[PATCH 5.4 16/90] net: dsa: Do not leave DSA master with NULL netdev_ops

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 050569fc8384c8056bacefcc246bcb2dfe574936 ]

When ndo_get_phys_port_name() for the CPU port was added we introduced
an early check for when the DSA master network device in
dsa_master_ndo_setup() already implements ndo_get_phys_port_name(). When
we perform the teardown operation in dsa_master_ndo_teardown() we would
not be checking that cpu_dp->orig_ndo_ops was successfully allocated and
non-NULL initialized.

With network device drivers such as virtio_net, this leads to a NPD as
soon as the DSA switch hanging off of it gets torn down because we are
now assigning the virtio_net device's netdev_ops a NULL pointer.

Fixes: da7b9e9b00d4 ("net: dsa: Add ndo_get_phys_port_name() for CPU port")
