Wolfram reports that his R-Car H2-based Lager board can no longer be rebooted in v5.11-rc1, as it crashes with an imprecise external abort. The issue can be reproduced on other boards (e.g. Koelsch with R-Car M2-W) too, if CONFIG_IP_PNP is disabled: Unhandled fault: imprecise external abort (0x1406) at 0x00000000 pgd = (ptrval) [00000000] *pgd=422b6835, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000 Internal error: : 1406 [#1] ARM Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1105 Comm: init Tainted: G W 5.10.0-rc1-00402-ge2f016cf7751 #1048 Hardware name: Generic R-Car Gen2 (Flattened Device Tree) PC is at sh_mdio_ctrl+0x44/0x60 LR is at sh_mmd_ctrl+0x20/0x24 ...

Fix this by calling phy_disable_interrupts() only when the PHY has been started.

Alternatively, the device may have to be started explicitly first. --- drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c b/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c index 80c2e646c0934311..5985061b00128f8a 100644 --- a/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c +++ b/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c @@ -2962,7 +2962,8 @@ static void phy_shutdown(struct device *dev) { struct phy_device *phydev = to_phy_device(dev); - phy_disable_interrupts(phydev); + if (phy_is_started(phydev)) + phy_disable_interrupts(phydev); } /** -- 2.25.1
