[PATCH v2 0/3] net: extend eth_platform_get_mac_address()

[PATCH v2 0/3] net: extend eth_platform_get_mac_address()

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

This is a follow-up to a series I posted a while ago the goal of which
was to replace the at24 platform data with device properties. To do so
we need to somehow remove reading the MAC address from relevant board
files.

In my patches I used nvmem and MTD to read the MAC address from within
the davinci emac driver. It was suggested that we generalize it further
but since MTD doesn't support nvmem yet, the best we can do is to move
this code over to net core code.

The following patches modify the eth_platform_get_mac_address()
function which seems to be the best candidate for this code.

The first patch calls is_valid_ether_addr() on the read address so
that we're sure it's correct.

The last two patches add nvmem and MTD support to the function. In
order to stay compatible with existing users, nvmem and MTD will be
tried last - after device tree and arch-specific callback.

If this series gets accepted I will modify my previous patches to
use it instead of handcoding the same operations in davinci_emac.

v1 -> v2:
- dropped patches 1 & 2
- improved the MAC address verification and fixed a potential buffer
  overflow in patch 2/3

[PATCH v2 1/3] net: fortify eth_platform_get_mac_address()

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@baylibre.com>

We'll soon have more sources from which to read the MAC address in this
routine. Make sure the address is correct before returning it.

[PATCH v2 2/3] net: add support for nvmem to eth_platform_get_mac_address()

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@baylibre.com>

Many non-DT platforms read the MAC address from EEPROM. Usually it's
either done with callbacks defined in board files or from SoC-specific
ethernet drivers.

In order to generalize this, try to read the MAC from nvmem in
eth_platform_get_mac_address() using a standard lookup name:
"mac-address".

[PATCH v2 3/3] net: add MTD support to eth_platform_get_mac_address()

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@baylibre.com>

MTD doesn't support nvmem yet. Some platforms use MTD to read the MAC
address from SPI flash. If we want this function to generalize reading
the MAC address, we need to separately try to use MTD.

Never do success handling.  Always error handling.  Otherwise the code
is indent a lot and the error handling is far from the call.

Instead of handling the error we dereference the error pointer here.

True - we should add a check for IS_ERR(addr) here.

I would normally go this way but here we don't want to bail out when
we encounter an error but rather continue on to the next possible
source of a MAC address. We'll get -ENODEV from nvmem_cell_get() if
the lookup fails for "mac-address" but instead of returning an error
code we should then check if we can read the MAC from MTD.

Re: [PATCH v2 2/3] net: add support for nvmem to eth_platform_get_mac_address()

Maybe it would be simpler as three separate functions:

int of_eth_get_mac_address() <- rename existing function to this
int nvmem_eth_get_mac_address() <- patch 2
int mtd_eth_nvmem_get_mac_address() patch 3

	int ret;

	ret = of_eth_get_mac_address(dev, mac_addr);
	if (!ret)
		return 0;
	ret = nvmem_eth_get_mac_address(dev, mac_addr);
	if (ret == -EPROBEDEFER)
		return ret;
	if (!ret)
		return 0;
	ret = mtd_eth_nvmem_get_mac_address(dev, mac_addr);
	if (!ret)
		return 0;

	return -ENODEV;

It looks simpler as long as you don't add all the new routines
resulting from this approach. I've just tried to quickly implement
this solution and it resulted in much bigger and duplicated code
(checking the validity of mac_addr, copying it etc.). I would prefer
the current approach and would like to read someone else's opinion on
that.

Thanks,

The problem with doing it this way is... error handling is Hard(tm).
You missed the call to nvmem_cell_put() here.

and again here.

and here.

Without checking the semantics, a possible solution to that could be:

	if (!addr) {
		nvmem = nvmem_cell_get(dev, "mac-address");
		if (PTR_ERR(nvmem) == -EPROBE_DEFER)
			return -EPROBE_DEFER;
		if (IS_ERR(nvmem))
			return -ENODEV;
		addr = nvmem_cell_read(nvmem, &alen);
+		nvmem_cell_put(nvmem);
		if (IS_ERR(addr))
			return PTR_ERR(addr);
		if (alen != ETH_ALEN) {
			kfree(addr);
			return -ENODEV;
		}
		ether_addr_copy(addrbuf, addr);
		kfree(addr);
		addr = addrbuf;
	}
	if (!is_valid_ether_addr(addr))
		return -ENODEV;
	ether_addr_copy(mac_addr, addr);
	return 0;

A potential better solution would be to put this code in a separate
function, and then do:

	if (!addr)
		addr = eth_platform_get_nvmem_mac_address(dev, addrbuf);

which returns either NULL or addrbuf depending on whether it failed or
succeeded, which would probably end up with cleaner code.

It's not too bad.  There is two extra ether_addr_copy() calls and one
extra is_valid_ether_addr().  There are two extra alen declarations and
one extra addr declaration.  The functions don't share *that* much code.

Please take a look at v3 - I did it a bit differently but the idea is the same.
