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
So, it means that the /sys/class/net/usb0 is
present, but the symlink is
broken. In that case, the dwc3 driver should
recreate the device, and the
symlink should become active again
Yes, on first enabling gadget (when device mode is activated):
root@yuna:~# ls
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.0/dwc3.0.auto/gadget.0/
driver net power sound subsystem suspended uevent
Then switching to host mode:
root@yuna:~# ls
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.0/dwc3.0.auto/gadget.0/
ls: cannot access
'/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.0/dwc3.0.auto/gadget.0/':
No such file
or directory
Then back to device mode:
root@yuna:~# ls
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.0/dwc3.0.auto/gadget.0/
driver power sound subsystem suspended uevent
net is missing. But, network functions:
root@yuna:~# ping 10.42.0.1
PING 10.42.0.1 (10.42.0.1): 56 data bytes
Mass storage device is created and removed each time as expected.
So, what's the conclusion? Shall we move towards revert of those
two changes?
As promised, I have the tested the this patch with the dwc3 gadget.
I could not reproduce
the issue.
I can see the usb0 exist all the time and accessible regardless of
the role switching of the USB mode (peripheral <-> host)
Following are the logs:
//Host to device
console:/sys/bus/platform/devices/a800000.ssusb # echo "peripheral"
mode
console:/sys/bus/platform/devices/a800000.ssusb # ls
a800000.dwc3/gadget/net/
usb0
//device to host
console:/sys/bus/platform/devices/a800000.ssusb # echo "host" > mode
console:/sys/bus/platform/devices/a800000.ssusb # ls
a800000.dwc3/gadget/net/
usb0
That is weird. When I switch to host mode (using the physical switch),
the whole gadget directory is removed (now testing 6.9.0-rc5)
Switching back to device mode, that gadget directory is recreated. And
gadget/sound as well, but not gadget/net.

I strongly advise against reverting the patch solely based on the
observed issue of removing the /sys/class/net/usb0 directory while
the usb0 interface remains available.
There's more to it. I also mentioned that switching the role or
unplugging the cable leaves the usb0 connection.
I have while in host mode:
root@yuna:~# ifconfig -a usb0
usb0: flags=-28605<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DYNAMIC> mtu 1500
inet 10.42.0.221 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.42.0.255
inet6 fe80::a8bb:ccff:fedd:eef1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link>
You don't see that because you didn't create a connection at all.
Instead, I recommend enabling FTRACE to trace the functions involved
and identify which faulty call is responsible for removing usb0.
Switching from device -> host -> device:
root@yuna:~# trace-cmd record -p function_graph -l *gether_*

I don't know where to look exactly. Any hints?
do you see anything related to gether_cleanup() after eem_unbind() ?
Nope. It's a pitty that the trace formatting got messed up above. But as
you can see I traced gether_* and eem_*. After eem_unbind no traced
function is called, until I flip the switch to device mode.
The ... at the end is where I cut uninteresting eem_unwrap <-rx_complete
and eem_wrap <-eth_start_xmit lines.
If not then, you may try to enable tracing of TCP/IP stack and network side to check who deleting the sysfs entry
Yes, that's a vast amount of functions to trace. And I don't see how
that would be related to the patch we're discussing here. I was hoping
for a little more targeted hint.
You may recall the whole issue did not occur before this patch got applied.

According to current kernel architecture of u_ether driver, only
gether_cleanup should remove the usb0 interface along with its
kobject and sysfs interface.
I suggest sharing the analysis here to understand why this practice
is not followed in your use case or driver ?
Yes, I'll try to trace where that happens.
Nevertheless, the disappearance of the net/usb0 directory seems
harmless? But the usb: net device remaining after disconnect or role
switch is not good, as the route remains.
May be they are 2 separate problems. Could you try to reproduce what
happens if you make eem connection and then unplug?
I am curious why the driver was developed without adhering to the
kernel's gadget architecture.
I don't know what you mean here. Which driver do you mean?
I have the dwc3 IP base usb controller, Let me check
with this patch and
share result here. May be we need some fix in dwc3
Would have been nice if someone could test on other
controller as well. But
another instance of dwc3 is also very welcome.
It's quite possible, please test on your side.
We are happy to test any fixes if you come up with.
