No changes are made to + priv->mac while it is being used. Currently, rtnl_lock() watches over + the call to dpaa2_eth_connect_mac(), so it serves the purpose of + serializing this with all readers of priv->mac. + +- dpaa2_mac_connect() should run unlocked, because inside it are 2 + phylink calls with incompatible locking requirements: phylink_create() + requires that the rtnl_mutex isn't held, and phylink_fwnode_phy_connect() + requires that the rtnl_mutex is held. The only way to solve those + contradictory requirements is to let dpaa2_mac_connect() take + rtnl_lock() when it needs to. + +To solve both requirements, we need to identify the writer side of the +priv->mac pointer, which can be wrapped in a mutex private to the driver +in a future patch. The dpaa2_mac_connect() cannot be part of the writer +side critical section, because of an AB/BA deadlock with rtnl_lock(). + +So the strategy needs to be that where we prepare the DPMAC by calling +dpaa2_mac_connect(), and only make priv->mac point to it once it's fully +prepared. This ensures that the writer side critical section has the +absolute minimum surface it can. + +The reverse strategy is adopted in the dpaa2_eth_disconnect_mac() code +path. This makes sure that priv->mac is NULL when we start tearing down +the DPMAC that we disconnected from, and concurrent code will simply not +see it. + +No locking changes in this patch (concurrent code is still blocked by +the rtnl_mutex). + +Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean +Reviewed-by: Ioana Ciornei +Tested-by: Ioana Ciornei +Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni +--- + .../net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa2/dpaa2-eth.c | 21 +++++++++++-------- + 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) + +--- a/drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa2/dpaa2-eth.c ++++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa2/dpaa2-eth.c +@@ -4443,9 +4443,8 @@ static int dpaa2_eth_connect_mac(struct + err = dpaa2_mac_open(mac); + if (err) + goto err_free_mac; +- priv->mac = mac; + +- if (dpaa2_eth_is_type_phy(priv)) { ++ if (dpaa2_mac_is_type_phy(mac)) { + err = dpaa2_mac_connect(mac); + if (err && err != -EPROBE_DEFER) + netdev_err(priv->net_dev, "Error connecting to the MAC endpoint: %pe", +@@ -4454,11 +4453,12 @@ static int dpaa2_eth_connect_mac(struct + goto err_close_mac; + } + ++ priv->mac = mac; ++ + return 0; + + err_close_mac: + dpaa2_mac_close(mac); +- priv->mac = NULL; + err_free_mac: + kfree(mac); + return err; +@@ -4466,15 +4466,18 @@ err_free_mac: + + static void dpaa2_eth_disconnect_mac(struct dpaa2_eth_priv *priv) + { +- if (dpaa2_eth_is_type_phy(priv)) +- dpaa2_mac_disconnect(priv->mac); ++ struct dpaa2_mac *mac = priv->mac; ++ ++ priv->mac = NULL; + +- if (!dpaa2_eth_has_mac(priv)) ++ if (!mac) + return; + +- dpaa2_mac_close(priv->mac); +- kfree(priv->mac); +- priv->mac = NULL; ++ if (dpaa2_mac_is_type_phy(mac)) ++ dpaa2_mac_disconnect(mac); ++ ++ dpaa2_mac_close(mac); ++ kfree(mac); + } + + static irqreturn_t dpni_irq0_handler_thread(int irq_num, void *arg)
