Subject: [PATCH net] net: sunhme: Return an error when we are out of slots

We only allocate enough space for four devices when the parent is a QFE. If
we couldn't find a spot (because five devices were created for whatever
reason), we would not return an error from probe(). Return ENODEV, which
was what we did before.

Fixes: 96c6e9faecf1 ("sunhme: forward the error code from pci_enable_device()")

I think the hash for that commit is acb3f35f920b.

However, I also think this problem was introduced by the first hunk of
5b3dc6dda6b1 ("sunhme: Regularize probe errors").

Which is:

--- a/drivers/net/ethernet/sun/sunhme.c
+++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/sun/sunhme.c
@@ -2945,7 +2945,6 @@ static int happy_meal_pci_probe(struct pci_dev *pdev,

goto err_out;
pci_set_master(pdev);
- err = -ENODEV;

if (!strcmp(prom_name, "SUNW,qfe") || !strcmp(prom_name, "qfe")) {
qp = quattro_pci_find(pdev);


Which leads me to wonder if simpler fixes would be either:

1) Reverting the hunk above
2) Or, more in keeping with the rest of that patch,
explicitly setting err before branching to err_out,
as you your patch does, but without other logic changes.

Something like this (*compile tested only!*:

index 1c16548415cd..2409e7d6c29e 100644

+ if (qfe_slot == 4) {
+ err = -ENOMEM;
goto err_out;
+ }
}

dev = devm_alloc_etherdev(&pdev->dev, sizeof(struct happy_meal));

Also, I am curious why happy_meal_pci_probe() doesn't just return instaed
of branching to err_out. As err_out only returns err. I guess there is a
reason for it. But simply returning would probably simplify error handling.
(I'm not suggesting that approach for this fix.)

Ah, sorry that's my local copy. The upstream commit is as you noted.

Yes. That's the one I should have blamed.

That's of course simpler, but this also does some cleanup to make it more
obvious what's going on.

I think it's because there used to be cleanup in err_out. But you're right,
we can just return directly and avoid a goto.

Sure. I do think there is merit in a minimal change as a fix.
But I don't feel strongly about it.
