From 8098bd69bc4e925070313b1b95d03510f4f24738 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Eggers Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2020 10:39:42 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: microchip: fix race condition Between queuing the delayed work and finishing the setup of the dsa ports, the process may sleep in request_module() (via phy_device_create()) and the queued work may be executed prior to the switch net devices being registered. In ksz_mib_read_work(), a NULL dereference will happen within netof_carrier_ok(dp->slave). Not queuing the delayed work in ksz_init_mib_timer() makes things even worse because the work will now be queued for immediate execution (instead of 2000 ms) in ksz_mac_link_down() via dsa_port_link_register_of().

Do not queue (only initialize) delayed work in ksz_init_mib_timer(). 2. Only queue delayed work in ksz_mac_link_down() if init is completed. 3. Queue work once in ksz_switch_register(), after dsa_register_switch() has completed.
