Now the command: ethtool --phy-statistics eth0 will cause system crash with meassage "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000010" from:

As result, struct phy_device *phydev->priv pointer will not be initializes (null). This issue will affect also following phys: KSZ8795, KSZ886X, KSZ8873MLL, KSZ9031, KSZ9021, KSZ8061, KS8737 Fix it by: - adding .probe() = kszphy_probe() callback to KSZ9031, KSZ9021 phys. The kszphy_probe() can be re-used as it doesn't do any phy specific settings. - removing statistic callbacks from other phys (KSZ8795, KSZ886X, KSZ8873MLL, KSZ8061, KS8737) as they doesn't have corresponding statistic counters. Fixes: 2b2427d06426 ("phy: micrel: Add ethtool statistics counters") Signed-off-by: Grygorii Strashko <grygorii.stras...@ti.com> --- changes in v2: - probe callback added to KSZ9031, KSZ9021 - statistic callback removed from KSZ8795, KSZ886X, KSZ8873MLL, KSZ8061, KS8737 Link on v1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/4/10/1183 drivers/net/phy/micrel.c | 18 ++---------------- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/phy/micrel.c b/drivers/net/phy/micrel.c index 6742070..6f207e6 100644 --- a/drivers/net/phy/micrel.c +++ b/drivers/net/phy/micrel.c @@ -574,7 +574,6 @@ static int ksz9031_config_init(struct phy_device *phydev) MII_KSZ9031RN_TX_DATA_PAD_SKEW, 4, tx_data_skews, 4); } - return ksz9031_center_flp_timing(phydev); } @@ -798,9 +797,6 @@ static struct phy_driver ksphy_driver[] = { .read_status = genphy_read_status, .ack_interrupt = kszphy_ack_interrupt, .config_intr = kszphy_config_intr, - .get_sset_count = kszphy_get_sset_count, - .get_strings = kszphy_get_strings, - .get_stats = kszphy_get_stats, .suspend = genphy_suspend, .resume = genphy_resume, }, { @@ -940,9 +936,6 @@ static struct phy_driver ksphy_driver[] = { .read_status = genphy_read_status, .ack_interrupt = kszphy_ack_interrupt, .config_intr = kszphy_config_intr, - .get_sset_count = kszphy_get_sset_count, - .get_strings = kszphy_get_strings, - .get_stats = kszphy_get_stats, .suspend = genphy_suspend, .resume = genphy_resume, }, { @@ -952,6 +945,7 @@ static struct phy_driver ksphy_driver[] = { .features = PHY_GBIT_FEATURES, .flags = PHY_HAS_MAGICANEG | PHY_HAS_INTERRUPT, .driver_data = &ksz9021_type, + .probe = kszphy_probe, .config_init = ksz9021_config_init, .config_aneg = genphy_config_aneg, .read_status = genphy_read_status, @@ -971,6 +965,7 @@ static struct phy_driver ksphy_driver[] = { .features = PHY_GBIT_FEATURES, .flags = PHY_HAS_MAGICANEG | PHY_HAS_INTERRUPT, .driver_data = &ksz9021_type, + .probe = kszphy_probe, .config_init = ksz9031_config_init, .config_aneg = genphy_config_aneg, .read_status = ksz9031_read_status, @@ -989,9 +984,6 @@ static struct phy_driver ksphy_driver[] = { .config_init = kszphy_config_init, .config_aneg = ksz8873mll_config_aneg, .read_status = ksz8873mll_read_status, - .get_sset_count = kszphy_get_sset_count, - .get_strings = kszphy_get_strings, - .get_stats = kszphy_get_stats, .suspend = genphy_suspend, .resume = genphy_resume, }, { @@ -1003,9 +995,6 @@ static struct phy_driver ksphy_driver[] = { .config_init = kszphy_config_init, .config_aneg = genphy_config_aneg, .read_status = genphy_read_status, - .get_sset_count = kszphy_get_sset_count, - .get_strings = kszphy_get_strings, - .get_stats = kszphy_get_stats, .suspend = genphy_suspend, .resume = genphy_resume, }, { @@ -1017,9 +1006,6 @@ static struct phy_driver ksphy_driver[] = { .config_init = kszphy_config_init, .config_aneg = ksz8873mll_config_aneg, .read_status = ksz8873mll_read_status, - .get_sset_count = kszphy_get_sset_count, - .get_strings = kszphy_get_strings, - .get_stats = kszphy_get_stats, .suspend = genphy_suspend, .resume = genphy_resume, } }; -- 2.10.1
