config_static_serdes_map() is not called only when TLV EEPROM is
present. So CONFIG_CLEARFOG_SFP_25GB has no effect in that case. 
This

code should move to hws_board_topology_load() to avoid that.


Yeah, that's what I was trying to ask with the question below 
embedded in

patch 4.

"Note that this approach *does not* currently provide any 
mechanism
for EEPROM detected boards to have their SFP speed changed or 
switch
between PCIE/SATA signalling. I'm assuming that will be done 
based on
hardware detection, but confirmation/acceptance in review would 
be

appreciated so it can be revisited if needed.

After sending the series and thinking about it more, I didn't see any 
other
mechanism by which the configuration would be changed. The question 
was really
to confirm what I had inferred from code, namely that Pro/Base boards 
even
with EEPROM would still have to have a U-Boot built with custom 
options in
order to change the PCIe/SATA or SFP options. I would like to confirm 
with you
that is desired and expected even in the cases of EEPROM supporting 
units. If
that's the case, I'll rework the location of setting, along with 
updating the
help text for those options. Pending your confirmation, I plan to get 
rid of
the separate config_static_serdes_map function and fold it back in, 
with the
SATA and SFP options coming before the board runtime detection 
configuration.


My thinking is that EEPROM TLV is only meant to describe the hardware 
as
manufactured, and never change. SATA (read mSATA) and SFP are user 
setup
that TLV can't cover. So I think that SATA and SFP build time 
selection

should apply regardless of TLV.

In theory it could have been even better to store SATA/SFP selection 
in
environment variables. But that is not currently possible, since 
serdes

configuration takes place at SPL phase where the environment is not
accessible.

baruch


Yeah, that makes sense and as I thought further on it is the only
logical option based at least on what's currently exposed for runtime
detction. I'll send out the updated series with this change and a few
code style cleanups after completing the SATA testing, hopefully later
today.

Any other items pending for this series? I think it's in good shape,
pending any further thoughts or discussion on the Pro DT by default
change.

Joel


While SATA testing is pending, I'm including the updated resulting 
board/solidrun/clearfog/clearfog.c snippet (without patch separations) 
for review on the updated approach. I recognize that the final "Clearfog 
Base" and static IS_ENABLED check take the same path and could be 
combined, but I prefer to keep them separate to highlight and 
distinguish between the runtime detection and fallback cases.
