4 Subject: of: net: pass the dst buffer to of_get_mac_address()
6 of_get_mac_address() returns a "const void*" pointer to a MAC address.
7 Lately, support to fetch the MAC address by an NVMEM provider was added.
8 But this will only work with platform devices. It will not work with
9 PCI devices (e.g. of an integrated root complex) and esp. not with DSA
12 There is an of_* variant of the nvmem binding which works without
13 devices. The returned data of a nvmem_cell_read() has to be freed after
14 use. On the other hand the return of_get_mac_address() points to some
15 static data without a lifetime. The trick for now, was to allocate a
16 device resource managed buffer which is then returned. This will only
17 work if we have an actual device.
19 Change it, so that the caller of of_get_mac_address() has to supply a
20 buffer where the MAC address is written to. Unfortunately, this will
21 touch all drivers which use the of_get_mac_address().
23 Usually the code looks like:
26 addr = of_get_mac_address(np);
28 ether_addr_copy(ndev->dev_addr, addr);
30 This can then be simply rewritten as:
32 of_get_mac_address(np, ndev->dev_addr);
34 Sometimes is_valid_ether_addr() is used to test the MAC address.
35 of_get_mac_address() already makes sure, it just returns a valid MAC
36 address. Thus we can just test its return code. But we have to be
37 careful if there are still other sources for the MAC address before the
38 of_get_mac_address(). In this case we have to keep the
39 is_valid_ether_addr() call.
41 The following coccinelle patch was used to convert common cases to the
42 new style. Afterwards, I've manually gone over the drivers and fixed the
43 return code variable: either used a new one or if one was already
44 available use that. Mansour Moufid, thanks for that coccinelle patch!
51 - x = of_get_mac_address(y);
52 + x = of_get_mac_address(y, z);
54 - ether_addr_copy(z, x);
60 - if (<+... x ...+>) {}
74 - if (<+... x ...+>@e)
83 - x = of_get_mac_address(y, z);
84 + of_get_mac_address(y, z);
