2016-12-25ktime: Cleanup ktime_set() usageThomas Gleixner
ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value needs to be converted. For anything where the Seconds argument is 0, this is pointless and can be replaced with a simple assignment.

2016-07-04cdc_ncm: workaround for EM7455 "silent" data interfaceBjørn Mork
Several Lenovo users have reported problems with their Sierra Wireless EM7455 modem. The driver has loaded successfully and the MBIM management channel has appeared to work, including establishing a connection to the mobile network. But no frames have been received over the data interface. The problem affects all EM7455 and MC7455, and is assumed to affect other modems based on the same Qualcomm chipset and baseband firmware. Testing narrowed the problem down to what seems to be a firmware timing bug during initialization. Adding a short sleep while probing is sufficient to make the problem disappear. Experiments have shown that 1-2 ms is too little to have any effect, while 10-20 ms is enough to reliably succeed.

2015-12-23net: cdc_ncm: avoid changing RX/TX buffers on MTU changesBjørn Mork
NCM buffer sizes are negotiated with the device independently of the network device MTU. The RX buffers are allocated by the usbnet framework based on the rx_urb_size value set by cdc_ncm. A single RX buffer can hold a number of MTU sized packets. The default usbnet change_mtu ndo only modifies rx_urb_size if it is equal to hard_mtu. And the cdc_ncm driver will set rx_urb_size and hard_mtu independently of each other, based on dwNtbInMaxSize and dwNtbOutMaxSize respectively. It was therefore assumed that usbnet_change_mtu() would never touch rx_urb_size. This failed to consider the case where dwNtbInMaxSize and dwNtbOutMaxSize happens to be equal. Fix by implementing an NCM specific change_mtu ndo, modifying the netdev MTU without touching the buffer size settings. Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 77b0a099674a ("cdc-ncm: use common parser") added a dangerous new trust in the CDC functional descriptors presented by the device, unconditionally assuming that any device handled by the driver has a CDC Union descriptor. This descriptor is required by the NCM and MBIM specs, but crashing on non-compliant devices is still unacceptable. Not only will that allow malicious devices to crash the kernel, but in this case it is also well known that there are non-compliant real devices on the market - as shown by the comment accompanying the IAD workaround in the same function. The Sierra Wireless EM7305 is an example of such device, having a CDC header and a CDC MBIM descriptor but no CDC Union: Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 12 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 1 bInterfaceClass 2 Communications bInterfaceSubClass 14 bInterfaceProtocol 0 iInterface 0 CDC Header: bcdCDC 1.10 CDC MBIM: bcdMBIMVersion 1.00 wMaxControlMessage 4096 bNumberFilters 16 bMaxFilterSize 128 wMaxSegmentSize 4064 bmNetworkCapabilities 0x20 8-byte ntb input size Endpoint Descriptor: ..

2015-07-09cdc_ncm: Add support for moving NDP to end of NCM frameEnrico Mioso
NCM specs are not actually mandating a specific position in the frame for the NDP (Network Datagram Pointer). However, some Huawei devices will ignore our aggregates if it is not placed after the datagrams it points to. Add support for doing just this, in a per-device configurable way. While at it, update NCM subdrivers, disabling this functionality in all of them, except in huawei_cdc_ncm where it is enabled instead. We aren't making any distinction between different Huawei NCM devices, based on what the vendor driver does. Standard NCM devices are left unaffected: if they are compliant, they should be always usable, still stay on the safe side. This change has been tested and working with a Huawei E3131 device (which works regardless of NDP position), a Huawei E3531 (also working both ways) and an E3372 (which mandates NDP to be after indexed datagrams).

But statistics must never be decremented except due to roll-over; this will thoroughly confuse user-space. Also, tx_bytes is only incremented by usbnet in the completion path.

The min_tx_pkt variable decides the cutoff point where the driver will stop padding out NTBs to maximum size. The padding is a tradeoff where we use some USB bus bandwidth to allow the device to receive fixed size buffers. Different devices will have different optimal settings, spanning from no padding at all to padding every NTB. There is no way to automatically figure out which setting is best for a specific device. The default value is a reasonable tradeoff, calculated based on the USB packet size and out NTB max size. This may have to be changed along with any tx_max changes.

It gives device limits which the host must obey when configuring the protocol aggregation variables.

A sysfs group - makes it clear that this is a driver specific userspace API, and - allows us to export the real values instead of some translated version, and - lets us include more aggregation variables which were impossible to force into the ethtool API.

2014-05-16net: cdc_ncm/cdc_mbim: adding NCM protocol statisticsBjørn Mork
To have an idea of the effects of the protocol coalescing it's useful to have some counters showing the different aspects. Due to the asymmetrical usbnet interface the netdev rx_bytes counter has been counting real received payload, while the tx_bytes counter has included the NCM/MBIM framing overhead. This overhead can be many times the payload because of the aggressive padding strategy of this driver, and will vary a lot depending on device and traffic. With very few exceptions, users are only interested in the payload size. Having an somewhat accurate payload byte counter is particularly important for mobile broadband devices, which many NCM devices and of course all MBIM devices are. Users and userspace applications will use this counter to monitor account quotas. Having protocol specific counters for the overhead, we are now able to correct the tx_bytes netdev counter so that it shows the real payload Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-05-16net: cdc_ncm: use ethtool to tune coalescing settingsBjørn Mork
Datagram coalescing is an integral part of the NCM and MBIM protocols, intended to reduce the interrupt load primarily on the device end of the USB link. As with all coalescing solutions, there is a trade-off between buffering and interrupts. The current defaults are based on the assumption that device side buffers should be the limiting factor. However, many modern high speed LTE modems suffers from buffer-bloat, making this assumption fail. This results in sub-optimal performance due to excessive coalescing. And in cases where such modems are connected to cheap embedded hosts there is often severe buffer allocation issues, giving very noticeable performance degradation . A start on improving this is going from build time hard coded limits to per device user configurable limits. The ethtool coalescing API was selected as user interface because, although the tuned values are buffer sizes, these settings directly control datagram coalescing.

The NCM class match in the cdc_mbim driver is confusing and cause unexpected behaviour. The USB core guarantees that a USB interface is in altsetting 0 when probing starts. This means that devices implementing a NCM 1.0 backwards compatible MBIM function (a "NCM/MBIM function") always hit the NCM entry in the cdc_mbim driver match table. Such functions will never match any of the MBIM entries. This causes unexpeced behaviour for cases where the NCM and MBIM entries are differet, which is currently the case for all except Ericsson devices. Improve the probing of NCM/MBIM functions by looking up the device again in the cdc_mbim match table after switching to the MBIM identity. The shared altsetting selection is updated to better accommodate the new probing logic, returning the preferred altsetting for the control interface instead of the data interface. The control interface altsetting update is moved to the cdc_mbim driver. It is never necessary to change the control interface altsetting for NCM.

2014-05-05net: cdc_ncm: fix buffer overflowBjørn Mork
Commit 4d619f625a60 ("net: cdc_ncm: no point in filling up the NTBs if we send ZLPs") changed the padding logic for devices with the ZLP flag set. This meant that frames of any size will be sent without additional padding, except for the single byte added if the size is a multiple of the USB packet size. But if the unpadded size is identical to the maximum frame size, and the maximum size is a multiplum of the USB packet size, then this one-byte padding will overflow the buffer. Prevent padding if already at maximum frame size, letting usbnet transmit a ZLP instead in this case.

2014-03-20net: cdc_ncm: respect operator preferred MTU reported by MBIMBen Chan
According to "Universal Serial Bus Communications Class Subclass Specification for Mobile Broadband Interface Model, Revision 1.0, Errata-1" published by USB-IF, the wMTU field of the MBIM extended functional descriptor indicates the operator preferred MTU for IP data streams. This patch modifies cdc_ncm_setup to ensure that the MTU value set on the usbnet device does not exceed the operator preferred MTU indicated by wMTU if the MBIM device exposes a MBIM extended functional descriptor.

2014-03-18net: cdc_ncm: fix control message orderingBjørn Mork
This is a context modified revert of commit 6a9612e2cb22 ("net: cdc_ncm: remove ncm_parm field") which introduced a NCM specification violation, causing setup errors for some devices. These errors resulted in the device and host disagreeing about shared settings, with complete failure to communicate as the end result. The NCM specification require that many of the NCM specific control reuests are sent only while the NCM Data Interface is in alternate setting 0. Reverting the commit ensures that we follow this requirement.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives and hence don't need to include <linux/init.h>. Most are just a left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to code getting copied from one driver to the next.
