The race may happen when a device (e.g. YOTA 4G LTE Modem) is
unplugged while the system is downloading a large file from the Net.
Hardware breakpoints and Kprobes with delays were used to confirm that
the race does actually happen.
The race is on skb_queue ('next' pointer) between usbnet_stop()
and rx_complete(), which, in turn, calls usbnet_bh().
Here is a part of the call stack with the code where the changes to the
queue happen. The line numbers are for the kernel 4.1.0:
*0 __skb_unlink (skbuff.h:1517)
prev->next = next;
*1 defer_bh (usbnet.c:430)
spin_lock_irqsave(&list->lock, flags);
old_state = entry->state;
entry->state = state;
__skb_unlink(skb, list);
spin_unlock(&list->lock);
spin_lock(&dev->done.lock);
__skb_queue_tail(&dev->done, skb);
if (dev->done.qlen == 1)
tasklet_schedule(&dev->bh);
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&dev->done.lock, flags);
*2 rx_complete (usbnet.c:640)
state = defer_bh(dev, skb, &dev->rxq, state);
At the same time, the following code repeatedly checks if the queue is
empty and reads these values concurrently with the above changes:
*0 usbnet_terminate_urbs (usbnet.c:765)
/* maybe wait for deletions to finish. */
while (!skb_queue_empty(&dev->rxq)
&& !skb_queue_empty(&dev->txq)
&& !skb_queue_empty(&dev->done)) {
schedule_timeout(msecs_to_jiffies(UNLINK_TIMEOUT_MS));
set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
netif_dbg(dev, ifdown, dev->net,
"waited for %d urb completions\n", temp);
}
*1 usbnet_stop (usbnet.c:806)
if (!(info->flags & FLAG_AVOID_UNLINK_URBS))
usbnet_terminate_urbs(dev);
As a result, it is possible, for example, that the skb is removed from
dev->rxq by __skb_unlink() before the check
"!skb_queue_empty(&dev->rxq)" in usbnet_terminate_urbs() is made. It is
also possible in this case that the skb is added to dev->done queue
after "!skb_queue_empty(&dev->done)" is checked. So
usbnet_terminate_urbs() may stop waiting and return while dev->done
queue still has an item.
Locking in defer_bh() and usbnet_terminate_urbs() was revisited to avoid
this race.

cdc_ncm disagrees with usbnet about how much framing overhead should
be counted in the tx_bytes statistics, and tries 'fix' this by
decrementing tx_bytes on the transmit path. But statistics must never
be decremented except due to roll-over; this will thoroughly confuse
user-space. Also, tx_bytes is only incremented by usbnet in the
completion path.
Fix this by requiring drivers that set FLAG_MULTI_FRAME to set a
tx_bytes delta along with the tx_packets count.

Add a packet count in struct skb_data so these drivers can fill it

This patch removes a generic hard_header_len check from the usbnet
module that is causing dropped packages under certain circumstances
for devices that send rx packets that cross urb boundaries.
One example is the AX88772B which occasionally send rx packets that
cross urb boundaries where the remaining partial packet is sent with
no hardware header. When the buffer with a partial packet is of less
number of octets than the value of hard_header_len the buffer is
discarded by the usbnet module.
With AX88772B this can be reproduced by using ping with a packet
size between 1965-1976.
The bug has been reported here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29082
This patch introduces the following changes:
- Removes the generic hard_header_len check in the rx_complete
function in the usbnet module.
- Introduces a ETH_HLEN check for skbs that are not cloned from
within a rx_fixup callback.
- For safety a hard_header_len check is added to each rx_fixup
callback function that could be affected by this change.
These extra checks could possibly be removed by someone
who has the hardware to test.
- Removes a call to dev_kfree_skb_any() and instead utilizes the
dev->done list to queue skbs for cleanup.
The changes place full responsibility on the rx_fixup callback
functions that clone skbs to only pass valid skbs to the
usbnet_skb_return function.

This patch centralizes computing of max rx/tx qlen, because:
- RX_QLEN()/TX_QLEN() is called in hot path
- computing depends on device's usb speed, now we have ls/fs, hs, ss,
so more checks need to be involved
- in fact, max rx/tx qlen should not only depend on device USB
speed, but also depend on ethernet link speed, so we need to
consider that in future.
- if SG support is done, max tx qlen may need change too

Some drivers (sierra_net) need the status interrupt URB
active even when the device is closed, because they receive
custom indications from firmware. Add functions to refcount
the status interrupt URB submit/kill operation so that
sub-drivers and the generic driver don't fight over whether
the status interrupt URB is active or not.
A sub-driver can call usbnet_status_start() at any time, but
the URB is only submitted the first time the function is
called. Likewise, when the sub-driver is done with the URB,
it calls usbnet_status_stop() but the URB is only killed when
all users have stopped it. The URB is still killed and
re-submitted for suspend/resume, as before, with the same
refcount it had at suspend.

The link change is detected via the interrupt pipe, and bulk
pipes are responsible for transfering packets, so it is reasonable
to stop bulk transfer after link is reported as off.
Two adavantages may be obtained with stopping bulk transfer
after link becomes off:
- USB bus bandwidth is saved(USB bus is shared bus except for
USB3.0), for example, lots of 'IN' token packets and 'NYET'
handshake packets is transfered on 2.0 bus.
- probabaly power might be saved for usb host controller since
cancelling bulk transfer may disable the asynchronous schedule of
host controller.
With this patch, when link becomes off, about ~10% performance
boost can be found on bulk transfer of anther usb device which
is attached to same bus with the usbnet device, see below

It is normal for minidrivers accumulating frames to return NULL
from their tx_fixup function. We do not want to count this as a
drop, or log any debug messages. A different exit path is
therefore chosen for such drivers, skipping the debug message
and the tx_dropped increment.
The test for accumulating drivers was however completely bogus,
making the exit path selection depend on whether the user had
enabled tx_err logging or not. This would arbitrarily mess up
accounting for both accumulating and non-accumulating minidrivers,
and would result in unwanted debug messages for the accumulating
drivers.
Fix by testing for FLAG_MULTI_PACKET instead, which probably was
the intention from the beginning. This usage match the documented

deferred urbs are later accessed by calling usb_get_from_anchor()
for submission during interface resume. usb_get_from_anchor()
unanchors the urb but urb reference count remains same.
This causes the urb reference count to remain non-zero
after usb_free_urb() gets called and urb never gets freed.
Hence call usb_put_urb() after anchoring the urb to properly
balance the reference count for these deferred urbs. Also,
unanchor these deferred urbs during disconnect, to free them
up.

This patch introduces the below 3 usb command helpers:
usbnet_read_cmd / usbnet_write_cmd / usbnet_write_cmd_async
so that each low level driver doesn't need to implement them
by itself, and the dma buffer allocation for usb transfer and
runtime PM things can be handled just in one place.

Some device types support a form of power management in which
the device suggests to the host that the device may be suspended
now. Support for that is best located in usbnet.

Suspending an open usbnet device results in constant
rescheduling of usbnet_bh.
commit 65841fd5 "usbnet: handle remote wakeup asap"
refactored the usbnet_bh code to allow sharing the
urb allocate and submit code with usbnet_resume. In
this process, a test for, and immediate return on,
ENOLINK from rx_submit was unintentionally dropped.
The rx queue will not grow if rx_submit fails,
making usbnet_bh reschedule itself. This results
in a softirq storm if the error is persistent.
rx_submit translates the usb_submit_urb error
EHOSTUNREACH into ENOLINK, so this is an expected
and persistent error for a suspended device. The
old code tested for this condition and avoided
rescheduling. Putting this test back.

A usbnet device can share a multifunction device
with a storage device. If the storage device is autoresumed
the usbnet devices also needs to be autoresumed. Allocating
memory with GFP_KERNEL can deadlock in this case.
This should go back into all kernels that have
commit 65841fd513
That is 3.5
