Subject: [PATCH 6.1.y 2/2] net: enetc: allocate vf_state during PF probes
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2026 12:16:05 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260225041605.1563705-2-black.hawk@163.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260225041605.1563705-1-black.hawk@163.com>

[ Upstream commit e15c5506dd39885cd047f811a64240e2e8ab401b ]

In the previous implementation, vf_state is allocated memory only when VF
is enabled. However, net_device_ops::ndo_set_vf_mac() may be called before
VF is enabled to configure the MAC address of VF. If this is the case,
enetc_pf_set_vf_mac() will access vf_state, resulting in access to a null
pointer. The simplified error log is as follows.
