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). Fix it by adding additional checks for !phydev->priv in kszphy_get_stats(), kszphy_get_strings() and kszphy_get_sset_count() Fixes: 2b2427d06426 ("phy: micrel: Add ethtool statistics counters") Signed-off-by: Grygorii Strashko <grygorii.stras...@ti.com> --- drivers/net/phy/micrel.c | 10 +++++++++- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/phy/micrel.c b/drivers/net/phy/micrel.c index 6742070..8dbc1be 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); } @@ -654,6 +653,9 @@ ksz9021_wr_mmd_phyreg(struct phy_device *phydev, int ptrad, int devnum, static int kszphy_get_sset_count(struct phy_device *phydev) { + if (!phydev->priv) + return -EOPNOTSUPP; + return ARRAY_SIZE(kszphy_hw_stats); } @@ -661,6 +663,9 @@ static void kszphy_get_strings(struct phy_device *phydev, u8 *data) { int i; + if (!phydev->priv) + return; + for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(kszphy_hw_stats); i++) { memcpy(data + i * ETH_GSTRING_LEN, kszphy_hw_stats[i].string, ETH_GSTRING_LEN); @@ -694,6 +699,9 @@ static void kszphy_get_stats(struct phy_device *phydev, { int i; + if (!phydev->priv) + return; + for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(kszphy_hw_stats); i++) data[i] = kszphy_get_stat(phydev, i); } -- 2.10.1
