Subject: [PATCH net 03/10] net: ethernet: actions: Move setting of netops to fix crash
Date: Thu, 8 Oct 2026 10:26:45 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008022656.3592191-4-mmyangfl@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008022656.3592191-1-mmyangfl@gmail.com>
owl_emac_probe() calls owl_emac_phy_init(), which connects the PHY,
before netdev->netdev_ops is assigned. phy_attach_direct() ->
phy_link_topo_add_phy() reads dev->netdev_ops through
netdev_need_ops_lock() since the commit in question, so probing crashes
with a NULL pointer dereference when CONFIG_NET_SHAPER is enabled.
Assign netdev_ops before the PHY attach, as was done for emac in commit
7c9f391ec89c ("net: emac: move setting of netops to fix crash").
Fixes: ded86da4bbb7 ("net: ethtool: relax ethnl_req_get_phydev() locking assertion")
