Message-Id: <1284451921-9937-1-git-send-email-simon@sequanux.org> Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 10:12:01 +0200 From: Simon Guinot <simon@...uanux.org> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: Simon Guinot <sguinot@...ie.com> Subject: [PATCH] phylib: fix PAL state machine restart on resume From: Simon Guinot <sguinot@...ie.com> On resume, before starting the PAL state machine, check if the adjust_link() method is well supplied. If not, this would lead to a NULL pointer dereference in the phy_state_machine() function. This scenario can happen if the Ethernet driver call manually the PHY functions instead of using the PAL state machine. The mv643xx_eth driver is a such example.
