{bp-19411} drivers/net/w5500: fix wrong variable and d_private assignment - #19612
Merged
Conversation
Fix two latent defects in the W5500 Ethernet driver: 1. NETDEV_RXERRORS() references non-existent variables (line 1351): In w5500_receive(), the error path uses &priv->dev but the function parameter is named self and the device field is w_dev. This compiles only because NETDEV_RXERRORS() expands to nothing without CONFIG_NETDEV_STATISTICS; enabling statistics breaks the build. 2. d_private set to the device array instead of the instance (line 2069): In w5500_initialize(), d_private was set to g_w5500 (the global array) instead of self (the current instance). This is harmless for device 0 (g_w5500 == &g_w5500[0]) but wrong for any devno > 0 — every callback that recovers the driver state via dev->d_private would operate on device 0's state.

Summary
Fix two latent defects in the W5500 Ethernet driver:
NETDEV_RXERRORS() references non-existent variables (line 1351): In w5500_receive(), the error path uses &priv->dev but the function parameter is named self and the device field is w_dev. This compiles only because NETDEV_RXERRORS() expands to nothing without CONFIG_NETDEV_STATISTICS; enabling statistics breaks the build.
d_private set to the device array instead of the instance (line 2069): In w5500_initialize(), d_private was set to g_w5500 (the global array) instead of self (the current instance). This is harmless for device 0 (g_w5500 == &g_w5500[0]) but wrong for any devno > 0 — every callback that recovers the driver state via dev->d_private would operate on device 0's state.
