[PATCH net-next v2 0/4] of_get_mac_address ERR_PTR fixes

[PATCH net-next v2 0/4] of_get_mac_address ERR_PTR fixes

[Petr Štetiar]

Hi,

this patch series is an attempt to fix the mess, I've somehow managed to
introduce.

First patch in this series is defacto v5 of the previous 05/10 patch in the
series, but since the v4 of this 05/10 patch wasn't picked up by the
patchwork for some unknown reason, this patch wasn't applied with the other
9 patches in the series, so I'm resending it as a separate patch of this
fixup series again.

Second patch is a result of this rebase against net-next tree, where I was
checking again all current users of of_get_mac_address and found out, that
there's new one in DSA, so I've converted this user to the new ERR_PTR
encoded error value as well.

Third patch which was sent as v5 wasn't considered for merge, but I still
think, that we need to check for possible NULL value, thus current IS_ERR
check isn't sufficient and we need to use IS_ERR_OR_NULL instead.

Fourth patch fixes warning reported by kbuild test robot.

Cheers,

Petr

[PATCH net-next v2 1/4] net: ethernet: support of_get_mac_address new ERR_PTR error

[Petr Štetiar]

There was NVMEM support added to of_get_mac_address, so it could now
return ERR_PTR encoded error values, so we need to adjust all current
users of of_get_mac_address to this new fact.

While at it, remove superfluous is_valid_ether_addr as the MAC address
returned from of_get_mac_address is always valid and checked by
is_valid_ether_addr anyway.

Fixes: d01f449c008a ("of_net: add NVMEM support to of_get_mac_address")

 This is defacto v5 of the previous 05/10 patch in the series, but since the
 v4 of this 05/10 patch wasn't picked up by the patchwork for some unknown
 reason, this patch wasn't applied with the other 9 patches in the series, so
 I'm resending it as a separate patch of this fixup series.

 Changes since v1:

  * added Fixes: tag

 Previous changelog (Patch 05/10):

  Changes since v3:

   * IS_ERR_OR_NULL -> IS_ERR

  Changes since v4:

   * I've just blindly replaced IS_ERR_OR_NULL with IS_ERR, but I've just
     realized, that in some cases we still need to check for NULL, so I've
     corrected it in following drivers/files:

      - broadcom/bgmac-bcma.c
      - marvell/pxa168_eth.c
      - samsung/sxgbe/sxgbe_platform.c
      - stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_main.c
      - wiznet/w5100.c
      - ethernet/eth.c

RE: [EXT] [PATCH net-next v2 1/4] net: ethernet: support of_get_mac_address new ERR_PTR error

[Andy Duan]

From: Petr Štetiar <ynezz@true.cz> Sent: Tuesday, May 7, 2019 5:25 AM
> There was NVMEM support added to of_get_mac_address, so it could now

I feel sort of ridiculous asking this over and over...  Maybe your spam
filter is eating my emails?

This bug was introduced in https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1094916/
"[v4,01/10] of_net: add NVMEM support to of_get_mac_address" but it
looks like no one applied it.

You're acting as if it *was* applied but you refuse to answer my
question who applied it and which to which tree so I can figure out what
went wrong.

I only see comments from last Friday that it shouldn't be applied...  I
also told you on Friday in a different thread that that patch shouldn't
be applied.  Breaking git bisect is a bug, and we never do that.  I'm
just very confused right now...  What I'm trying to do is figure out in
my head how this process failed so we can do better next time.

regards,
dan carpenter

Just to resend this, so that it hopefully does _not_ get stuck in a spam
filter.

nope, I've read your email, that's the only reason I've sent out this v2 which
added Fixes: tag you've suggested in your email.

this patch series is against net-next, and I've added Fixes: tag as you've
requested in this v2 series[1] (which expands to commit[2] in net-next):

 Fixes: d01f449c008a ("of_net: add NVMEM support to of_get_mac_address")

> You're acting as if it *was* applied but you refuse to answer my

it was applied[2] to David's net-next tree, but unfortunately partialy, just 9
patches out of 10, as the patch 05/10 in that series (which is patch 1/4 in
this series) never reached netdev mailing list and patchwork, probably because
of some netdev mailing list software and/or patchwork hiccup, very likely due
to the long list of recipients in that patch and as I'm not subscribed to the
netdev (due to the high traffic) I'm probably treaten somehow differently.

So to sum it up, I've simply thought, that it was enough to send out v2 with
that Fixes: tag and considered it done.

> I only see comments from last Friday that it shouldn't be applied...

I'm sorry, but which comments do you mean exactly? Those about the
`nvmem-mac-address` DT (sysfs) entry? If that is the case, from my point of
view, I've provided reasonable arguments and nobody told me, that I'm wrong
with my reasoning or NACKed this explicitly, so David probably considered my
arguments good enough and merged it as it is? I don't have any other
explanation.

> I also told you on Friday in a different thread that that patch shouldn't be

Yes, and I agree with you, but I've simply thought, that if any of the
maintainers who previously reviewed the series didn't objected about this,
that they're possibly going to squash those patches by themselves during the
merging process or that they're going to tell me to do so and I would address
this in the latest interation of the patchset before merge.

Anyway, is there any possibility how to fix that now?

I'm just occasional contributor, so I'm sorry, but I can hardly provide any
input.

For the record, I've following in my ~/.gitconfig:

 [sendemail.linux]
    tocmd ="`pwd`/scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats --nol"
    cccmd ="`pwd`/scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats --nom"

and I've sent the patches with the following command:

 git send-email \
	--to netdev@vger.kernel.org \
	--to 'David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>' \
	--cc 'Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch>' \
	--cc 'Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com>' \

	--identity linux tmp/nvmem-fix-v2/000*

which resulted just in the following 4 bounces:

 * ks.giri@samsung.com (no such recipient)
 * vipul.pandya@samsung.com (no such recipient)

 Your mail to 'linux-arm-kernel' with the subject

    [PATCH net-next v2 1/4] net: ethernet: support of_get_mac_address new ERR_PTR error

 Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.  The reason
 it is being held:

    Too many recipients to the message

So maybe netdev have similar moderation stuff enabled, but doesn't send out
this notices back? I've "fixed" the issue with the following workaround:

 git send-email \
 	--to netdev@vger.kernel.org \
	--in-reply-to '<1557177887-30446-1-git-send-email-ynezz@true.cz>' \
	tmp/nvmem-fix-v2/0001-net-ethernet-support-of_get_mac_address-new-ERR_PTR-.patch

That is, just using netdev as the sole recipient and then the patch has
appeared in the patchwork and in the mailing list archive as well.

Oh crap.  You did add a Fixes tag.  My bad.

I should have been more clear/pro-active on Friday and we could have
avoided this...  Next time.

I didn't receive the patch through email, but patchwork does have it:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1096054/

This fixes the crash ("Unable to handle kernel paging request atvirtual
address fffffffe") I'm seeing with sh_eth on r8a7791/koelsch, so
