net: phy: fix a return path in get_phy_c45_ids()

2026-04-12T21:16:05Z

The return value of phy_c45_probe_present() is stored in "ret", not "phy_reg", fix this. "phy_reg" always has a positive value if we reach this return path (since it would have returned earlier otherwise), which means that the original goal of the patch of not considering -ENODEV fatal wasn't achieved.

net: phy: add support for disabling PHY-autonomous EEE

2026-04-12T18:33:23Z

Some PHYs (e.g. Broadcom BCM54xx, Realtek RTL8211F) implement autonomous EEE where the PHY manages LPI signaling without forwarding it to the MAC. This conflicts with MAC drivers that implement their own LPI control. Add a .disable_autonomous_eee callback to struct phy_driver and call it from phy_support_eee(). When a MAC driver indicates it supports EEE via phy_support_eee(), the PHY's autonomous EEE is automatically disabled so the MAC can manage LPI entry/exit.

It first takes triggers_list_lock and then RTNL. A classical AB-BA deadlock. phy_led_triggers_registers() does not require the RTNL, it does not make any calls into the network stack which require protection. There is also no requirement the PHY has been attached to a MAC, the triggers only make use of phydev state. This allows the call to phy_led_triggers_registers() to be placed elsewhere. PHY probe() and release() don't hold RTNL, so solving the AB-BA deadlock.

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28Z

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

net: phy: initialize the port support based on the PHY's for OF ports

2026-02-13T01:44:55Z

With the phy_port infrastructure came an ethernet-connector binding, allowing to represent the MDI of a PHY in devicetree. This allows specifying the mediums and pairs of a port. Let's initialize the port's supported list based on what the PHY reports, so that we can then filter it with what the connector allows using.
