net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: propperly shutdown PPU re-enable timer on destroy
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The mv88e6xxx has an internal PPU that polls PHY state. If we want to
access the internal PHYs, we need to disable the PPU first. Because
that is a slow operation, a 10ms timer is used to re-enable it,
canceled with every access, so bulk operations effectively only
disable it once and re-enable it some 10ms after the last access.

If a PHY is accessed and then the mv88e6xxx module is removed before
the 10ms are up, the PPU re-enable ends up accessing a dangling pointer.

This especially affects probing during bootup. The MDIO bus and PHY
registration may succeed, but registration with the DSA framework
may fail later on (e.g. because the CPU port depends on another,
very slow device that isn't done probing yet, returning -EPROBE_DEFER).
In this case, probe() fails, but the MDIO subsystem may already have
accessed the MIDO bus or PHYs, arming the timer.

This is fixed as follows:
 - If probe fails after mv88e6xxx_phy_init(), make sure we also call
   mv88e6xxx_phy_destroy() before returning
 - In mv88e6xxx_remove(), make sure we do the teardown in the correct
   order, calling mv88e6xxx_phy_destroy() after unregistering the
   switch device.
 - In mv88e6xxx_phy_destroy(), destroy both the timer and the work item
   that the timer might schedule, synchronously waiting in case one of
   the callbacks already fired and destroying the timer first, before
   waiting for the work item.
 - Access to the PPU is guarded by a mutex, the worker acquires it
   with a mutex_trylock(), not proceeding with the expensive shutdown
   if that fails. We grab the mutex in mv88e6xxx_phy_destroy() to make
   sure the slow PPU shutdown is already done or won't even enter, when
   we wait for the work item.
