Subject: [PATCH net] net: dsa: microchip: fix probe of I2C-connected KSZ8563

Starting with commit eee16b147121 ("net: dsa: microchip: perform the
compatibility check for dev probed"), the KSZ switch driver now bails
out if it thinks the DT compatible doesn't match the actual chip:

ksz9477-switch 1-005f: Device tree specifies chip KSZ9893 but found
KSZ8563, please fix it!

Problem is that the "microchip,ksz8563" compatible is associated
with ksz_switch_chips[KSZ9893]. Same issue also affected the SPI driver
for the same switch chip and was fixed in commit b44908095612
("net: dsa: microchip: add separate struct ksz_chip_data for KSZ8563 chip").

Reuse ksz_switch_chips[KSZ8563] introduced in aforementioned commit
to get I2C-connected KSZ8563 probing again.

Fixes: eee16b147121 ("net: dsa: microchip: perform the compatibility check for dev probed")

In this commit, there is no KSZ8563 member in struct ksz_switch_chips.
Whether the fixes should be to this commit "net: dsa: microchip: add
separate struct ksz_chip_data for KSZ8563" where the member is
introduced.

I disagree. eee16b147121 introduced the check that made my device
not probe anymore, so that's what's referenced in Fixes:. Commit
b44908095612 should have had a Fixes: pointing at eee16b147121
as well, so users don't miss it. But if they miss it, they
will notice this at build-time anyway.

Cheers,
Ahmad

Thanks for the elaboration. I see it now. I will send a v2
with revised commit messages and Fixes:. Should I include
your Reviewed-by: with the commit message rewritten?

The KSZ9893, KSZ9563 and KSZ8563 all has the same chip id 0x00989300.
They belong to 3 port switch family. Differentiation is done based on
0x1F register. In the commit eee16b147121, there is no differentiation
based on 0x1F, device is selected based on chip id, all the three chips
will be identified as ksz9893 only. After the commit b44908095612,
KSZ8563 chips is identified based on 0x1F register.

So it sounds like two different fixes are needed? For recent kernels
this fix alone is sufficient. But for older kernels additional changes
are needed. Is it sufficient to backport existing patches, or are new
patches needed?

Please start fixing the current kernel. Once that is merged you can
post a fix for older kernels, referencing the merged fix.

I misunderstood the issue. It's indeed a single commit that broke
it. I just sent a v2 with a revised commit message and the correct
Fixes:. The fix can be cherry-picked on its own to any kernel
that contains the offending commit without any prerequisite
patches.

Cheers,
Ahmad
