From 7bd3a7bc7b21a98a6ba3198a3ecb94a6a16716f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gabor Juhos Date: Fri, 8 Nov 2013 08:17:54 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ar71xx: ag71xx: fix a race involving netdev registration In particular, phy_connect before register_netdev. This is because register_netdev runs the netdev notifiers, which can race with the rest of the initialization in ag71xx_probe. In my case this manifested in two ways: 1) If ag71xx is compiled as a module and inserted after netifd has started, netifd is notified by register_netdev before the call to ag71xx_phy_connect. netifd tries to bring the interface up, which calls ag71xx_open, which in turn enters ag71xx_phy_start. This keys off ag->phy_dev (which is still NULL) and thinks this is a fixed-link board, and enters ag71xx_link_adjust. This looks at ag->speed which is not yet initialized and hits the BUG() in the switch (ag->speed) in ag71xx_link_adjust. This is the wrong code path for ag71xx_phy_start - my board has PHYs that need to be brought up with phy_start. Doing ag71xx_phy_connect before register_netdev ensures that ag->phy_dev is non-NULL before ag71xx_phy_start is ever called. 2) When ag71xx is built into the kernel, and netconsole is enabled, there is a gap in the initial burst of replayed printks right after the netdev comes up. My assumption is that netconsole is also triggered by a netdev notifier, and part of this printk burst happens before the call into ag71xx_phy_connect, so part of the burst is lost while the PHY comes up. This patch fixes the gap - all the printks before eth0 comes up are bursted in full when netconsole initializes. ag71xx_phy_connect_xxx no longer runs with a registered netdev, so the logging has been adjusted accordingly to avoid "unregistered net_device" or "eth%d" messages in dmesg.
