net: ftgmac100: fix potential NULL pointer access in ftgmac100_phy_disconnect

2025-08-20T16:30:13Z

commit e88fbc30dda1cb7438515303704ceddb3ade4ecd upstream. After the call to phy_disconnect() netdev->phydev is reset to NULL. So fixed_phy_unregister() would be called with a NULL pointer as argument. Therefore cache the phy_device before this call.

net: ftgmac100: select FIXED_PHY

2025-06-27T10:11:21Z

commit ae409629e022fbebbc6d31a1bfeccdbbeee20fd6 upstream. Depending on e.g. DT configuration this driver uses a fixed link. So we shouldn't rely on the user to enable FIXED_PHY, select it in Kconfig instead. We may end up with a non-functional driver otherwise.

net: ftgmac100: fixed not check status from fixed phy

2024-10-10T00:56:55Z

Add error handling from calling fixed_phy_register. It may return some error, therefore, need to check the status. And fixed_phy_register needs to bind a device node for mdio. Add the mac device node for fixed_phy_register function. This is a reference to this function, of_phy_register_fixed_link().

net: ftgmac100: Enable TX interrupt to avoid TX timeout

2024-09-10T10:50:07Z

Currently, the driver only enables RX interrupt to handle RX packets and TX resources. Sometimes there is not RX traffic, so the TX resource needs to wait for RX interrupt to free. This situation will toggle the TX timeout watchdog when the MAC TX ring has no more resources to transmit packets. Therefore, enable TX interrupt to release TX resources at any time. When I am verifying iperf3 over UDP, the network hangs. Like the log below. root# iperf3 -c 192.168.100.100 -i1 -t10 -u -b0 Connecting to host 192.168.100.100, port 5201 [ 4] local 192.168.100.101 port 35773 connected to 192.168.100.100 port 5201 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth Total Datagrams [ 4] 0.00-20.42 sec 160 KBytes 64.2 Kbits/sec 20 [ 4] 20.42-20.42 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0 [ 4] 20.42-20.42 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0 [ 4] 20.42-20.42 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0 [ 4] 20.42-20.42 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0 [ 4] 20.42-20.42 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0 [ 4] 20.42-20.42 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0 [ 4] 20.42-20.42 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0 [ 4] 20.42-20.42 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0 [ 4] 20.42-20.42 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth Jitter Lost/Total Datagrams [ 4] 0.00-20.42 sec 160 KBytes 64.2 Kbits/sec 0.000 ms 0/20 (0%) [ 4] Sent 20 datagrams iperf3: error - the server has terminated The network topology is FTGMAC connects directly to a PC.

net: ftgmac100: Get link speed and duplex for NC-SI

2024-08-29T00:15:23Z

The ethtool of this driver uses the phy API of ethtool to get the link information from PHY driver. Because the NC-SI is forced on 100Mbps and full duplex, the driver connect a fixed-link phy driver for NC-SI. The ethtool will get the link information from the fixed-link phy driver.

net: annotate writes on dev->mtu from ndo_change_mtu()

2024-05-07T23:19:14Z

Simon reported that ndo_change_mtu() methods were never updated to use WRITE_ONCE(dev->mtu, new_mtu) as hinted in commit 501a90c94510 ("inet: protect against too small mtu values.") We read dev->mtu without holding RTNL in many places, with READ_ONCE() annotations. It is time to take care of ndo_change_mtu() methods to use corresponding WRITE_ONCE() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Reported-by: Simon Horman Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240505144608.GB67882@kernel.org/ Reviewed-by: Jacob Keller Reviewed-by: Sabrina Dubroca Reviewed-by: Simon Horman Acked-by: Shannon Nelson Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240506102812.3025432-1-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

net: ethernet: faraday: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

2023-09-20T08:06:38Z

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers are converted, .remove_new() is renamed to .remove(). Trivially convert these drivers from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
