You can do usb_autopm_get_interface() on bind and a usb_autopm_put_interface() to make sure autosuspend doesn't complicate the testing. Just make a dummy manage_power function to make the subdriver registration happy. > static void > cdc_ncm_get_drvinfo(struct net_device *net, struct ethtool_drvinfo *info) > { > @@ -355,6 +384,7 @@ static const struct ethtool_ops cdc_ncm_ethtool_ops = { > int cdc_ncm_bind_common(struct usbnet *dev, struct usb_interface *intf, u8 data_altsetting) > { > struct cdc_ncm_ctx *ctx; > + struct usb_driver *subdriver; > struct usb_driver *driver; > u8 *buf; > int len; > @@ -507,6 +537,20 @@ advance: > dev->rx_urb_size = ctx->rx_max; > > ctx->tx_speed = ctx->rx_speed = 0; > + > + usb_driver_release_interface(driver, ctx->control); This does not make any sense to me... > + if (ctx->control == NULL){ > + printk("ctx->control is NULL!\n"); > + return -ENODEV; > + } > + if (&dev->status->desc == NULL){ > + printk("ctx->control is NULL!\n"); > + return -ENODEV; > + } > + subdriver = usb_cdc_wdm_register(ctx->control, > + &dev->status->desc, > + le16_to_cpu(ctx->mbim_desc->wMaxControlMessage), > + cdc_mbim_wdm_manage_power); You cannot use ctx->mbim_desc here. It is NULL for any non MBIM device. Just use some static max message constant instead, like qmi_wwan does. We don't know how to guess the the correct value until we know what the protocol is.
