f_ncm tx timeout can call us with null skb to flush
a pending frame.  In this case skb is NULL to begin
with but ceases to be null after dev-&gt;wrap() completes.

In such a case in-&gt;maxpacket will be read, even though
we've failed to check that 'in' is not NULL.

Though I've never observed this fail in practice,
however the 'flush operation' simply does not make sense with
a null usb IN endpoint - there's nowhere to flush to...
(note that we're the gadget/device, and IN is from the point
 of view of the host, so here IN actually means outbound...)

<title>usb: gadget: u_ether: support configuring interface names.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:63d152149b2d0860ccf8c4e6596b6175b2b7ace6</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch allows the administrator to configure the interface
name of a function using u_ether (e.g., eem, ncm, rndis).

Currently, all such interfaces, regardless of function type, are
always called usb0, usb1, etc. This makes it very cumbersome to
use more than one such type at a time, because userspace cannnot
easily tell the interfaces apart and apply the right
configuration to each one. Interface renaming in userspace based
on driver doesn't help, because the interfaces all have the same
driver. Without this patch, doing this require hacks/workarounds
such as setting fixed MAC addresses on the functions, and then
renaming by MAC address, or scraping configfs after each
interface is created to find out what it is.

Setting the interface name is done by writing to the same
"ifname" configfs attribute that reports the interface name after
the function is bound. The write must contain an interface
pattern such as "usb%d" (which will cause the net core to pick
the next available interface name starting with "usb").
This patch does not allow writing an exact interface name (as
opposed to a pattern) because if the interface already exists at
bind time, the bind will fail and the whole gadget will fail to
activate. This could be allowed in a future patch.

For compatibility with current userspace, when reading an ifname
that has not currently been set, the result is still "(unnamed
net_device)". Once a write to ifname happens, then reading ifname
will return whatever was last written.

Tested by configuring an rndis function and an ncm function on
the same gadget, and writing "rndis%d" to ifname on the rndis
function and "ncm%d" to ifname on the ncm function. When the
gadget was bound, the rndis interface was rndis0 and the ncm
interface was ncm0.

<content type='text'>
Fix the MTU size issue with RX packet size as the host sends the packet
with extra bytes containing ethernet header. This causes failure when
user sets the MTU size to the maximum i.e. 15412. In this case the
ethernet packet received will be of length 15412 plus the ethernet header
length. This patch fixes the issue where there is a check that RX packet
length must not be more than max packet length.

<title>usb: gadget: u_ether: enable qmult on SuperSpeed Plus as well</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4eea21dc67b0c6ba15ae41b1defa113a680a858e</id>
<content type='text'>
The u_ether driver has a qmult setting that multiplies the
transmit queue length (which by default is 2).

The intent is that it should be enabled at high/super speed, but
because the code does not explicitly check for USB_SUPER_PLUS,
it is disabled at that speed.

Fix this by ensuring that the queue multiplier is enabled for any
wired link at high speed or above. Using &gt;= for USB_SPEED_*
constants seems correct because it is what the gadget_is_xxxspeed
functions do.

The queue multiplier substantially helps performance at higher
speeds. On a direct SuperSpeed Plus link to a Linux laptop,
iperf3 single TCP stream:

Before (qmult=1): 1.3 Gbps
After  (qmult=5): 3.2 Gbps

snprintf returns the actual length of the buffer created; however,
this is not the case if snprintf truncates its parameter.
See https://lwn.net/Articles/69419/ for a detailed explanation.
The current code correctly handles this case at the expense
of extra code in the return statement.

scnprintf does returns the actual length of the buffer created
making the ?: operator unnecessary in the return
statement.

This change does not alter the functionality of the code.

On spin lock release in rx_submit, gether_disconnect get a chance to
run, it makes port_usb NULL, rx_submit access NULL port USB, hence null
pointer crash.

Fixed by releasing the lock in rx_submit after port_usb is used.

A follow-up patch will add a notifier type NETDEV_PRE_CHANGEADDR, which
allows vetoing of MAC address changes. One prominent path to that
notification is through dev_set_mac_address(). Therefore give this
function an extack argument, so that it can be packed together with the
notification. Thus a textual reason for rejection (or a warning) can be
communicated back to the user.

list_for_each_entry_safe() is not safe for deleting entries from the
list if the spin lock, which protects it, is released and reacquired during
the list iteration. Fix this issue by replacing this construction with
a simple check if list is empty and removing the first entry in each
iteration. This is almost equivalent to a revert of the commit mentioned in
the Fixes: tag.
