You would probably need to store the actual buffer size somewhere to keep the buffer handling consistent and simple in later code. > @@ -373,12 +489,10 @@ static netdev_tx_t ipheth_tx(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *net) > } > > memcpy(dev->tx_buf, skb->data, skb->len); > - if (skb->len < IPHETH_BUF_SIZE) > - memset(dev->tx_buf + skb->len, 0, IPHETH_BUF_SIZE - skb->len); > > usb_fill_bulk_urb(dev->tx_urb, udev, > usb_sndbulkpipe(udev, dev->bulk_out), > - dev->tx_buf, IPHETH_BUF_SIZE, > + dev->tx_buf, skb->len, > ipheth_sndbulk_callback, > dev); > dev->tx_urb->transfer_flags |= URB_NO_TRANSFER_DMA_MAP; This chunk looks unrelated from NCM support, and unconditionally changes the established behaviour even with legacy mode, why? Does that works even with old(er) devices? Thanks, Paolo
