This patch replaces the usage of netif_stop_queue with

in the u_ether driver. The netif_device_detach function not
only stops all
tx queues by calling netif_tx_stop_all_queues but also marks
the device as
removed by clearing the __LINK_STATE_PRESENT bit.
This change helps notify user space about the disconnection
of the device
more effectively, compared to netif_stop_queue, which only
stops a single
transmit queue.
This change effectively broke my USB ether setup.

Note, revert indeed helps. Should I send a revert?
I use configfs to setup USB EEM function and it worked till this
commit.
If needed, I can share my scripts, but I believe it's not needed
as here
we see a clear regression.

Without this patch, there may be a potential crash in a race
condition, as __LINK_STATE_PRESENT is monitored at many places in
the Network stack to determine the status of the link.
Could you please provide details on how this patch affects your
functionality? Are you experiencing connection problems or data
transfer interruptions?
In my case on mrfld (Intel Edison Arduino) using configfs with this
patch no config from host through dhcp is received. Manual setting
correct ipv4 addr / mask / gw still no connection.
Instead of reverting this patch, consider trying the upcoming patch
(soon to be available in the mainline) to see if it resolves your
issue.

This patch works for me with v6.7.0.
I need to revisit this. The patch in this topic landed in v6.7.0-rc1
(f49449fbc21e) and breaks the gadget mrfld (Intel Edison Arduino) and other
platforms as well.
The mentioned fix "usb: gadget: u_ether: Re-attach netif device to mirror
detachment*" * has landed in v6.8.0-rc1 (76c945730). What it does fix: I am
able to make a USB EEM function again.
However, now a hidden issue appears. With mrfld there is an external switch
to easily switch between host and device mode.
What is not fixed:
- when in device mode and unplugging/plugging the cable when using `ifconfig
usb0` the line "usb0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>" changes to
"usb0: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST>" as is supposed to, the route
table is updated and the dir `/sys/class/net/usb0` exists and in the dir
`cat carrier*` shows the carrier up and down counts. This is the expected
behavior.
- when in device mode and switching to host mode `ifconfig usb0` continues
to show "RUNNING", the route table is not modified and the dir
`/sys/class/net/usb0` no longer exists.
- switching to device mode again, USB EEM works fine, no changes to RUNNING
or the route table happen and the dir `/sys/class/net/usb0` still is non-
existing.
- unplugging/plugging the cable in device mode after this does not restore
the original situation.
This behavior I tested on v6.9.0-rc2 (with a few unrelated but essential
patches on top) and bisected back to this patch in v6.70-rc1.
It seems `netif_device_detach` does not completely clean up as expected and
`netif_device_attach` does not completely rebuild.
I am wondering if on other platforms this can be reproduced? If so, inho it
would be best to revert the both patches until the issue is resolved.
Thanks,
Ferry
I'm wondering why the /sys/class/net/usb0 directory is being removed when the network interface is still available.
This behavior seems not correct.
Exactly. And this didn't happen before the 2 patches.
To be precise: /sys/class/net/usb0 is not removed and it is a link, the
link target
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.0/dwc3.0.auto/gadget.0/net/usb0 no
longer exists
The gether_cleanup function should remove the interface along with the associated kobject,
and this function should only be called during the unloading of the driver or deleting the gadget.
Could you please confirm whether any of your custom modifications are removing the net interface kobject?
As far as know not. I have one tusb1210 (usb phy) and 2 dwc3 patches,
nothing related to gadgets or net.
For reference, patches are here:
https://github.com/htot/meta-intel-edison/tree/nanbield/meta-intel-edison-bsp/recipes-kernel/linux/files
0001-phy-ti-tusb1210-write-to-scratch-on-power-on.patch
0001a-usb-dwc3-core-Fix-dwc3_core_soft_reset-before-anythi.patch
044-REVERTME-usb-dwc3-gadget-skip-endpoints-ep-18-in-out.patch
Seems (just guessing) gether_cleanup is being called due to the switch
to host mode, but cleanup only partly succeeds. Now I'm finding I can
make the net interface disappear with `ip link set dev usb0 down` and
the broken link goes away by destroying the gadget in configfs.
Is that intentional? Do I need to tear down the gadgets in reverse order
as on create when switching to host mode? That would be new.
What happens when you trigger a switch to host mode without actually
unplugging your cable?
Thanks,
Hardik
