The new generation Loongson LS2K2000 SoC and LS7A2000 chipset are equipped with the network controllers called Loongson GNET. It's the single and multi DMA-channels Loongson GMAC but with a PHY attached. Here is the summary of the DW GMAC features the controller has: DW GMAC IP-core: v3.73a Speeds: 10/100/1000Mbps Duplex: Full (both versions), Half (LS2K2000 GNET only) DMA-descriptors type: enhanced L3/L4 filters availability: Y VLAN hash table filter: Y PHY-interface: GMII (PHY is integrated into the chips) Remote Wake-up support: Y Mac Management Counters (MMC): Y Number of additional MAC addresses: 5 MAC Hash-based filter: Y Hash Table Size: 256 AV feature: Y (LS2K2000 GNET only) DMA channels: 8 (LS2K2000 GNET), 1 (LS7A2000 GNET) Let's update the Loongson DWMAC driver to supporting the new Loongson GNET controller. The change is mainly trivial: the driver shall be bound to the PCIe device with DID 0x7a13, and the device-specific setup() method shall be called for it. The only peculiarity concerns the integrated PHY speed change procedure. The PHY has a weird problem with switching from the low speeds to 1000Mbps mode. The speedup procedure requires the PHY-link re-negotiation. So the suggested change provide the device-specific fix_mac_speed() method to overcome the problem.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
