[PATCH net-next 00/24] cdc_ncm: many small and mostly trivial fixes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series ended up longer than expected, and it is still not
complete. There is more to come when time allows...

Most changes are trivial. Notable non-trivial changes are
 - removed filtering of identical speed notifications
 - tx_max calulation is changed to count the pad byte if
   necessary, and respect the device limit as an absolute
   upper limit even if it is too low according to the spec
 - remove the bug preventing SET_MAX_DATAGRAM_SIZE from having
   any effect
 - drop the pad-to-max if ZLPs are enabled
 - the driver specific VERSION is dropped
 - dev->hard_mtu is set to tx_max instead of max_datagram_size
   causing usbnet to calculate the qlen based on the real max
   size of tx skbs

This series has been tested, along with the previously posted
cdc_mbim series, on the NCM and MBIM devices I have:
 - Ericsson F5521gw (NCM)
 - Huawei E367 (MBIM)
 - D-Link DWM-156 A7 (MBIM w/ too low dwNtb{In,Out}MaxSize bug)
 - Sierra Wireless MC7710 (MBIM w/ ZLP and CDC Union bugs)

Apart from the D-Link modem dropping a lot less oversized
frames with the fix dedicated to it, there are no end user
noticable functional changes as a result of this series.  But
all the non-trivial changes I listed above are of course
detectable by users looking at that specific area (except maybe
the removed speed notification, which requires a device sending
duplicates to be noticable - I don't have any such device).
