Subject: [PATCH net 2/2] net: cpsw_new: Fix potential unregister of netdev that has not been registered yet
Date: Thu, 05 Feb 2026 10:47:03 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260205-cpsw-error-path-v1-2-6e58bae6b299@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260205-cpsw-error-path-v1-0-6e58bae6b299@gmail.com>
If an error occurs during register_netdev() for the first MAC in
cpsw_register_ports(), even though cpsw->slaves[0].ndev is set to NULL,
cpsw->slaves[1].ndev would remain unchanged. This could later cause
cpsw_unregister_ports() to attempt unregistering the second MAC.
To address this, add a check for ndev->reg_state before calling
unregister_netdev(). With this change, setting cpsw->slaves[i].ndev
to NULL becomes unnecessary and can be removed accordingly.
Fixes: ed3525eda4c4 ("net: ethernet: ti: introduce cpsw switchdev based driver part 1 - dual-emac")
