The command 'brctl addbr br0 eth0' brings the kernel oops if the eth0 has PHY, but the phydev is NULL (for ex., ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 was not issued firstly) Call Trace: [C02CFBD0] [7FFFFFFF] 0x7fffffff (unreliable) [C02CFBE0] [C0109634] dev_ethtool+0x1b0/0xfac [C02CFCD0] [C0155EF0] port_cost+0x5c/0x130 [C02CFD40] [C01561FC] br_add_if+0x17c/0x308 [C02CFD70] [C01569E0] add_del_if+0x70/0xa0 [C02CFD90] [C0156A58] br_dev_ioctl+0x48/0x9fc [C02CFE10] [C0106FCC] dev_ifsioc+0x144/0x3ac [C02CFE30] [C01080D8] dev_ioctl+0x3b8/0x4c8 [C02CFEB0] [C00F9BC0] sock_ioctl+0x78/0x260 [C02CFED0] [C006889C] do_ioctl+0x38/0x84 [C02CFEE0] [C006896C] vfs_ioctl+0x84/0x3d8 [C02CFF10] [C0068D00] sys_ioctl+0x40/0x74 [C02CFF40] [C000EF48] ret_from_syscall+0x0/0x38 The following patch fixes the problem.
