Not from within dsa_port_setup, but from its caller dsa_tree_setup_switches.

No no, I'm pretty sure you can tell this is going to be a nightmare to
maintain these boolean states for all port types ;-)

And this is not a proper fix for the problem you've spotted. The problem
you've spotted is that devlink_port_unregister isn't called for the current
port if its setup failed, because dsa_port_teardown -- which is supposed to
be called unconditionally on error -- isn't called for the current port. Your
first attempt was correct, simply fix the loop in dsa_tree_setup_switches
to include the current port:


     ports_teardown:
    -       for (i = 0; i < port; i++)
    +       for (i = 0; i <= port; i++)


As for devlink_port_unregister, most kernel APIs unregistering objects are
self protected, so I'm tempted to propose the following patch for devlink:


    diff --git a/net/core/devlink.c b/net/core/devlink.c
    index 650f36379203..ab95607800d6 100644
    --- a/net/core/devlink.c
    +++ b/net/core/devlink.c
    @@ -6264,6 +6264,8 @@ void devlink_port_unregister(struct devlink_port *devlink_port)
     {
            struct devlink *devlink = devlink_port->devlink;
     
    +       if (!devlink_port->registered)
    +               return;
            devlink_port_type_warn_cancel(devlink_port);
            devlink_port_notify(devlink_port, DEVLINK_CMD_PORT_DEL);
            mutex_lock(&devlink->lock);


Otherwise we can protect the devlink port unregistering ourselves with:


    if (dlp->registered)
        devlink_port_unregister(dlp);


BTW that is the subtlety between "unregister" which considers that the object
_may_ have been registered, and "deregister" which assumes the object _was_
registered. Would you like to go ahead and propose the devlink patch?


Thanks for pointing this out,
