<content type='text'>
Until very recently, the usbnet framework only had support functions
for devices which reported the link speed by explicitly querying the
PHY over a MDIO interface. However, the cdc_ether devices send
notifications when the link state or link speeds change and do not
expose the PHY (or modem) directly.

Support funtions (e.g. usbnet_get_link_ksettings_internal()) to directly
query state recorded by the cdc_ether driver were added in a previous patch.

Instead of cdc_ether spewing the link speed into the dmesg buffer,
record the link speed encoded in these notifications and tell the
usbnet framework to use the new functions to get link speed/state.

User space can now get the most recent link speed/state using ethtool.

v4: added to series since cdc_ether uses same notifications
    as cdc_ncm driver.

<content type='text'>
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.

usbnet_cdc_update_filter was getting the interface number from the
usb_interface struct in cdc_state-&gt;control. However, cdc_ncm does
not initialize that structure in its bind function, but uses
cdc_ncm_ctx instead. Getting intf directly from struct usbnet solves
the problem.

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).

<title>r8152: Add macpassthru support for ThinkPad Thunderbolt 3 Dock Gen 2</title>

ThinkPad Thunderbolt 3 Dock Gen 2 is another docking station that uses
RTL8153 based USB ethernet.

The device supports macpassthru, but it failed to pass the test of -AD,
-BND and -BD. Simply bypass these tests since the device supports this
feature just fine.

Also the ACPI objects have some differences between Dell's and Lenovo's,
so make those ACPI infos no longer hardcoded.

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.

<title>cdc_ether: fix rndis support for Mediatek based smartphones</title>
<updated>2019-09-13T20:08:13+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=4d7ffcf3bf1be98d876c570cab8fc31d9fa92725'/>
<id>urn:sha1:4d7ffcf3bf1be98d876c570cab8fc31d9fa92725</id>
<content type='text'>
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.
