r8152: Add Lenovo Powered USB-C Travel Hub

2021-01-23T14:48:41+00:00

commit cb82a54904a99df9e8f9e9d282046055dae5a730 upstream. This USB-C Hub (17ef:721e) based on the Realtek RTL8153B chip used to use the cdc_ether driver. However, using this driver, with the system suspended the device constantly sends pause-frames as soon as the receive buffer fills up. This causes issues with other devices, where some Ethernet switches stop forwarding packets altogether. Using the Realtek driver (r8152) fixes this issue. Pause frames are no longer sent while the host system is suspended.

r8152: support additional Microsoft Surface Ethernet Adapter variant

2020-06-03T06:17:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit c27a204383616efba5a4194075e90819961ff66a ] Device id 0927 is the RTL8153B-based component of the 'Surface USB-C to Ethernet and USB Adapter' and may be used as a component of other devices in future. Tested and working with the r8152 driver. Update the cdc_ether blacklist due to the RTL8153 'network jam on suspend' issue which this device will cause (personally confirmed).

r8152: add device id for Lenovo ThinkPad USB-C Dock Gen 2

2019-11-10T10:25:31+00:00

[ Upstream commit b3060531979422d5bb18d80226f978910284dc70 ] This device is sold as 'ThinkPad USB-C Dock Gen 2 (40AS)'. Chipset is RTL8153 and works with r8152. Without this, the generic cdc_ether grabs the device, and the device jam connected networks up when the machine suspends. Signed-off-by: Kazutoshi Noguchi Signed-off-by: David S.

cdc_ether: fix rndis support for Mediatek based smartphones

2019-09-19T07:08:00+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4d7ffcf3bf1be98d876c570cab8fc31d9fa92725 ] A Mediatek based smartphone owner reports problems with USB tethering in Linux. The verbose USB listing shows a rndis_host interface pair (e0/01/03 + 10/00/00), but the driver fails to bind with [ 355.960428] usb 1-4: bad CDC descriptors The problem is a failsafe test intended to filter out ACM serial functions using the same 02/02/ff class/subclass/protocol as RNDIS. The serial functions are recognized by their non-zero bmCapabilities. No RNDIS function with non-zero bmCapabilities were known at the time this failsafe was added. But it turns out that some Wireless class RNDIS functions are using the bmCapabilities field. These functions are uniquely identified as RNDIS by their class/subclass/protocol, so the failing test can safely be disabled. The same applies to the two types of Misc class RNDIS functions. Applying the failsafe to Communication class functions only retains the original functionality, and fixes the problem for the Mediatek based smartphone. Tow examples of CDC functional descriptors with non-zero bmCapabilities from Wireless class RNDIS functions are: 0e8d:000a Mediatek Crosscall Spider X5 3G Phone CDC Header: bcdCDC 1.10 CDC ACM: bmCapabilities 0x0f connection notifications sends break line coding and serial state get/set/clear comm features CDC Union: bMasterInterface 0 bSlaveInterface 1 CDC Call Management: bmCapabilities 0x03 call management use DataInterface bDataInterface 1 and 19d2:1023 ZTE K4201-z CDC Header: bcdCDC 1.10 CDC ACM: bmCapabilities 0x02 line coding and serial state CDC Call Management: bmCapabilities 0x03 call management use DataInterface bDataInterface 1 CDC Union: bMasterInterface 0 bSlaveInterface 1 The Mediatek example is believed to apply to most smartphones with Mediatek firmware. The ZTE example is most likely also part of a larger family of devices/firmwares. Suggested-by: Lars Melin Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

cdc_ether: flag the Cinterion AHS8 modem by gemalto as WWAN

[ Upstream commit 53765341ee821c0a0f1dec41adc89c9096ad694c ] The Cinterion AHS8 is a 3G device with one embedded WWAN interface using cdc_ether as a driver. The modem is controlled via AT commands through the exposed TTYs. AT+CGDCONT write command can be used to activate or deactivate a WWAN connection for a PDP context defined with the same command. UE supports one WWAN adapter. Signed-off-by: Bassem Boubaker Acked-by: Oliver Neukum Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

net: cdc_ether: fix divide by 0 on bad descriptors

cdc_ether: flag the u-blox TOBY-L2 and SARA-U2 as wwan

2017-10-09T23:03:32+00:00

The u-blox TOBY-L2 is a LTE Cat 4 module with HSPA+ and 2G fallback. This module allows switching to different USB profiles with the 'AT+UUSBCONF' command, and provides a ECM network interface when the 'AT+UUSBCONF=2' profile is selected. The u-blox SARA-U2 is a HSPA module with 2G fallback. The default USB configuration includes a ECM network interface. Both these modules are controlled via AT commands through one of the TTYs exposed. Connecting these modules may be done just by activating the desired PDP context with 'AT+CGACT=1,' and then running DHCP on the ECM interface.
