This applies the same handling of fixed-link phys to the designware driver as Rouven Czerwinski already did in commit `6269556397ed646e9fdcdefa855944fcff0f3608 (net: eqos: let phy_resume handle fixed link phys)`. Without this change the driver segfaults on the socfpga platform if there is no mdio bus attached, as it is the case in a fixed-link setup: unable to handle NULL pointer dereference at address 0x00000140 pc : [<1fd026ae>] lr : [<1fd026a7>] sp : 1fff7e50 ip : 0be53f7a fp : 00000000 r10: 0ffb6288 r9 : ff703000 r8 : 0fea5af0 r7 : 00000140 r6 : 00000000 r5 : 00000001 r4 : 00000140 r3 : 1fd026a7 r2 : 1fe462c8 r1 : 07e80000 r0 : 00000140 Flags: Nzcv IRQs off FIQs off Mode SVC_32 [<1fd026ae>] (__slice_acquire+0x12/0x40) from [<1fd1cec7>] (mdiobus_read+0x13/0x2e) [<1fd1cec7>] (mdiobus_read+0x13/0x2e) from [<1fd1d637>] (dwc_ether_open+0xaf/0x378) [<1fd1d637>] (dwc_ether_open+0xaf/0x378) from [<1fd4f543>] (eth_open+0x2b/0x40) [<1fd4f543>] (eth_open+0x2b/0x40) from [<1fd4f5c7>] (eth_open_all+0x47/0x5c) [<1fd4f5c7>] (eth_open_all+0x47/0x5c) from [<1fd019a9>] (run_init+0xfd/0x264) [<1fd019a9>] (run_init+0xfd/0x264) from [<1fd01b5d>] (start_barebox+0x4d/0xc8) [<1fd01b5d>] (start_barebox+0x4d/0xc8) from [<1fd62c89>] (barebox_non_pbl_start+0xc1/0xe8) [<1fd62c89>] (barebox_non_pbl_start+0xc1/0xe8) from [<1fd00005>] (__bare_init_start+0x1/0xc) Signed-off-by: Stefan Kerkmann <s.kerkmann@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- This applies the same handling of fixed-link phys to the designware driver as Rouven Czerwinski already did in commit `6269556397ed646e9fdcdefa855944fcff0f3608 (net: eqos: let phy_resume handle fixed link phys)`. --- drivers/net/designware.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/net/designware.c b/drivers/net/designware.c index 66f28b429d..706987675c 100644 --- a/drivers/net/designware.c +++ b/drivers/net/designware.c @@ -181,6 +181,10 @@ static int phy_resume(struct phy_device *phydev) { int bmcr; + // Bus will be NULL if a fixed-link is used. + if (!phydev->bus) + return 0; + bmcr = phy_read(phydev, MII_BMCR); if (bmcr < 0) return bmcr; --- base-commit: 5a2866973d386ffe9b9f5c429a0cbcd58bcef69c change-id: 20241010-fix-designware-fixed-link-5b40650ae5fe Best regards, -- Stefan Kerkmann <s.kerkmann@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
