.
Later, commit 0093cb194a75 ("ice: use DSN instead of PCI BDF for
ice_adapter index") replaced the use of Bus/Device/Function addressing with
use of the device serial number.
E825C devices may appear in "Dual NAC" configuration which has multiple
physical devices tied to the same clock source and which need to use the
same ice_adapter. Unfortunately, each "NAC" has its own NVM which has its
own unique Device Serial Number. Thus, use of the DSN for connecting
ice_adapter does not work properly. It "worked" in the pre-production
systems because the DSN was not initialized on the test NVMs and all the
NACs had the same zero'd serial number.
Since we cannot rely on the DSN, lets fall back to the logic in the
original E825C support which used the device ID. This is safe for E825C
only because of the embedded nature of the device. It isn't a discreet
adapter that can be plugged into an arbitrary system. All E825C devices on
a given system are connected to the same clock source and need to be
configured through the same PTP clock.
To make this separation clear, reserve bit 63 of the 64-bit index values as
a "fixed index" indicator. Always clear this bit when using the device
serial number as an index.
For E825C, use a fixed value defined as the 0x579C E825C backplane device
ID bitwise ORed with the fixed index indicator. This is slightly different
than the original logic of just using the device ID directly. Doing so
prevents a potential issue with systems where only one of the NACs is
connected with an external PHY over SGMII. In that case, one NAC would
have the E825C_SGMII device ID, but the other would not.
Separate the determination of the full 64-bit index from the 32-bit
reduction logic. Provide both ice_adapter_index() and a wrapping
ice_adapter_xa_index() which handles reducing the index to a long on 32-bit
systems. As before, cache the full index value in the adapter structure to
warn about collisions.
This fixes issues with E825C not initializing PTP on both NACs, due to
failure to connect the appropriate devices to the same ice_adapter.

It turns out that using the device serial number does not work for E825C
boards. I spoke with the team involved in the NVM image generation, and its
not feasible at this point to change the process for generating the NVMs
for E825C. We're stuck with the case that E825C Dual-NAC boards will have
independent DSN for each NAC.
As far as I can tell, the only suitable fallback is to rely on the embedded
nature of the E825C device. We know that all current systems with E825C
need to have their ice_adapter connected. There are no plans to build
platforms with multiple E825C devices. The E825C variant is not a discreet
board, so customers can't simply plug an extra in. Thus, this change
reverts back to using the device ID for E825C systems, instead of the
serial number.

This needs to be BIT_ULL :(
Tony, would it be possible for you to fix this up locally?
Yea, I can do that.
Thanks,
Tony
