net: kernel BUG at drivers/net/phy/mdio_bus.c:165!

2008-12-17T08:24:13Z

kernel BUG at drivers/net/phy/mdio_bus.c:165! Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 How? mdiobus_alloc() sets bus->state = MDIOBUS_ALLOCATED. mdiobus_register() sets bus->state = MDIOBUS_REGISTERED but then can fail (mdiobus_scan()) returning an error to the caller. The caller aborts correctly with mdiobus_free() which does: if (bus->state == MDIOBUS_ALLOCATED) { kfree(bus); return; } BUG_ON(bus->state != MDIOBUS_UNREGISTERED); Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Halasa Signed-off-by: David S.

phylib: Add Vitesse VSC8221 SGMII PHY

2008-11-25T09:00:47Z

PHY is mostly compatible with the existing VSC8244 PHY. The init sequence is different and the interrupt mask lacks some bits present in the VSC8244. Rather than making a copy of the existing VSC234x config_intr function and change one constant, I modify it to select the interrupt mask based on which driver is calling it. This lets it be used by both drivers. Signed-off-by: Trent Piepho Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

phy: fix phy_id detection also for broken hardware.

2008-11-21T04:43:18Z

This patch fixes the case when the phy_ids is mostly Fs and in some case 0x0 due to broken hardware. Signed-off-by: Giuseppe Cavallaro Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

phylib: Fix auto-negotiation restart avoidance

2008-11-19T23:52:41Z

A previous patch, 51e2a3846eab18711f4eb59cd0a4c33054e2980a, made genphy_config_aneg() not restart aneg by calling genphy_restart_aneg() if the advertisement hadn't changed. But, genphy_restart_aneg() doesn't just restart aneg, it may also *enable* aneg or un-isolate the PHY from the MII (those functions are controlled by the same register). The code to avoid calling genphy_restart_aneg() didn't consider this. So, modify genphy_config_aneg() to also check if the PHY needs to have aneg enabled or be un-isolated before deciding not to restart aneg. This caused a problem with certain Davicom PHYs, as that driver isolates the PHY (why?) before calling genphy_config_aneg() and expects the PHY to be un-isolated by that function.

phy: fix phy address bug

2008-11-16T09:49:41Z

PHYID returns 0xffff and not 0xffffffff when not found and in some case(at91sam9263) 0x0. Maybe this patch could be useful. Signed-off-by: Giulio Benetti Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

phylib: fix premature freeing of struct mii_bus

2008-11-14T23:19:40Z

Commit 46abc02175b3c246dd5141d878f565a8725060c9 ("phylib: give mdio buses a device tree presence") added a call to device_unregister() in a situation where the caller did not intend for the device to be freed yet, but apart from just unregistering the device from the system, device_unregister() does an additional put_device() that is intended to free it. The right function to use in this situation is device_del(), which unregisters the device from the system like device_unregister() does, but without dropping the reference count an additional time.

NET: convert the phy_device file to use bus_find_device_by_name

2008-10-16T16:24:52Z

The driver core now has this helper function, so might as well use it instead of forcing the phy code to roll their own version. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
