On RZ/G3S SMARC Carrier II board having RGMII connections b/w Ethernet
MACs and PHYs it has been discovered that doing unbind/bind for ravb
driver in a loop leads to wrong speed and duplex for Ethernet links and
broken connectivity (the connectivity cannot be restored even with
bringing interface down/up). Before doing unbind/bind the Ethernet
interfaces were configured though systemd. The sh instructions used to
do unbind/bind were:
$ cd /sys/bus/platform/drivers/ravb/
$ while :; do echo 11c30000.ethernet > unbind ; \
echo 11c30000.ethernet > bind; done
It has been discovered that there is a race b/w IOCTLs initialized by
systemd at the response of success binding and the
"ravb_write(ndev, CCC_OPC_RESET, CCC)" call in ravb_remove() as
follows:
1/ as a result of bind success the user space open/configures the
interfaces tough an IOCTL; the following stack trace has been
identified on RZ/G3S:

2/ this call may execute concurrently with ravb_remove() as the
unbind/bind operation was executed in a loop
3/ if the operation mode is changed to RESET (through
ravb_write(ndev, CCC_OPC_RESET, CCC) call in ravb_remove())
while the above ravb_open() is in progress it may lead to MAC
(or PHY, or MAC-PHY connection, the right point hasn't been identified
at the moment) to be broken, thus the Ethernet connectivity fails to
restore.
The simple fix for this is to move ravb_write(ndev, CCC_OPC_RESET, CCC))
after unregister_netdev() to avoid resetting the controller while the
netdev interface is still registered.
To avoid future issues in ravb_remove(), the patch follows the proper order
of operations in ravb_remove(): reverse order compared with ravb_probe().
This avoids described races as the IOCTLs as well as unregister_netdev()
(called now at the beginning of ravb_remove()) calls rtnl_lock() before
continuing and IOCTLs check (though devinet_ioctl()) if device is still
registered just after taking the lock:
int devinet_ioctl(struct net *net, unsigned int cmd, struct ifreq *ifr)
{
// ...
rtnl_lock();
ret = -ENODEV;
dev = __dev_get_by_name(net, ifr->ifr_name);
if (!dev)
goto done;
// ...
done:
rtnl_unlock();
out:
return ret;
}

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
