I still cannot find in the code where a SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_MDB object
gets added without a prepare phase or a trans object, but it wouldn't hurt to
double check the presence of ds->ops->port_mdb_add before calling it anyway,
since a patch may actually bypass this prepare phase.
Your v1 patch was a bit confusing and changed the signature of the function
at the same time. Please check the callback where it is used, like this:
diff --git a/net/dsa/switch.c b/net/dsa/switch.c
index 4ec5b7f85d51..09d9286b27cc 100644
--- a/net/dsa/switch.c
+++ b/net/dsa/switch.c
@@ -153,6 +153,9 @@ static void dsa_switch_mdb_add_bitmap(struct dsa_switch *ds,
{
int port;
+ if (!ds->ops->port_mdb_add)
+ return;
+
for_each_set_bit(port, bitmap, ds->num_ports)
ds->ops->port_mdb_add(ds, port, mdb);
}
This will be easier to maintain. Please provide a simpler commit message,
this one is not relevant. Are you actually able to reproduce this stack
trace? If not, that is not necessary to add it to the commit message...
Thank you for your patience,
Vivien
