Subject: [PATCH net] sfp: fix oops with ethtool -m
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2018 16:48:53 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1g2IFB-0000LN-AU@rmk-PC.armlinux.org.uk> (raw)
If a network interface is created prior to the SFP socket being
available, ethtool can request module information. This unfortunately
leads to an oops:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000008
pgd = (ptrval)
[00000008] *pgd=7c400831, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000
Internal error: Oops: 17 [#1] SMP ARM
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0 PID: 1480 Comm: ethtool Not tainted 4.19.0-rc3 #138
Hardware name: Broadcom Northstar Plus SoC
PC is at sfp_get_module_info+0x8/0x10
LR is at dev_ethtool+0x218c/0x2afc
Fix this by not filling in the network device's SFP bus pointer until
SFP is fully bound, thereby avoiding the core calling into the SFP bus
code.
Fixes: ce0aa27ff3f6 ("sfp: add sfp-bus to bridge between network devices and sfp cages")
