Subject: [RFC PATCH] smsc911x: Ignore error return from device_get_phy_mode()
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2015 11:49:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1440614948-27428-1-git-send-email-linux@roeck-us.net> (raw)
Commit 62ee783bf1f8 ("smsc911x: Fix crash seen if neither ACPI nor OF is
configured or used") introduces an error check for the return value from
device_get_phy_mode() and bails out if there is an error. Unfortunately,
there are configurations where no phy is configured. Those configurations
now fail.
To fix the problem, assign a phy interface mode of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA
if device_get_phy_mode() returns an error.
Check the return value from device_property_read_u32() to see if there
is a suitable firmware interface to read the data, and abort if not.
The function should return -ENXIO in that case; however, it returns
-ENODATA. Check for both.
Fixes: 62ee783bf1f8 ("smsc911x: Fix crash seen if neither ACPI nor OF is configured or used")

Needs testing. RFC because I am not sure if the -ENODATA check is acceptable.
