[PATCH v2 0/9] Phy, mdiobus, and netdev struct device fixes

From: Russell King - ARM Linux <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-22 16:17:28

This is the second version of the series, with the comments David had
on the first patch fixed up.  Original series description with updated
diffstat below.

While looking at the DSA code, I noticed we have a
of_find_net_device_by_node(), and it looks like users of that are
similarly buggy - it looks like net/dsa/dsa.c is the only user.  Fix
that too.

Hi,

While looking at the phy code, I identified a number of weaknesses
where refcounting on device structures was being leaked, where
modules could be removed while in-use, and where the fixed-phy could
end up having unintended consequences caused by incorrect calls to
fixed_phy_update_state().

This patch series resolves those issues, some of which were discovered
with testing on an Armada 388 board.  Not all patches are fully tested,
particularly the one which touches several network drivers.

When resolving the struct device refcounting problems, several different
solutions were considered before settling on the implementation here -
one of the considerations was to avoid touching many network drivers.
The solution here is:

	phy_attach*() - takes a refcount
	phy_detach*() - drops the phy_attach refcount

Provided drivers always attach and detach their phys, which they should
already be doing, this should change nothing, even if they leak a refcount.

	of_phy_find_device() and of_* functions which use that take
	a refcount.  Arrange for this refcount to be dropped once
	the phy is attached.

This is the reason why the previous change is important - we can't drop
this refcount taken by of_phy_find_device() until something else holds
a reference on the device.  This resolves the leaked refcount caused by
using of_phy_connect() or of_phy_attach().

Even without the above changes, these drivers are leaking by calling
of_phy_find_device().  These drivers are addressed by adding the
appropriate release of that refcount.

The mdiobus code also suffered from the same kind of leak, but thankfully
this only happened in one place - the mdio-mux code.

I also found that the try_module_get() in the phy layer code was utterly
useless: phydev->dev.driver was guaranteed to always be NULL, so
try_module_get() was always being called with a NULL argument.  I proved
this with my SFP code, which declares its own MDIO bus - the module use
count was never incremented irrespective of how I set the MDIO bus up.
This allowed the MDIO bus code to be removed from the kernel while there
were still PHYs attached to it.

One other bug was discovered: while using in-band-status with mvneta, it
was found that if a real phy is attached with in-band-status enabled,
and another ethernet interface is using the fixed-phy infrastructure, the
interface using the fixed-phy infrastructure is configured according to
the other interface using the in-band-status - which is caused by the
fixed-phy code not verifying that the phy_device passed in is actually
a fixed-phy device, rather than a real MDIO phy.

Lastly, having mdio_bus reversing phy_device_register() internals seems
like a layering violation - it's trivial to move that code to the phy
device layer.

[PATCH 1/9] phy: fix of_mdio_find_bus() device refcount leak

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-22 16:18:11

of_mdio_find_bus() leaks a struct device refcount, caused by using
class_find_device() and not realising that the device reference has
its refcount incremented:

 * Note, you will need to drop the reference with put_device() after use.
...
        while ((dev = class_dev_iter_next(&iter))) {
                if (match(dev, data)) {
                        get_device(dev);
                        break;
                }

Update the comment, and arrange for the phy code to drop this refcount
when disposing of a reference to it.

[PATCH 2/9] net: dsa: fix of_mdio_find_bus() device refcount leak

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-22 16:18:20

Current users of of_mdio_find_bus() leak a struct device refcount, as
they fail to clean up the reference obtained inside class_find_device().

Fix the DSA code to properly refcount the returned MDIO bus by:
1. taking a reference on the struct device whenever we assign it to
   pd->chip[x].host_dev.
2. dropping the reference when we overwrite the existing reference.
3. dropping the reference when we free the data structure.
4. dropping the initial reference we obtained after setting up the
   platform data structure, or on failure.

In step 2 above, where we obtain a new MDIO bus, there is no need to
take a reference on it as we would only have to drop it immediately
after assignment again, iow:

	put_device(cd->host_dev);	/* drop original assignment ref */
	cd->host_dev = get_device(&mdio_bus_switch->dev); /* get our ref */
	put_device(&mdio_bus_switch->dev); /* drop of_mdio_find_bus ref */

[PATCH 3/9] phy: fix mdiobus module safety

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-22 16:18:34

Re-implement the mdiobus module refcounting to ensure that we actually
ensure that the mdiobus module code does not go away while we might call
into it.

The old scheme using bus->dev.driver was buggy, because bus->dev is a
class device which never has a struct device_driver associated with it,
and hence the associated code trying to obtain a refcount did nothing
useful.

Instead, take the approach that other subsystems do: pass the module
when calling mdiobus_register(), and record that in the mii_bus struct.
When we need to increment the module use count in the phy code, use
this stored pointer.  When the phy is deteched, drop the module
refcount, remembering that the phy device might go away at that point.

This doesn't stop the mii_bus going away while there are in-use phys -
it merely stops the underlying code vanishing.

[PATCH 4/9] phy: add proper phy struct device refcounting

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-22 16:18:50

Take a refcount on the phy struct device when the phy device is attached
to a network device, and drop it after it's detached.  This ensures that
a refcount is held on the phy device while the device is being used by
a network device, thereby preventing the phy_device from being
unexpectedly kfree()'d by phy_device_release().

[PATCH 5/9] of_mdio: fix MDIO phy device refcounting

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-22 16:19:06

bus_find_device() is defined as:

 * This is similar to the bus_for_each_dev() function above, but it
 * returns a reference to a device that is 'found' for later use, as
 * determined by the @match callback.

and it does indeed return a reference-counted pointer to the device:

        while ((dev = next_device(&i)))
                if (match(dev, data) && get_device(dev))
                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                        break;
        klist_iter_exit(&i);
        return dev;

What that means is that when we're done with the struct device, we must
drop that reference.  Neither of_phy_connect() nor of_phy_attach() did
this when phy_connect_direct() or phy_attach_direct() failed.

With our previous patch, phy_connect_direct() and phy_attach_direct()
take a new refcount on the phy device when successful, so we can drop
our local reference immediatley after these functions, whether or not
they succeeded.

[PATCH 6/9] net: fix phy refcounting in a bunch of drivers

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-22 16:19:16

of_phy_find_device() increments the phy struct device refcount,
which we need to properly balance.  Add code to network drivers
using this function to ensure that the struct device refcount is
correctly balanced.

[PATCH 8/9] phy: add phy_device_remove()

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-22 16:19:27

Add a phy_device_remove() function to complement phy_device_register(),
which undoes the effects of phy_device_register() by removing the phy
device from visibility, but not freeing it.

This allows these details to be moved out of the mdio bus code into
the phy code where this action belongs.

[PATCH 9/9] net: fix net_device refcounting

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-22 16:19:33

of_find_net_device_by_node() uses class_find_device() internally to
lookup the corresponding network device.  class_find_device() returns
a reference to the embedded struct device, with its refcount
incremented.

Add a comment to the definition in net/core/net-sysfs.c indicating the
need to drop this refcount, and fix the DSA code to drop this refcount
when the OF-generated platform data is cleaned up and freed.  Also
arrange for the ref to be dropped when handling errors.

Unfortunately, that's also not the only one - Cavium Thunder BGX also
fails.  Looking again at that driver, the driver structure doesn't lend
itself well to having the refcount balancing added to it due to the
multiple different paths which it obtains a phy_device.  I think this is
best left to the maintainers of this driver to fix, so I'm intending to
drop the change to that driver.

That's not a problem: the driver is already buggy in this regard today,
and that's won't be any different as a result of omitting it.  It's just
a shame to leave one instance unfixed.

[PATCH RESEND v3 1/9] phy: fix of_mdio_find_bus() device refcount leak

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-24 19:36:05

of_mdio_find_bus() leaks a struct device refcount, caused by using
class_find_device() and not realising that the device reference has
its refcount incremented:

 * Note, you will need to drop the reference with put_device() after use.
...
        while ((dev = class_dev_iter_next(&iter))) {
                if (match(dev, data)) {
                        get_device(dev);
                        break;
                }

Update the comment, and arrange for the phy code to drop this refcount
when disposing of a reference to it.

[PATCH RESEND v3 2/9] net: dsa: fix of_mdio_find_bus() device refcount leak

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-24 19:36:44

Current users of of_mdio_find_bus() leak a struct device refcount, as
they fail to clean up the reference obtained inside class_find_device().

Fix the DSA code to properly refcount the returned MDIO bus by:
1. taking a reference on the struct device whenever we assign it to
   pd->chip[x].host_dev.
2. dropping the reference when we overwrite the existing reference.
3. dropping the reference when we free the data structure.
4. dropping the initial reference we obtained after setting up the
   platform data structure, or on failure.

In step 2 above, where we obtain a new MDIO bus, there is no need to
take a reference on it as we would only have to drop it immediately
after assignment again, iow:

	put_device(cd->host_dev);	/* drop original assignment ref */
	cd->host_dev = get_device(&mdio_bus_switch->dev); /* get our ref */
	put_device(&mdio_bus_switch->dev); /* drop of_mdio_find_bus ref */

[PATCH RESEND v3 3/9] phy: fix mdiobus module safety

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-24 19:36:47

Re-implement the mdiobus module refcounting to ensure that we actually
ensure that the mdiobus module code does not go away while we might call
into it.

The old scheme using bus->dev.driver was buggy, because bus->dev is a
class device which never has a struct device_driver associated with it,
and hence the associated code trying to obtain a refcount did nothing
useful.

Instead, take the approach that other subsystems do: pass the module
when calling mdiobus_register(), and record that in the mii_bus struct.
When we need to increment the module use count in the phy code, use
this stored pointer.  When the phy is deteched, drop the module
refcount, remembering that the phy device might go away at that point.

This doesn't stop the mii_bus going away while there are in-use phys -
it merely stops the underlying code vanishing.

[PATCH RESEND v3 4/9] phy: add proper phy struct device refcounting

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-24 19:36:48

Take a refcount on the phy struct device when the phy device is attached
to a network device, and drop it after it's detached.  This ensures that
a refcount is held on the phy device while the device is being used by
a network device, thereby preventing the phy_device from being
unexpectedly kfree()'d by phy_device_release().

[PATCH RESEND v3 5/9] of_mdio: fix MDIO phy device refcounting

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-24 19:36:59

bus_find_device() is defined as:

 * This is similar to the bus_for_each_dev() function above, but it
 * returns a reference to a device that is 'found' for later use, as
 * determined by the @match callback.

and it does indeed return a reference-counted pointer to the device:

        while ((dev = next_device(&i)))
                if (match(dev, data) && get_device(dev))
                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                        break;
        klist_iter_exit(&i);
        return dev;

What that means is that when we're done with the struct device, we must
drop that reference.  Neither of_phy_connect() nor of_phy_attach() did
this when phy_connect_direct() or phy_attach_direct() failed.

With our previous patch, phy_connect_direct() and phy_attach_direct()
take a new refcount on the phy device when successful, so we can drop
our local reference immediatley after these functions, whether or not
they succeeded.

[PATCH RESEND v3 6/9] net: fix phy refcounting in a bunch of drivers

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-24 19:37:06

of_phy_find_device() increments the phy struct device refcount, which
we need to properly balance.  Add code to network drivers using this
function to ensure that the struct device refcount is correctly
balanced.

For xgene, looking back in the history, we should be able to use
of_phy_connect() with a zero flags argument for the DT case as this is
how the driver used to operate prior to de7b5b3d790a ("net: eth: xgene:
change APM X-Gene SoC platform ethernet to support ACPI").

This leaves the Cavium Thunder BGX unfixed; fixing this driver is a
complicated task, one which the maintainers need to be involved with.

[PATCH RESEND v3 8/9] phy: add phy_device_remove()

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-24 19:37:18

Add a phy_device_remove() function to complement phy_device_register(),
which undoes the effects of phy_device_register() by removing the phy
device from visibility, but not freeing it.

This allows these details to be moved out of the mdio bus code into
the phy code where this action belongs.

[PATCH RESEND v3 9/9] net: fix net_device refcounting

From: Russell King <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-24 19:41:47

of_find_net_device_by_node() uses class_find_device() internally to
lookup the corresponding network device.  class_find_device() returns
a reference to the embedded struct device, with its refcount
incremented.

Add a comment to the definition in net/core/net-sysfs.c indicating the
need to drop this refcount, and fix the DSA code to drop this refcount
when the OF-generated platform data is cleaned up and freed.  Also
arrange for the ref to be dropped when handling errors.

bus_find_device() is defined as:

 * This is similar to the bus_for_each_dev() function above, but it

and it does indeed return a reference-counted pointer to the device:

        while ((dev = next_device(&i)))
                if (match(dev, data) && get_device(dev))
                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                        break;
        klist_iter_exit(&i);
        return dev;

What that means is that when we're done with the struct device, we must
drop that reference.  Neither of_phy_connect() nor of_phy_attach() did
this when phy_connect_direct() or phy_attach_direct() failed.

With our previous patch, phy_connect_direct() and phy_attach_direct()
take a new refcount on the phy device when successful, so we can drop
our local reference immediatley after these functions, whether or not
they succeeded.
