Thanks a lot for taking the time to test!
What do you think about this alternative? It should not limit the driver to only having phy-handle (having a fixed-link is valid too):
-----------------------------[ cut here ]----------------------------- From 598f7795389fb127726de199bb77fd7ddf5df096 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Date: Tue, 17 Aug 2021 15:14:57 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] net: mscc: ocelot: allow probing to continue with ports that fail to register
The existing ocelot device trees, like ocelot_pcb123.dts for example, have SERDES ports (ports 4 and higher) that do not have status = "disabled"; but on the other hand do not have a phy-handle or a fixed-link either.
So from the perspective of phylink, they have broken DT bindings.
Since the blamed commit, probing for the entire switch will fail when such a device tree binding is encountered on a port. There used to be this piece of code which skipped ports without a phy-handle:
phy_node = of_parse_phandle(portnp, "phy-handle", 0); if (!phy_node) continue;
but now it is gone.
Anyway, fixed-link setups are a thing which should work out of the box with phylink, so it would not be in the best interest of the driver to add that check back.
Instead, let's look at what other drivers do. Since commit 86f8b1c01a0a ("net: dsa: Do not make user port errors fatal"), DSA continues after a switch port fails to register, and works only with the ports that succeeded.
We can achieve the same behavior in ocelot by unregistering the devlink port for ports where ocelot_port_phylink_create() failed (called via ocelot_probe_port), and clear the bit in devlink_ports_registered for that port. This will make the next iteration reconsider the port that failed to probe as an unused port, and re-register a devlink port of type UNUSED for it. No other cleanup should need to be performed, since ocelot_probe_port() should be self-contained when it fails.
