net: usb: catc: enable basic endpoint checking

2026-02-17T10:53:36+00:00

catc_probe() fills three URBs with hardcoded endpoint pipes without verifying the endpoint descriptors: - usb_sndbulkpipe(usbdev, 1) and usb_rcvbulkpipe(usbdev, 1) for TX/RX - usb_rcvintpipe(usbdev, 2) for interrupt status A malformed USB device can present these endpoints with transfer types that differ from what the driver assumes. Add a catc_usb_ep enum for endpoint numbers, replacing magic constants throughout. Add usb_check_bulk_endpoints() and usb_check_int_endpoints() calls after usb_set_interface() to verify endpoint types before use, rejecting devices with mismatched descriptors at probe time. Similar to - commit 90b7f2961798 ("net: usb: rtl8150: enable basic endpoint checking") which fixed the issue in rtl8150.

net: usb: remove unnecessary get_drvinfo code and driver versions

2026-01-31T01:44:18+00:00

Many USB network drivers define get_drvinfo functions which add no value over usbnet_get_drvinfo, only setting the driver name and version. usbnet_get_drvinfo automatically sets the driver name, and separate driver versions are now frowned upon in the kernel. Remove all driver versions and replace these get_drvinfo functions with references to usbnet_get_drvinfo where possible. Where that is not possible, remove unnecessary code to set the driver name. Also remove two unnecessary initializations from aqc111_get_drvinfo, an inaccurate comment in pegasus.c, and an unused macro in catc.c.

treewide, timers: Rename from_timer() to timer_container_of()

treewide: Switch/rename to timer_delete[_sync]()

2025-04-05T08:30:12+00:00

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree over and remove the historical wrapper inlines. Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

net: move from strlcpy with unused retval to strscpy

Follow the advice of the below link and prefer 'strscpy' in this subsystem. Conversion is 1:1 because the return value is not used. Generated by a coccinelle script.

usbb: catc: use correct API for MAC addresses

2021-10-25T14:34:02+00:00

Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look up. To maintain netdev->dev_addr in this tree we need to make all the writes to it got through appropriate helpers. In the case of catc we need a new temporary buffer to conform to the rules for DMA coherency. That in turn necessitates a reworking of error handling in probe().
