usbnet: smsc95xx: fix link detection for disabled autonegotiation

2016-05-31T21:22:23+00:00

To detect link status up/down for connections where autonegotiation is
explicitly disabled, we don't get an irq but need to poll the status
register for link up/down detection.
This patch adds a workqueue to poll for link status.

Pull tty and serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here's the large TTY and Serial driver update for 4.7-rc1.

  A few new serial drivers are added here, and Peter has fixed a bunch
  of long-standing bugs in the tty layer and serial drivers as normal.
  Full details in the shortlog.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

net: usb: ch9200: use kmemdup

2016-05-20T23:50:07+00:00

Use kmemdup when some other buffer is immediately copied into allocated
region. It replaces call to allocation followed by memcpy, by a single
call to kmemdup.

net: cdc_ncm: update datagram size after changing mtu

2016-05-20T23:30:43+00:00

Current implementation updates the mtu size and notify cdc_ncm
device using USB_CDC_SET_MAX_DATAGRAM_SIZE request about datagram
size change instead of changing rx_urb_size.

Whenever mtu is being changed, datagram size should also be
updated. Also updating maxmtu formula so it takes max_datagram_size with
use of cdc_ncm_max_dgram_size() and not ctx.

asix: Fix offset calculation in asix_rx_fixup() causing slow transmissions

2016-05-17T18:02:33+00:00

In testing with HiKey, we found that since
commit 3f30b158eba5 ("asix: On RX avoid creating bad Ethernet
frames"),
we're seeing lots of noise during network transfers:

[  239.027993] asix 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: asix_rx_fixup() Data Header synchronisation was lost, remaining 988
[  239.037310] asix 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: asix_rx_fixup() Bad Header Length 0x54ebb5ec, offset 4
[  239.045519] asix 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: asix_rx_fixup() Bad Header Length 0xcdffe7a2, offset 4
[  239.275044] asix 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: asix_rx_fixup() Data Header synchronisation was lost, remaining 988
[  239.284355] asix 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: asix_rx_fixup() Bad Header Length 0x1d36f59d, offset 4
[  239.292541] asix 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: asix_rx_fixup() Bad Header Length 0xaef3c1e9, offset 4
[  239.518996] asix 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: asix_rx_fixup() Data Header synchronisation was lost, remaining 988
[  239.528300] asix 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: asix_rx_fixup() Bad Header Length 0x2881912, offset 4
[  239.536413] asix 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: asix_rx_fixup() Bad Header Length 0x5638f7e2, offset 4

And network throughput ends up being pretty bursty and slow with
a overall throughput of at best ~30kB/s (where as previously we
got 1.1MB/s with the slower USB1.1 "full speed" host).

We found the issue also was reproducible on a x86_64 system,
using a "high-speed" USB2.0 port but the throughput did not
measurably drop (possibly due to the scp transfer being cpu
bound on my slow test hardware).

After lots of debugging, I found the check added in the
problematic commit seems to be calculating the offset
incorrectly.

In the normal case, in the main loop of the function, we do:
(where offset is zero, or set to "offset += (copy_length + 1) &
0xfffe" in the previous loop)
    rx->header = get_unaligned_le32(skb->data +
                                    offset);
    offset += sizeof(u32);

But the problematic patch calculates:
    offset = ((rx->remaining + 1) & 0xfffe) + sizeof(u32);
    rx->header = get_unaligned_le32(skb->data + offset);

Adding some debug logic to check those offset calculation used
to find rx->header, the one in problematic code is always too
large by sizeof(u32).

Thus, this patch removes the incorrect " + sizeof(u32)" addition
in the problematic calculation, and resolves the issue.
