Subject: [PATCH v2 net] rocker: handle non-bridge master change
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2015 09:31:40 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1427157100-18828-1-git-send-email-simon.horman@netronome.com> (raw)

Master change notifications may occur other than when joining or
leaving a bridge, for example when being added to or removed from
a bond or Open vSwitch.

Previously in those cases rocker_port_bridge_leave() was called
which results in a null-pointer dereference as rocker_port->bridge_dev
is NULL because there is no bridge device.

This patch makes provision for doing nothing in such cases.

Fixes: 6c7079450071f ("rocker: implement L2 bridge offloading")
Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us>

---
* Lightly tested to the extent that a null-pointer dereference no longer
  occurs

v2
* Use rocker_port_is_bridged()
* Added Acks
