Re: [PATCH net-next v2] net: dsa: Mock-up driver

Hi Florian
+static enum dsa_tag_protocol dsa_loop_get_protocol(struct dsa_switch *ds)
+{
+	dev_dbg(ds->dev, "%s\n", __func__);
+
+	return DSA_TAG_PROTO_NONE;
+}
I'm wondering how safe this is:

static const struct dsa_device_ops none_ops = {
        .xmit   = dsa_slave_notag_xmit,
        .rcv    = NULL,
};

        /*
         * If the CPU connects to this switch, set the switch tree
         * tagging protocol to the preferred tagging format of this
         * switch.
         */
        if (dst->cpu_switch == ds) {
                enum dsa_tag_protocol tag_protocol;

                tag_protocol = ops->get_tag_protocol(ds);
                dst->tag_ops = dsa_resolve_tag_protocol(tag_protocol);
                if (IS_ERR(dst->tag_ops))
                        return PTR_ERR(dst->tag_ops);

                dst->rcv = dst->tag_ops->rcv;
        }


static int dsa_switch_rcv(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev,
                          struct packet_type *pt, struct net_device *orig_dev)
{
        struct dsa_switch_tree *dst = dev->dsa_ptr;

        if (unlikely(dst == NULL)) {
                kfree_skb(skb);
                return 0;
        }

        return dst->rcv(skb, dev, pt, orig_dev);
}

static struct packet_type dsa_pack_type __read_mostly = {
        .type   = cpu_to_be16(ETH_P_XDSA),
        .func   = dsa_switch_rcv,
};

It looks like when a frame is received, we are going to dereference a
NULL pointer.

Either we need a NOP rcv function, or we don't register dsa_pack_type
if rcv is NULL.
